What did I learn today?



Bones of the hand, bitches :D

We also had our first ever psychological medicine lecture, which was like coming home and rediscovering all the shiny things you'd forgotten about while you were away, and I got a chocolate frog (the lecturer = very keen on lobbing chocolate frogs across the enormous lecture hall) for knowing why we consider specific phobias of blood & injury to be a separate group to all the other specific phobias.

He also made us watch fifteen minutes of the 1979 original When a Stranger Calls in an earnest, totally non-ironic effort to help us experience a moderate fear reaction. It was great.

So...a good ending to a pretty sucky week, all-in-all. I have absolutely nothing planned for the weekend, so if any Sydneysiders want to kidnap me or go out to lunch or see a movie or something, let me know!

Did they have an acronym for the carpal bones? (of course, you could just *learn* them ... then maybe you wouldn't still have to mutter your one of choice under your breath 13 years later, huh)

No acronym was provided, but I expect I will be making one up! Do you have a handy one?

[dubhartach.livejournal.com]

Handy, heh

Mine is bad bad bad

Scabby Lucy Pissed Twice Having Come Twenty Times

You see why I wish I didn't still have to mutter it ...

I always remember that the trapiziUM articulates with the thUMb too.

Still not as bad as the cranial nerves acronym!
