So people have been sharing their wardrobes online this month

I thought I might try this too, but Nala obviously thought I was laying her out a nest...
 She moulted half her tail off on this dress, I swear. Good thing I'm not trying to sell it.
For reference, her tail is this big.
 My dresser drawer creaked very dangerously when she was doing this; she is only 4kg of cat, but my dresser is also only some sort of pretend wood stuff that's been repaired multiple times with superglue.
Have a bonus shot of tail-from-above. And my toes.
Planning her next attack! I don't think she sat on these items though.


Also, an outfit just to go to the post office if you're interested in what I wear.

House officers say the darndest things

(So do consultants, but I'm not quite sure that I should quote them here.)

These are not my finest moments at all, but somehow I'm still employed despite these pearls of wisdom.

"Ooh, he has bones!" - reviewing images of a tagged white blood cell scan
"It's because his brain is like polkadots on his MRI." - describing multiple previous infarctions and extensive small vessel disease in an attempt to explain why I wanted OT to do a cognitive assessment.
"This patient's breath sounds are gurgly" - to my registrar
"There's a fluffy bit over there" - pointing out ?right lower zone consolidation on an x-ray
"Sorry I couldn't find a torch, the med student didn't have one" - also to my registrar
"They look squishable and there's no arrows, he must be fine" - describing images showing venous compression on leg USS to rule out a DVT.
"Oh crap, I'm calling the registrar." - said far too often on evenings. I love the registrars.

This is why I constantly have cat hair on my clothes.

There's an outfit below the jump as well, but really, who wants to look at that when you can see Nala being cute?
Spot the kitty!
 She sometimes even brings me in presents too, and not in a good way. This was just chilling out when I got home one day...
