	Back to School...
	I went to my orientation yesterday at 1400, O Best Beloved, and I got my schedule. Thursday-Friday-Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday will be the longest days of the entire rotation, as I am in my subspecialty rotation in Emergency Radiology from 8-11 in the mornings. We all looked at the schedule, confused, and asked questions of each other in soft, disbelieving voices. And then our suspicions were confirmed: Except for subspecialty, we have lectures from 11-12:15 and 12:30-2:30 every weekday. That is the only thing we're required to attend. I am so studying for my Boards this month. But first, I think I'll play around with character stories and perhaps tell the tale of the vacation Angel and I went on. This may be a dry month, or you may have less drama than before. We'll see. I'm sure my life will still be interesting. now feeling:: happy

Radiology is X-rays and stuff, right?

Which parts are done by doctors and which just by people trained to run the machines?

*confused*

X-ray techs do the picture taking, but the image is then sent to a radiologist (MD) who actually interprets it.

I'm almost two years out from medical school, here in Indiana where I was born and grew up. I used to write poetry - still do, sometimes - but now I've taken to spilling my heart out in prose. I'm balancing family, expecting a new baby, and working as a second-year family medicine resident. I'd like to take you along for the ride.

My updates are erratic, dependent on my mood, my current work schedule, and my ability to motivate myself. You are warned.

Expect a narrative of my days on shift. Anticipate good experiences and bad. Almost everything I write, personal or not, is a public entry, so be prepared for things that you don't quite understand.

There is a list of those who really do want to know more about me than the general public desires to see. Flip down to "spin a web" and click the link there to get in on that list.
