my oldies ❤️ are both doing good, butters is one-week post-dental and cleared to eat hard food again, which she is very excited about (girl loves her some kibbles). Boone had his bi-annual PT visit today to make sure that he’s not got any red flags we need to address, and thankfully the dr didn’t find anything that isn’t likely attributed to “large breed dog getting old” factors, so that’s always good for my peace of mind. While we were there I also let a group of student technicians borrow him for a bit because they were reviewing venipuncture and Boone has just about The most visible veins you will ever see in a dog, so he was a very good anatomy model for the teacher.

The anatomy laboratory is neat there s a deer head in the sink
adding mature filter because people probably are not as fascinated as me by a decapitated deer in a sink. We've moved on to myology and my gallery is full of photos of preserved carcass muscles

🎅 Have a Howelly-Jolly Christmas 🎄
A festive finding in the blood of an asplenic patient 💉
i❤️histo
A Howell–Jolly body is a cytopathological finding whereby small remnants of nuclear DNA are present in normally anuclear circulating erythrocytes.
During development in the bone marrow, late orthochromatophilic erythroblast normally expel their nuclei. However, in some cases, a small portion of DNA remains (the purple dots in the erythrocytes wearing the Santa hats).
Under normal circumstances if these irregular erythrocytes make it into the blood, they are removed from circulation by the spleen.
As a result, the presence of erythrocytes with Howell-Jolly bodies in peripheral blood smears like this usually signifies a damaged or absent spleen - because a healthy spleen would normally filter this type of red blood cell.

10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 29, & 30
10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw
i'm terribly neglectful of my clothing drawing skills. it's something ive been meaning to practice but i just don't get around to it. i love the IDEA of drawing silly long medieval-style hoods on creatures. i rarely do them justice though. i really just want to get good at drawing silly historically accurate medieval clothes to be honest with you.
11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what
ok i just answered this but ill expose myself and go into detail RE: tunes. lately it's been a lot of fish in a birdcage and crane waves, for whatever reason. i also have been kinda getting into oingo boingo and bjork... dabbling in them really, both are hit or miss for me. but as always when i need to get pumped up slayyyter or kim petras (turn off the light... album of all time tbh)(and stupid boy is the SONG OF ALL TIME!!! IMO). and cosmo sheldrake (especially his instrumental stuff) if i need a more chill background noise. (my music taste is. all over the place.)
12. Easiest part of body to draw
ooh possibly insane to say but i think my fav/most comfortable thing to draw lately has been faces! i'm not sure about EASIEST, i feel like that always depends on pose and stylization. if we want to get technical i think probably the torso is the easiest thing to draw. just kind of stylize it into a tube. that's definitely not what this question was asking though. ANWAY!
already answered 13 and 14~
15. *Where* do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)
most of my sketchbooking is done at my kitchen table or sometimes in class. my digital art setup is a big gaming laptop + a screened tablet so she stays at my desk, not very portable at all. the sculpture painting situation is EVEN LESS portable so that's pretty much exclusive to ~My Basement~
16. Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing
ohh inchresting question. i feel like the things i'm good at i've gotten good at because they're enjoyable, and i don't do the unenjoyable things enough to know if i'm good at them or not? honestly though, i don't like underglazing very much. i like the results i can get with it, but it's pretty tedious. glazing on the other hand i dislike and am also bad at maybe picking color schemes as well. people say i'm good at colors and it's true but the amount of trial and error that goes into it is such a pain!
17. Do you eat/drink when drawing? if so, what
usually i'm too absorbed with what i'm doing to. and when i'm working on sculpture it's hard to eat or drink anything without getting clay dust/paper mache glue/paint on and in my food! although when i really need a push to work on something i'll make myself a cup of earl gray to keep me company. 50% chance if it gets drank or if it gets cold tho.
29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically
this is hard because i think everything i like sneaks into my art one way or another! maybe the uncanny/spookier art i like. it's not strictly MEDIA, but i have some niche macabre interests like historical burial customs and ancient mummies (natural and man-made), anatomy and physiology, taxidermy, pathology, etc. that i don't think pop up that much in my work.
and i answered 30 already!
