keyboard surprise and stigmata!
so I was just cleaning my keyboard...which was like super nasty dirty....smudgy dirt on each key....and I don't have any windex so Instead I sprayed a bunch of Lysol country Scent disinfectant spray on a paper towel (it is 79% ethanol, so it helps clean), and that and some good old fashioned water and ten minutes of key to key scrubbing did the job. However, somewhere betweel the 'L' key and the :; key, I fished out a hair..a short kinky hair...and all I am thinking is....who has been using this computer and what have they been doing in front of it......eeeeewwwwww. I am gross. (that is my way of saying I am grossed out...that is in no way a self-implication). Nothing worse than fishing out a pube from your key board. This little room where my comp is has had many people through it over the last many weeks....but you know, sometimes you find errant pubes in the most random of places, so I guess I shouldn't freak out.....eeeewwwww. I'm uncomfortable. In other news, my friend Linsey picked me up and we both went to Mercy this morning. After a chill couple hours of orientation which assured us that we are at the chillest possible site for surgery, they let us out at like 10:30. It was so-weet. We won't have a call schedule till friday, and they think we are all brand spanking new third years and keep giving us the, don't be scared talk, and unless I am asked specifically, I am going to be okay with their lowered expectations of me as a student!! There are a couple of us who are in this boat, and we think it is of no benefit to pipe up when they assume we are new at this, and correct them to say, welll....technically, I am not a 'fresh' third year.....I just let it slide. So there are a lot of nuns crawling around the hospital....I am sorry, I just conjured up arachnid images by the use of the verb crawl, and I should not have done that. Let me try again....there are a lot of nuns slithering around the hospital......psych! just kidding.....anyway, nuns be there. Lotsa 'em. And then when you go to the OR there are these lil crosses with a small splayed jesus across them, and the way the affix them to the wall is the intentional placement of the nails directly through the palms of ole JC.....the whole thing made me uncomfortable and I kept looking at my palms for stigmata. However, there is a lot of pretty religious art, and pictures of kickass nuns and stuff with little things inscriptions about the good deeds these Catholic nuns did. In fact, pardon me while I go to their webpage...I started to read about it yesterday and then I didn't finish. Oh, remind me to tell you about the gourd festival.
