I blog at my own website so if you wanna see my it go here.
And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
Who I'd like to meet: Jim Morrison, Thomas Jefferson, Steve Zissou
Thanks for the tips, Paul. It's interesting that you should remind me to breath...I found that when I was taking the kaplan practice tests I was NOT breathing. They say O2 is needed for brain fxn. Anyhoo, I passed...it's official...people better run.
Missed you at Jayme's! I keep hearing about this BBQ next weekend - would it be okay if I send Steve? I gotta work. Which is what I assume you had to do this weekend. Anyhow - it was gorgeous! It rained, but everyone made the most of it. Jayme was gorgeous. Mike looked good. Everything was good! Maybe you and me and Jeff will see a movie this week?
Congrats to you as well, Paul, RN. I just finished...yippee! I was doing my senior practicum on 5C psych but am not there anymore. I'd like to go back (not as a patient of course) but am going to stay down here for a year of boring med-surg and do some nurse delegation too. After that, I'd like to be back up on 5C as on-call. All is well here...congrats on everything and keep in touch!
Thats cool that things are going well! Exciting to have your own patient, even if it is with a preceptor! You will have to let me know as soon as you find out your schedule if you guys can come. I would really like to see all three of you! My kitty is doing ok. She meows a lot and this morning she made me fall down my entire flight of stairs at my house. I am pretty banged up!Talk to you again soon. ~Jayme
Hey! Congrats! You start at Harborzoo soon. Steve and Minnie and I are going camping this weekend, then I work Sunday, then we should have some lunch. After that, Steve and I (but not Minnie) are going to BONNAROO!!!!!! I'm so excited. Lemme know when's good.
Yay! You are an RN! You start working soon! How exciting!
I'm good - just working. Hanging out with Steve, seeing friends, going to see music, walking the dog, living a normal life. It's great. We're starting to talk a kids/house/more school timeline. (Kids come 2009! YAY!) The rest I could wait for. Work is good. Some parts of every job kinda suck, but I love it overall.
Keep me posted once you start at Harborzoo - you're working with Christine and Stacey, right?
