Met my lil' sibs Alana Owen and Sara Catala Landry. Alana is from MS and Sara is from Puerto Rico. They are both very friendly and fantastic and fabulous individuals that I already am attached to. The big sibs of the class of 2011 spent the day getting to know the class of 2012 by eating lunch with them and playing silly ice breaker games before the coating ceremony. 2012's coat color is navy, not the best functionally but very nice aesthetically.
I came down with a case of laryngitis half way through the day.
Regina has the kennel cough.
I was called in for a conjunctival flap on the same dog we had done last Saturday, except this time we were fixing the right eye. This dog is a mean, bitey shit-zu that has dermatitis, alopecia, eye gunk, ear gunk, and multi-drug resistant kennel cough. We had to do the surgery in the isolation room and we had a heck of a time rolling the Big Bertha microscope back there! But it all went well, for which I am thankful.

Went home for a doctor's appointment. I won't have to go back for another 6 months, Yay!!

Calling around for kennels
Ran with Annie again. Learned that she will be going home in 20 days...which makes me very sad :( :(
Skipped prayer walk to run with Annie, was going to go to City Bagel to join the group for breakfast but Amy White (one of the founders of Homeward Bound) called me and said, "Hey, Joy, would you like to learn how to put in a catheter?" So I learned how to put in a catheter. It was in parvo dog (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canine_parvovirus) named Jasmine who was being kept in a vet's house in Columbus. Both her cephalic veins were blown so I had to do it in the left saphenous, which is difficult to do but I made it on the first try! The only other catheter I've ever put in was in the jugular of a horse. Afterwards, Amy and I met Kylee at City Bagel for brunch. Kylee knows everything about anything that's going on with the vet school. I learned a great deal about the politics and problems that are facing our class. It was quite intriguing as I had no idea any of this was lurking beneath the surface.
Went to Jer's apartment and helped clean his room. Then I fell asleep for about four hours.
