When It Rains, It Pours..

So, at the end of last week I was a bit more than a little frustrated at my experience as an M3. Or, to be more accurate, my lack of experience. But, today has compensated and then some. Today I was in the OR for 11 hours plus. My feet hurt. My arms are sore from retracting. But, I must admit it was fun. I got to scrub in, have someone hold open the sterile gloves for me. I got to suture and staple the wounds that I will be required to check tomorrow morning at 5am. It was pretty freakin' cool.
