Here's the problem with me getting up during the day. When I get up at 6 I feel justified in taking a short nap at 2. With lots of blankets. Then I wake up at 830.

Every once in a great while at work we have a night where I get to do this. Tonight I couldn't handle doing so much of this and asked to go home early.

Yes I am stirring my tea with a butcher knife. ER ingenuity at it's finest. Even on overtime days :)

Today I prevented a resident AND attending from letting a sick 2 year old die. I was also paged overhead to help check in a medic patient in resp distress while the nurse assigned to that room was busy with another patient. When they paged me, several people came running thinking that the patient must be ready to code if they needed my help. It made me happy :) But, since I can't take pictures of those things, this is my belly button. It has been SO itchy all day! Belly buttons creep me out.

Today I made ravioli for dinner. Then I decided I didn't want it, so I made snickerdoodles instead. They're delicious! And even after all these years I can't make snickerdoodles without thinking of Jenny, Kristy, and Becky :)

Bad picture in bad light, but fantastic and much needed night out bowling and cocktailing with work friends.

Today's spring cleaning: the dinning room. Gone are the Christmas table runners, boxes, and cards. Gone are the books picked up while shopping for other people. Gone is the sewing machine from drapes and carseat covers past. And gone is the fine layer of dust where all these things weren't. :-)

Today's spring cleaning: the reason (one of them) that I hate grocery shopping. The freezer and fridge. I know that I'm just going to end up throwing at least some small portion of 90% of what I buy six or twelve or eighteen months down the road when its molding, expired, and/or unrecognizable. Today I melted four containers of freezer burn (ice cream) down the sink, as well as a frozen package of mushroom risotto. Because I don't like ice cream, and as good as Trader Joe's is, the creamy rice will never match the fancy cliff-side restaurant in Greece (yep it had been there since July). Let's not even talk about the abundance of expired bottles containers and shriveled fruit... among other things from my fridge. Ah, single living!

Today when I got things from work I decided to try my latest impulse register pickup from Sephora. An Origins activated charcoal mud mask. There's something quite un-intuitive to an er nurse about using activated charcoal for anything... hope it goes well!

Today was hair day. The best kind of day there is! Every girl needs to get pampered every once in a while!

I sat under this skylight for a good five minutes before I figured out that it was the rain making that sound, not some housekeepers cart banging around a closet... time for a day off? I think so :)

Today I saved a life. It's not every day you can say that, even in my profession. This was one of the nicest human beings on the planet, who has done so much for others in his lifetime. It was an honor to care for him. It seems like the nicest people who come in happy and joking always end up dying. It's nice to have one end the other way -still happy and joking when I left :)
