There is a HUGE time gap between this update and the previous one, and it is displeasing.
Basically, the treatments week involved being up at 6.30 every day to get a bus to the vet school for 7.40 - 7.40 because things had to be well underway at 8 for an "8am" treatment session, and on the bus because I was supposed to be resting the knee that didn't like cycling.
Unfortunately, while the 4pm session didn't take much extra organisation - stay after lecture, leave after treatment - the 8pm required going back out to the vet school from the other side of town, and at a time of night that meant that the bus from the vet school to home wasn't running when I was free to go home again, meaning that I had to cycle at least an hour a day while "resting" my knee.
The hours meant being very, very tired all week, and due to this and the overworked bad knee plus the grazed-and-bruised other knee (other bike came out of nowhere, I braked too abruptly and fell off), it was difficult to work up the enthusiasm to write a blog post. Even the one about how I had to hobble-run to catch the bus and probably looked like a retarded guillemot in doing so.
Treatments week is now well over, but given that the clinic rotations we've done this week also involved me having to leave the house at 7.30am, I hadn't really picked up on the lost sleep until now. Apologies for the delay.
There is edu-tainment to be had in the rotations though, as demonstrated by a friend who had to deal with this exchange:
Client: My rabbit gets diarrhoea when he eats cabbage.
Student: Do you feed him cabbage?
Client: Oh yes.
Student: Stop feeding him cabbage.
Just... heh.
