Valuable Lessons

A good friend of mine recently reprimanded me for not updating my blog very often or at all.  I told her I didn't think we lived a very exciting life.  She adamantly disagreed, so I told her I would give my full effort.

I am currently doing a clinical rotation at the hospital here in town and it has been a very eye opening experience and one that I have absolutely enjoyed.  While at the hospital today I learned two very important lessons.

1. Never, ever buy cheap deodorant!  During a recent grocery store trip, I realized that the deodorant I was wearing was almost $4 a stick. I just really thought that was outrageous so I went for the cheap $1.75 stick. Not a good choice.........

2. Effort intolerance is a diagnosis. I reviewed a patient's chart at the hospital and a doctor had diagnosed a patient with "effort intolerance."  What a clever way to say someone is lazy?! I totally put that in my pocket to use at a later date.

I know I sound like a broken record, but I'll try to be better about blogging........maybe we'll become more interesting and I'll have something to actually blog about.
