I wish I could say I do exciting new things with my life after clinical days, but the truth is I just sit here drinking Mike’s hard lemonade and watching New in Town over and over again.

This shit is good.

She will write, executive produce and star in the comedy about a Bridget Jones-type doctor trying to navigate her personal and professional lives.
Fox is getting into the Mindy Kaling business.
The network has officially picked up to pilot an untitled comedy from The Office’s Kaling that would star the writer-actress as a young Bridget Jones-type doctor trying to navigate both her personal and professional lives. The project, which hails from Universal TV, would be written and executive produced by Kaling, with Parks and Recreation and The Office’s Howard Klein on board as a nonwriting executive producer.
Holy shit.

I had my first neurotrauma patient today. 18-year-old visiting from up north to check out colleges. Unfortunate freak skateboarding accident. He had a craniectomy, and the piece of skull that was taken out to decompress his brain was temporarily placed in his abdomen to keep up its blood supply. I still remember hearing about this in class and freaking out over how crazy awesome it is, and today I actually got to feel the piece of skull inside the abdomen!
Anyway, I learned a lot today, including how to deal with frustrations and bitchy neuro doctors (srsly though). I also spent a large part of the day secretly watching our poor boy’s mother, because really really how agonizing is it to be 300 miles away from your son and find out that he’s fallen on his head and he’s in an emergency room about to go to surgery. And you thought he was just leaving for a weekend to look at university design and architecture programs. Some days your heart hurts more than your feet.
