The thigh bone's connected to the knee bone...

No, actually, I am all done learning about bones. This week, I will be working on the muscles of the back of the body. I know all the ones on the front. And no, Tim, I don't need any help finding muscles on a live model. I don't think that's a muscle anyway.

My favorite muscle so far is the orbicularis oculi. Say it a few times, and you'll see what I mean. This is the muscle that goes all the way around your lips and allows you both to kiss and also purse your lips when you suck a lemon (or just want to look prissy).

Still waiting for news about getting into the Nursing Program in the fall. I do, however, get to sign up for the 8-week session of Anatomy II. I am not looking forward to this at all. Anatomy I was a lot of info to process in 16 weeks, and now I'll have half as much time? Oy. Must get caught up on laundry, meals, and toilet cleaning now, as these will not be done for the 8 weeks starting May 1. "What, you want to eat AGAIN?! Can't you see that Mommy's trying to STUDY?! Here, just go play with this role of tape, ok?"

And in the background Cat Stevens is crooning, "The cat's in the cradle with the silver spoon, little boy blue and the man on the moon...when you comin' home mom I don't know when, but we'll get together then, son, you know we'll have a good time then."
