Residency is done–DONE!!!–in a couple of weeks, unless of course I do something stupid, like get caught having sex behind a post or order something really weird like fleet enema every hour, with acid. In the first few months and… Read More ›

No Respite From Whinifications and AHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHU’s
Been catching up on my comic book reading and realized I have 165 comic book backlogs, so this is a comic book-related entry. Last chance to stop reading if you’re not into comic books, but by all means read on… Read More ›
Cat Lantern of Rage
While scheduling for ambulance conduction in APL (Ambulance Parking Lot) Smoketh and I saw one of the sleeping cats wake up, then do the most wonderful backstretch/ikyad/contortion. He then smelled the shoes in the vicinity then slept again. I tried… Read More ›
Virg
Before residency started three years ago we were told by a fellow that we would see ten-years worth of cases in just three years, but we would also age ten years faster. Back in med school I would still be… Read More ›

Butangera Zombies
Was in a state of BRP yesterday–yes, BRP is so 2004, and when I told some of my clerks a few months ago, “Nag-BBRP ka na ba?” I was admonished that BRP has officially been replaced with some B-something in… Read More ›

Ahahahahahahaha–Ahuhuhuhuhuhu–More Lithium!
Was facetiming, reading digital Legion of Superheroes, occasionally peeking at digital Harrison’s, downloading more Twilight Zone, watching Superman Returns, and organizing my folder “Failed Literary Aspirations” all at the same time while sitting by myself in The Shrine MF1 when… Read More ›
Harry Potpot
Because I ran to the movie listing for the week and you know what’s showing? Harry Potter. In ALL cinemas. I think except for one cinema in Robinson’s, which is showing some obscure unremarkable movie I can’t remember. I’ve learned… Read More ›

And we henceforth generate more butangera memories. Massive thanks to HTGOF, who is presently riding a gondola, critiquing nude male statues, and slurping spaghetti all at the same time somewhere in Europe for bringing to the present consciousness the wonderful… Read More ›
Grand Pronouncements
You know what I’m talking about: speakers saying stuff in front like “If only one of you would go home and take the message of my talk to heart and start strict hand washing, then I would have done my… Read More ›
Bipolar Haikufication
So no intern or clerk is still able to present the complete history and one-month course of a patient in haiku format. The very few who attempt/make patol are able to dish out elegant, cute haikus, but the content is… Read More ›
The Tale of Fecaloid and Fecalitha
Callistus Netromedev in his nostalgia has brought back a very interesting memory I’ve been trying to suppress all these years: open forums! Yes, open forums, because high school kids are the most melodramatic bunch and would cry at the slightest… Read More ›
Give Me Palahoho
For some reason the crap I blog about usually pop in my head while lurring alone in our balcony watching at our drunken neighbor do really weird stuff while proudly wearing his bright orange Sta. Rosa City Jail t-shirt, or… Read More ›
File Under D for Distracted
After all the integers and the x’s and y’s and the square roots and all those symbols I can’t remember now have been written on the board our Math teacher would sit down and let us do the seatwork. Then… Read More ›

And since we’re on the topic and we want this topic to be over so we could go on with our lives as respectable doctors and lawyers and yuppies and such and we would only get one mega-dose of whinings… Read More ›
Whinifications, Whinatologies, and Whinaprophisms
Was comfortably ensconced in my room yesterday with the aircondition in full blast and my laptop on my belly and I was reading digital comic books after comic books while the TV was on and just across me were my… Read More ›
Slather My Face With Melted Reese’s and Lick It
On my 12th birthday a rich neighbor gave me a huge pack of Reese’s Peanut Butter cups, those small cups individually wrapped in gold shiny foil, and to borrow some trite coming-of-age phrase,… Read More ›
Die, November, Suffer and Die.
November seems to be a month of personal pain, and when we say pain we mean the combined pain of real life, emotional pain and physical, retained stone colic pain, and they come in combination so there’s no point trading… Read More ›
