AND HOW THAT MONTH FLEW BY: One month ago I was in that Traverse City emergency room, just scared absolutely shitless, peeing in cups, getting a garden hose plugged into my arm, getting radiated and jammed inside a catscan apparatus. Laid out. Then, eviscerated with a particularly nasty little fuckertube extracted. Medical waste. Ah, the memories.

Well, I’m glad as hell that shit’s behind me, and one month later, I’m proud to report that things feel great, and those war wounds are healed up just fine. Phew. Thank you, Dr. Slikkers.

Only thing left to do is pay the bill. Fun shit. Trying to keep my spirits up with the loot side of things.

And, to get my ass into gear. This sedentary shit isn’t gonna cut it. Gotta make some changes. I’m thinking something along the lines of that strongman shit, like, “me pulling a semi truck with a chain over my shoulder.” You know, shit like that to get my heart pumping some blood.

Anyhoo, Jonathan Hughes was nice enough to send me a couple more nurse icons. Here’s what he had to say,

Here are a couple more nurse icons you might find interesting. The one on the left is English (it’s not as sexy as I remembered it, but it’s still pretty cool). The one on the right is German. My favorite is the one on the left, but I like how the German one is sort of awkwardly walking towards you.

A missive, from the inner confines of the “medical icon design” world, readers. I mean, where the fuck else would you get access to the inner sanctum of that kind of sub sub sub design genre? Only on the DDC, people. Proof. Thank you, Mr. Hughes, and keep up the good work!
