Pathology

Last night I met a person studying to be a pathologist. She said she had no problem with cutting up bodies, it was really interesting. But the ones they used to practice on were all long-dead. They pulled them from the fridge, did a bit of work on them, then shoved them back again. I said, But when you're a pathologist, you'll be working on the newly dead. She said, Oh dear, you're right, I hadn't thought about that - that's not so easy.

An anorexic physiotherapist with a Chinese eye-chart was whom I saw this morning.

Tomorrow I shall mostly be eating beans.
