So, Monday was not such a manic one.  Actually, it was a turning point from last week.  Monday of last week in my Advanced Reproduction class, we artificially inseminated (AI) some heifers.  This should not have a been a problem for me especially since I successfully had several pregnancies from my AI class two years ago.  However, I was having major problems with it that day.  Then, on Friday we practiced passing embryo transfer (ET) 'guns' into the uterus of a cow so we could put embryos in cows.  I was unsuccessful at that as well.  And I even practiced with the AI class hoping that would help.  It did not help that much.  Well, yesterday changed all that.  We palpated ovaries and then I got to transfer a frozen embryo into a heifer.  It went pretty fast and I was successful!  So guess what... I'm ba-ack!
So the title of this post is because last week when I was splitting embryos, someone called me and my phone vibrated, that made me jump.  And then Randy called me when I was transferring the embryo, that made it a little difficult to keep the 'gun' still. 
Well, I've only got one week left and a ton left to do.  Keep in touch!
