Dusting off the keyboard...

Well, not really. I use my computer a lot. But I kinda sorta forgot to blog cuz i was kinda distrcted by work n stuff. Not to disappoint, but i'm actually not on night shift yet. I won't be there for another couple months, and even might be able to do days if I decide. Now that I have the option, i'm really not sure WHAT i want! silly me!

Work is good, and I really do look forward to going there most of the time. It is truly a challenge though-- some days have been incredibly slow, other days are furiously paced. I like those cuz the 12 hrs whip by, but I can't seem to leave work feeling like I did as good a job as I would like. I'm not killin' patients by any means, but I want to do better. And I will, with time. Its very much a time of adjustment and patience. I really want to skip all this time where I don't know anything (I know you guys think I'm brilliant, but trust me on this one, i'm not using false humility) and go straight to the well-prepared, confident nurse that I see in my coworkers. But please, don't tell me "I'll get there eventually, don't worry." Honestly, I hear that a ton and all ready know it, so there is no need to repeat it. I'm not needing advice, just venting to my friends. = )

So, thats me. I love saying I'm an RN and i get to do that frequently. I went to Biola today for the first time since it started up again. It felt a little strange. But I love looking at the new styles and watching people interact like we used to. I ran into Melissa Schubert, who tried to get me to hook her up with single Docs....I think I talked her out of it.

Matt is good-- works been super busy, and hot of course, but he is doing okay with it. Pete might even get him some paid vacation time! That would be cool...we won't have to worry about taking off anymore.

Thanks everyone for updating (well, except diz, but i allready got a verbal report...oops, there's that nursing lingo!). Michelle, i'd love to see you in October....let me know when...i have half the month scheduled so far, but i'm off 4 days aweek, so i'm sure i'll squeeze ya in! As for SanDiego, I'm pretty sure I could swing it....Matt and I would love to see the zoo, since we saw SeaWorld at graduation, but i'm up for just hanging out too! No for Tucson though, cuz i'm booked to be in Yuma at that time....Michelle, are you on the way?? Oh, fyi, i think i'm going to a housewarming party i'm throwing for Danielle next weekend....everyone's welcome. = ) nobody else is coming, actually, but i thought i'd throw it out there....sorry, i want to visit everyone, but only have a few days off.

okay, i can't eat my corn on the cob and type, so i gotta go. I miss you all immensly and I will be doing my best to open up my schdule in novemeber for you!!
