Itchy fingers

They are workaholics. Crazy people. How many times I hear this said about people I hear I have lost count. They dont have fun in life. They forget to enjoy. You get the gist.. My admiration of surgeons is no secret. Specifically though I seem to like surgeons who fall into this no fun category. Who just keeping operating. Seeing these guys in the theatre you see another persona. Back straight chin held high deep in thought but yet intrigued and little excited about performing the procedure. I know this surgeon who had just finished his case and was walking out. He sees another patient in a stretcher and casually comments to me 'my fingers are itching. I wish I could do this procedure also'. The sheer joy they encounter here is unbelievable. It's not a life without fun. It's a life which has so much for them that they dont have time for anything else
