Good: Manage to wake up and get going early enough (read: 5am) to walk Fozzie before pre-surgery PEs.

Bad: Forget my white coat. >.<

Good: Our dog (an adorable beagle, and yes, I have my camera) is doing just dandy this morning.

Bad: He is WIGGLY LIKE WORMS, and we blew both lateral saphenous veins getting blood for a CBC/chem, TP, PCV, and azostick.

Good: He will be DRUGGED TO EYEBALLS when I try to get a catheter into his cephalic vein this afternoon.

La.

Also: Frank is trying to run over Trapper again. >.> This Hawkeye will content herself with putting foot down and not aiding and abetting said running over, since Trapper's doing pretty good standing up to it. *eyeroll* Also, plz plz plz don't give me head anesthetist lady as my faculty person!! I will be not with the happy. *runs off to fetch lab coat*

Fozzie is a beagle. Therefore, it's a given he's going to be wiggly and a royal pain in the rear unless he's drugged to the eyeballs. You might want to drug him to the top of his skull, just to be on the safe side. ;) I've been in that position before. I know your pain and frustration.

Sorry, should have made more clear:

Fozzie, the colony dog I walk, is not a beagle. He is, however, wiggly. Just a lot bigger. >.<

Buster, the beagle, is a dog from the local shelter that we did a neuter on today. And he is WIGGLY LIKE WORMS. But damn if that catheter didn't go in perfect. :D

Ah, okay. Whatever the name of the beagle, it's a given the dog's going to wiggle and be a pain in the butt to do anything with/to. ;)

Yes, it's amazing how much easier catheters and other such things are inserted when the patient is drugged to the eyeballs and, therefore, very still and unable to move.
