why is it that the line for the ladies room always wraps around the building while there is never a line in for the men's room?

I suck.
This is going to be a short blog. I am tired. I have a headache. and I am just plain rundown. I really want to email Stef, so maybe I will save some energy for that. If I don't fall asleep first, as I lay here typing this in bed.
the other morning (either last thurs or Fri, or yesterday--idk. all my days run together), I got a call at 0507 while I was up getting ready for clinical. I silenced it. It was a weird 808 area code. I assumed someone wanting money and was irritated that they would call that early. Vin said why would it be a telemarketer or anyone at this hour, when we are the earliest time zone? He has a point. It was my brother, I found out today. I FINALLY listened to my voicemails (I have a super bad habit of going weeks and weeks without listening to them.) I feel like crying now. I can't believe I silenced a call from my BROTHER in AFGHANISTAN. He is risking his life to save other people's lives that are fighting for our country, and I can't even answer a damn phone call cuz I don't want to risk having it be a bill collector. Honestly, the thought that it could be him, NEVER crossed my mind. Today i told my dad I should start answering them. He said he usually calls at odd hours. It still didn't dawn on me. Then Chris wrote on facebook that he had tried to call me, and that NO ONE he called answered. He didn't get to talk to anyone from the states, not his family, not his wife, no one. AND I WAS UP. God, I hate myself right now.
Bed. To upset to facebook. sigh.

No title today. Not that creative yet.
So. the school bans Facebook and Myspace (not that I use myspace, anyways), but not blogger. So, I guess I may be blogging more than I thought. Just for the reason that I have nothing better to do, as I wait for my instructor at 0800, and I am to lazy to go down and get my laptop outta my locker.
Tomorrow starts clinical week 2, and tonight starts clinical prep 2. Yep. I'll be at school until 5 ish prolly, doing paperwork. Yes. I am not kidding. What could possibly be more fun on a Wednesday night, than paperwork? And drug cards. And not the fun drugs.
I, however, have a record speed for completing things like paperwork. I am done way before others, only putting in an hour. Maybe MAYBE an hour and a half. My motto, "do just enough to get by". ok. not the greatest, but really. Just do enough to satisfy the instructors that you know what you are doing, and then dazzle them with your clinical skills. My 120 instructor told me that I just need to keep jumping thru the hoops until I finish. So, I am. Paperwork has always been an annoying thing of mine. Instructors ask me to type it, usually. Well, guess what? I don't have ink in my computer, and am far to lazy to go purchase any, like I have been saying I would, for going on a month, now. Luckily, I have a wonderful friend that will print me the neccessities. haha.
I am pretty leary of clinical. My instructor is terrifying. Which terrifies me. Which then terrifies all the knowledge and skills outta me, as she stands there watching me. So, then I look like an incompetant nitwit. Thank God that we are supposed to get an Unsatisfactory this half of the semester, and not get a Satisfactory until second half. whew. She called a clinical group meeting in the lab this morning. Which means that A) she is going to yell and scream and right us all up or B) she is thouroughly disapointed in our clinical skills. I hope for option B.
I thought I was jazzing thru this with no typos. I was extremely impressed (but a little suspicious) when I saw that there was no underline under "neccessities". THEN I noticed there was no underline under "thouroughly". That is obviously spelled wrong. Yep. Good old school computers DON'T HAVE SPELL CHECK! WHHHHAAAT?!?!?!! Well. Geez.
Ok. Off to pray for B. It is to early to get yelled at.

and you are.....the only exception
I have been slacking on updating. I just took my first test of what will hopefully be my last semester at CHSON. Sigh. I feel ok about it. I studied all the hard topics, and I think I did okay on them, but the easy things, like delgation tricked me up a little. Sigh. Math. Screw you. I hate you.
The last question was "list all of the steps of an IV push". Great. Kill me now. Check compatabilities. Check pt. Id. and I am screwed from there. ha. I don't have my simulation on that for two more weeks. Yet, it is on our test?! Do they really think we had time between now and last week to even look at the skills for that?! Really?
Parking. Crouse can bite me. First semester we parked for free in J lot and took the shuttle to school. Second semester they didn't tell us J lot was closed for us, we got there, pulled in, and then couldn't get out. They then informed us we would have to pay 110 dollars a month to park in the garage. We rioted. It went down to 75. Third semester. Same 75 dollars a month. This semester. It goes up to 85dollars a month and they just informed us that we may have to park somewhere else and they are not giving out anymore passes, so if you didn't have a pass, you are screwed. Thanks, Crouse. Thanks.
I haven't gone grocery shopping yet, cuz Vin had my car yesterday. So it is pretty slim pickings in my house. I boiled some macaroni. Added some milk, and some shredded cheddar. didn't have much of that tho, so I just started throwing things in from my fridge. 4 little cups of blue cheese we got with our chicken wings, a little cup of ranch. a leftover packet of ranch seasoning from the Suddenly Salad I made a while back, and some leftover roasted red peppers. It was delish, I must say.
Heidi and Paul and Emmalynn are up here. We had a blast on Friday and got trashed. Heidi and I spyed on the guys while they were on the porch talking. We wanted to see what they actually talk about. We deduced that all they really do talk about is football and hunting. But then Vin says "I love that woman in there more than anything" and a bunch of other really nice things. <3 and then paul says "yeah, but don't they just piss you off, sometimes" haha.
I miss Heidi like crazy and wish they would move back. Emmalynn has huge seperation anxiety issues. which is normal for her age, and the fact that last time I saw her she waslike 8 months old. lol.
Cathie (my clinical instructor) wants to meet us tomorrow at 815 in the lab. oh boy. that can't be good. I have an hour, still, before class. I always finish my tests way early. Would of been earlier, today, but A) my calculator hated me and was malfunctioning for a bit, and B) I couldn't figure out the first math problem for the longest time. It looked like freakin' arabic or something. THen I realized that it wasn't nearly as hard as I was making it out to bed, solved it and continued on my merry way.
Ok. I am off. I have simulation today. No idea what time. But I know it is sometime after FFASP, which ends at noon and before 2:50. haha.
'list all the steps of an iv push'. really?! at 9am when I haven't even practiced IV push. really?!...and my love/hate relationship w/ Nursing School continues.

Now we're going to walk to the falls quickly and quietly with no rap music or flash dancing
Gotta love Pixar.
I had the idea to write a letter to myself in the future, courtesy of a blog I follow, Bethany's Freelance Life (or something like that). Her, along with Apron Strings, blog, is very amusing, and I read everyone they write. She wrote a letter to herself a year ago, which gave me the idea to do it. I am very excited. I was very optimistic in my letter. I also have it scheduled to post on here, one year from now.
I have my first test tomorrow, for (what I desperately hope) is my last semester.
So why, you ask, am I online and not studying.
Because, dear friends, I don't know how to study. I read and read thru the lectures and the book, but I will retain very little of it, if I didn't already hear it/take notes on it in lecture.
I sure hope I don't fail my first test tomorrow. I hate that I have no idea what the tests will be like....
.....also.....we won't find out for up to FIVE days what our grades are.....sigh. Which means that for the next five days....I will be freaking OUT. Altho, we get a review class, so we have some sort of an idea on our grade.....

True Lies
Really. how is it I have never seen "true Lies" when Arnold is my third favorite man (after My hubby, and Bruce (willis) that is)?! And my father. he is my top man. doesn't even count in my top ten category. Like everyone's father should be.
Jamie lee curtis. I have heard rumors that you were a hermaphrodite. I don't care. I love you just the same.
Arnold, marry me.
Ok. Off to pay my affections to my real husband whom loves me unconditionally despite my many imperfections, and crushes on (much) older celebrities.
But hey. It's only two. Bruce and Arnold. hahaha.
