Last day as an intern!!!!!

Well, this wonderful thing is fixing to happen here in another couple of days. I am going to move up the ranks and become a full resident. There is a fresh class of interns waiting to fill our shoes (and judging by my own slef, that should not be difficult).  So, more responsibilities, more expected work out of you, but you also get a little more leeway and lattitude.  I don't know how this came up so quickly, but it is here. I am one third of the way through my training, and I still feel like I don't know anything. I actually am feeling more pressured since I now also have to set the example for these young pups coming in.

I also am looking forward with great anticipation to Domestic-6 coming up here. This has  been a very hard year for me for that reason alone. All of the preceeding year would have been easier to deal with had she been by my sid3e for it. The fear, the death, the hazing. All of it would have been easier to bear had we been together. I missher terribly. I miss her skinny arms wrapped around my neck, I miss the way she will hug me and sniff at my temple. I miss us both deciding to be lazy for dinner, and going out to get some greek food. I miss how we would then eat it on the couch in front of the TV, and snuggle under the blankets. I miss her trying to send me into shock by putting her cold feet onto my warm stomach or back. I miss how she would get upset at me for not screaming and howling in pain when she woud do so, despite the fact that her feet are colder than the ambient temperature. We do not belong apart. We only have a set amount of time together on this mudball, and the time we have spent apart we shall never get back. I think that of all the heartbreak, exhaustion, blood, death, embarrasment and disappointment I have gone through this year, it is this time we could not be together that has been the harshest to bear.

[Sigh.]

In other news, I am going to be off the air for a bit here. I am moving to newer and better digs in preparation for D-6's return, and the internet access will not be available there for a little bit. Since, I am not going to be bloggin from work, and the gun content of most of the sites I regularly visit is banned from hospital computers, I will probably be out of the loop for a week or two.
