Now i’m done with my morning tasks, which means we’re another day down, basically. We don’t put the cart before the horse, though, and we know that, actually, we have plenty of time left in this day for who knows what other shit. We’re gonna keep moving forward and keep up the faith and shit like that. But the truth is that at the end of this day, we will officially be

halfway through.

So that’s a milestone, for sure. We will simply be halfway through this rotation. Four days of weekend left in this thing. Just kidding, it’s six days left. Six weekend days between me and the end. We’ll see what those weekend days bring. It will all eventually add up to the thirty days which hath september. April june and november.

Maybe I should’ve put another rotation in november because it’s one of the few months with thirty days. But it’s fine. The rotation next month will be okay, i’m sure. There are possibly two clinical electives i can take virtually. I do wonder about it, though. How many more do i really have left? One thing is that residency prep is an elective i’m able to take. I think—shit, i might as well do it. It’s a senior year classic thing. I know it’s not required of me, but it covers one of my clinical electives, so what the hell, sure, and it’ll be decent bonding with the class. It used to be called 'return to class,' and you know what, shit, that sounds fine by me. Like, shit, let’s do it. It seems like people like it, and E---- was singing its praises, or at least speaking its praises, so we can plan on doing it. And i’ll be happy to answer any questions anyone has about my career path. '---, why are you doing residency prep?'

'because i love you guys!'

is what i will say.

But in that case, i think we’re basically on track to finish this goddamn degree. I know the short term is going to work itself out. It’s just a lot of standing around, which i’m doing right now. Standing around at my standing desk which is the bunkbed. So i’m here, and happily. I’m happily just here! Let’s go. It’s awesome.

And then next month, the peds psych thing will be awesome, seemingly. And then, shit, maybe i’ll do palliative care, and from how i do on that, i can decide whether i want to do another one. For example, i could do the peds one, and then i can see if i like it enough to do the adult one, maybe.

Or i could cop out and decide to do the month online. That could be interesting but

totally phoning it in.

If i want to phone it in i can phone it in. Either way i’ll be done. I’ll be done. Man, that’s kind of fucking insane. I’m going to have an MD at the end of all of this.
