Worldly Wisdom
It's a bright and sunny Sunday afternoon.
People are walking in pairs outside, sitting on the stone steps and enjoying the breeze. Children are licking icecreams and dribbling it down their tee-shirts. Dogs are frolicking on the ends of leashes.
And I'm stuck indoors. Working. I've just seen 10 patients in 2 hours, which means that it is busy but not crazy.
On the bright side, I have learned much about common sense and worldly wisdom during my first two shifts in the Emegency Department...
1. Never try to adjust the blades of a lawn mower whilst it is still running. You will have to get your finger glued back together by a trembling ED doctor.
2. Never poke a German Shepherd in the eye with a pointy stick. You will get your eyebrow glued together by a trembling ED doctor.
3. Never try and break a china teacup with your bare feet. You will get pieces of precious heirloom removed from your heel by a trembling ED doctor holding a sharp pair of tweezers.
4. Never try and jump over a small brick wall whilst wearing stiletto heels. You will get your ankle wrapped up by a trembling ED doctor.
5. Never use a rubber band to maintain an erection. The trembling ED doctor will laugh at you. And you will be very, very, very embarrassed.

Hahaahaa! Now that is really funny.
Oh dear ... I'm trying not to laugh at No. 5 but yet ...
= )
on second thoughts, I think I can laugh safely at that. Cos it is so damn daft.
Mr Wang, wahj: I thought so too!
Gosh, I'm still recovering from laughing too hard! :)
*sigh* Really wonder what goes through the minds of some folks.
julia: or rather, what's not going through their minds...
