Three cups of coffee and a stack of continuation sheets.

By londonmedicgirl

It is 6.30am on a Friday morning and I am sitting at my desk, leaning over said stack of sheets, and typing here instead of writing up clerkings.

It has occurred to me that I have on 3 out of 5 days this week, been at the hospital when I didn’t need to be.
Tuesday- I stayed late.
Wednesday- We went in early even though we didn’t actually have anything timetabled all day (and got the priceless reward of being spotted being keen on the ward by Doctor-who-matters BEFORE 9am). 
Thursday- I realised at about 7pm that I’d run out of continuation sheets, and so because of my slight OCD tendancies, and general unwillingness to hand in anything that was written on different paper, I decided I’d go back up there and steal some more. Sure, I realise this is more of an example of how I am unorganised, and a moron, but who cares. I LOOKED keen even if I wasn’t really. Not that anyone saw me mind.

Back to the clerkings. They take 2 hours to do on the wards, and as I’ve discovered, about the same amount of time to write them up…. which does not bode well for me actually, especially as I’m procrastinating by blogging.

Ah well, at least today heralds the end of rotation, and if all goes well, I shall be relaxing in the pub at around midday, and settling into an afternoon and night of heavy drinking.

Make mine a G&T.

    Congratulations on your clerkings! Perhaps they’ll give you one to frame and show your grandchildren. I too shall be famous. My Land Law exam script will be the “What Not To Do” example for years to come. I would sue the Law School for infringement of my copyright, but I probably won’t be in the profession for much longer…

    He forgets that you don’t have to be in the profession to sue ;)

    Yes JB, but I don’t think my future job at ASDA will pay me enough to afford the legal fees!

  4. Josephine B Says:

    Yes but you can borrow the money from the till so long as you put the *exact* coins back :d

    Something makes me think you’ve done that before JB…

    Sorry for hijacking your comment box, MedicGirl!

    Hehe no, no but a Mr Velumyl did. And I bet he got about seven years to think about what he did ;)

  8. Josephine B Says:

    Yes, with nail varnish around the edge of the coins and limericks on the notes.

    Anyway, yes enough law and back to blood and gore please.
