Bit It

Oh leftover Melt sandwich, you were positively delicious. There is a sandwich size shape in my abdomen because of you, and I love you for it. However, you must be digested more before I can walk around the hospital (or block, if it's warm enough out there).

I went over to the park across the street from Severance Hall - It has lots of trees, a pond and sunny areas too, so I've taken to go there when I have a chance. Today I made the mistake of taking a step in what I thought was a puddle. It turned out to be a big mudslide and oh, I slid. I somehow managed to not land in the pond, but I wound up with mud caked on my right leg, a spot of mud on my shirt, and spattered all over my lab coat. In front of a group of bratty middle schoolers who in no way appreciated my ability to laugh at myself.

And come to think of it, why weren't they in school? It was too late to be a lunch break and too early for them to be out for the day. Lucky for me, I keep a pair of scrubs in my locker in case of emergency, so I changed into those as soon as I got back. Also our pharmacist keeps a spare lab coat around in case we have med students or apparently if one of us falls in mud. I look like that kid looks at the end of Big when he changes from Tom Hanks to himself, but is still wearing Tom Hanks-sized clothes. Now if only I could get the mud to come out of my iPod cover.
