For those of you that don't use twitter or Facebook, I will post some content for you in my very tired and a little loopy state. Or rather whatever content I can provide in the semi-waking state that I am in at the moment.
So I started my new job like three and a half weeks ago. The first week was orientation stuff.....which basically means a bunch of boring information that I mostly learned at Whitfield. The second and third weeks were orientation on the units. I keep wanting to say buildings, but three out of the four units are in one building. Anyway, I was put on the childrens' unit, which is the unit I'll be working on, for the first four days. It was actually kinda nice.....not a whole lot going on. Then I got stuck on the adolescent girls' unit on Friday. This was a bit weird since it was casual day which means I basically looked like a patient. Anyway, it was interesting to say the least. The second week, I got put on the adult building that Monday. It was pretty slow up until we had to check two new patients' clothes and such. Pretty much that whole second week I was on adolescent boys', girls', or adults unit. This week I am officially out of orientation and am working on the childrens' unit like I should be. So far it's been not too horribly bad. Today was probably the worst out of the whole time. Those kids can be tiring. I swear you can tell them millions of times to do something, but until someone else tells them they don't listen. Maybe it's just 'cause I'm new. Who knows.....all I know is I'm freaking exhausted today. It doesn't really help that I have to get up at 4:00 in the morning to get to work on time. All I can say right now is that if I ever had any teeny tiny thoughts about having children, they were all banished in just this one day.
I got my first check from work this past Friday. It was nice to have money again. I paid my insurance, late cell phone bill, and bought some much needed things that I wasn't able to get for a while. I even got some healthier groceries. I still need to get my oil changed and my tires and such checked. It's gonna have to wait 'til next paycheck though. I gotta refill my birth control out of next paycheck too. I'm hoping to have my insurance card by then, but I don't know when all that kicks in.
I've figured out that I can now afford to go to A-kon and DragonCon next year if I want to go. So I figure if I start saving money at the end of December/beginning of January I should have plenty of money for both cons. Maybe start a little sooner for A-kon. I can also get my Jessica Rabbit costume made for Halloween this year. Yey!!!!!! I can even go to Ren. Faire in Hammond with no problems.....that's assuming I can get someone to go with me. Kristin, you interested? Anyone else?
Anyway, that's about it. I'm very tired and really just wanna sleep right now, but I gotta wait a little while.
Oh yeah! I got this message in my Myspace mail. I think it's too hilarious not to share. Enjoy :)
Hi there Heather
I'm Shelly..Just a quick question for you. I have a lover that travels pretty regularly to your area. You're very pretty and I was just wondering if you might be interested in spending time with him whenever he's there.
He's in his early 30's, white, kind, very handsome, and also married..so complete discretion would be required. Please let me know..I think you would be a great surprise for him and I think he would really like you.
I'm wondering if this woman is the man's wife. And if so, then why the hell is she letting him sleep with other women? Also why me? She knows absolutely nothing about me other than what's on my Myspace page. Did she find other people on Myspace that she asked the same thing? What makes this woman think I want to sleep with a married man I know nothing about? Only thing I can say about this is that she's at least literate and knows how to type. I don't know what she or her husband/lover look like. Her Myspace page is locked to friends only.
I'm really done now.
