Is it weird to think bacteria are cute? Especially when they zip around in a wet mount! I enjoy thinking that I work with tiny animals all day. Trichomonas, with their membranes undulating seductively in a wet prep of a cervical swab are also always a treat.
Ooops, I meant they were a treat to SEE, they’re not so much a treat for the swabee… I tend to forget about the patient! There’s a reason I’m not in patient care.
