Too Serious For Numbers

0: Hi. I am not experiencing any pain at all. I don't know why I'm even here.

1: I am completely unsure whether I am experiencing pain or itching or maybe I just have a bad taste in my mouth.

2: I probably just need a Band Aid.

3: This is distressing. I don't want this to be happening to me at all.

4: My pain is not fucking around.

5: Why is this happening to me??

6: Ow. Okay, my pain is super legit now.

7: I see Jesus coming for me and I'm scared.

8: I am experiencing a disturbing amount of pain. I might actually be dying. Please help.

9: I am almost definitely dying.

10: I am actively being mauled by a bear.

11: Blood is going to explode out of my face at any moment.

Too Serious For Numbers: You probably have ebola. It appears that you may also be suffering from Stigmata and/or pinkeye.



I was tempted to point out that the pain scale only goes to Ten but it occurs to me that if you are in fact suffering from Stigmata then (and only then) you are entitled to a pain rating higher then ten
I think this week, I'm at the "too serious for numbers". I feel as if my brain is at the verge of meltdown. and I still have three weeks to go. ::sigh:: definitely stigmata of the brain. Or maybe it's just ebola. You never know what those PhD's are doing up on the 8th floor....
One more board to go. then step 2. Then PATHOLOGY!!! ::big, happy smile:: as well as epic "go visit all your friends before you become a resident" road trips. I'm sure many stories and pictures to follow.

Oh, and there's also Eclipse, as my friend HemeOnc Doc reminded me of this morning. I'm excited about our future date.

Here's to the promised year!
