Starbucks and Cumbia’s

Well its been a while since I have updated my blog and it has been due to well nothing really going on!!
Today though I came across something that you would only see in San Antonio.  I went to a new Starbucks with some co-workers and it is shall we say not in your typical Starbucks location.  The next business over from it is a strip club( no Eye candy spotted yet)  and across the street is a Taco stand blasting Cumbia’s.  I think eventually Starbucks will be forced to rase the volume of their Jazz and we could see a full all out Jazz-Cumbia music war.  I think the Taco Stand will win though!

The O Sign

From the Urban DIctionary in medicine- evidence of morbidity in that the mouth is wide open in the shape of an “O” Q Sign- Extreme morbidity evidenced by the tongue handing out. in the shape of a “Q” ” that triage patient’ll be giving the o sign pretty soon.”

When is 3 a 4 and 5 a 6

Ok so doing a pedi case today and every time a pressure was called out the MD did not agree with the pressure and said it was one millimeter of mercury (mmHg) different that what we measured it as.  So if I said the RA presure was 8 the MD said it was 7 if I said the PA was 12 the MD said it was 13 and so on.  Ahhhh but I am smater that the average bear.  If I measured the pressure at say 8 then I would tell them it was 7 so they would say no it is 8.  Some people are just control Freeeeeeeeaks.

Warning weird writing ahead

Ok I am going to change the format a little and write a daily snippet from my workday.  It will be Healthcare related so some non healthcare people might think what I write to be callus or sometime just plain wrong.  For those people they need to read “The House of God”.  That book should be required reading for any person seeking a healthcare career or for that matter it should be required reading for anyone who dates a person in healthcare.
