    [color=#a9a9a9]you can discuss almost any topic or question that comes up whever you happen to be.

    ex. two md neighbors, one nurse wife and i discussed a new surgical procedure during a play intermission without ever leaving our seats.

    you believe tylenol, advil, or excedrin provides a large part of your daily calorie intake requirements.
    you believe every waiting room should have a valium salt lick.
    you believe the problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.
    you believe the pain will go away when it stops hurting.
    you don't get excited about blood loss unless it's your own.
    anything that can go wrong, will go wrong and if nothing has gone wrong, you obviously don't understand the situation.
    you've ever had a patient with a nose ring, a brow ring and twelve earrings say, "i'm afraid of shots."

    Your 2 1/2 year old, after climbing under the table at the restaraunt to get a dropped toy, says, "I need hand 'tizer. I have germs now."

    Your 4 year old gets a scratch on his hand. When you say, "Guess we'll have to cut it off so it doesn't hurt anymore," his response is, "You mean AMPUTATE?? No Way!"

    (from my grandson - his mom and grammy are nurses!)

    You are in your martial arts class, and tell the kid in front of you "go ahead and attack, I wrestle 200 lb drunks every night"

    You are at story time with your kid listening to a funny book about a girl with volume control issues and all you can think about is why hasn't anyone checked her ears!?
