<br />
Four and a half hours of sleep were not enough to prepare me to see her face. Her hand, frozen in a position ripe for holding. Her hand moving toward my face as my labmate raised her arm to make way for his scalpel. I sliced off her breast and put it in a plastic bag to save for later. It felt wrong to toss the other in the waste bin, to separate the two. Later, in the shower, I would look down at my own breasts and imagine them being cut away, now knowing what they looked like inside.<br />
<br />
Four and a half hours were not enough.<br />
<br />
Spent the evening with warm, loving people. But when I close my eyes I see fascia. The split tree trunk on the side of the road is the long and lateral heads of the triceps brachii. And every time someone passes me a dish at the dinner table tonight, I see her hand.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185552196746073140.post-128698923004946542015-09-22T07:27:00.000-07:002015-09-22T07:27:06.636-07:00September 22, 2015<b>One thing I learned today:</b> It's game on.

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>One thing I learned today:</b> "Go out by yourself and do something ridiculous. The only way to break out of the box of the mundane and monotony. Practice taking yourself out and try striking up a convo with ten different strangers. 9 people might brush you off and thats totally fine, and the tenth person might end up becoming your best friend. Who knows. But go out there. Put on a picachu hat and sit in the middle of a bar if you have to, as long as by the end of the day you can go home feeling really good, knowing you did something absolutely ridiculous." </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">- Bill Clinton, 1994</span></div>
