Somehow, Mother Nature has an evil streak...
So I go for a whole semester without ever having the wonderful "monthly" during clinical.
And what happens?
I wake up at 5 AM this morning with the worst cramps known to mankind and the knowledge that it'll take a full hour before the motrin kicks in completely.
Killjoy. And I didn't even have to get up until 6 AM. Yeee gah...and lying down helped only a smidge.
Doesn't help I've been so dang irregular. I swear, I was a full month and a half LATE...and that screwed my hormones up...not to mention I kept getting acne with no actuality of anythin occurring...not to mention, I gained weight...about three pounds...which thankfully disappears afterwards...weird...
My eggs this morning were also bad. Blech...I found the bad ones this morning...so yeah, didn't really have breakfast...does yogurt count with a glass of milk?
Fortunately, had a wonderful day in clinical. YAYS!!! Only one more psych clinical in the hospital before I can declare myself officially done with that particular aspect of the course. Then I'll be doing more outpatient visits to facilities in the area. Which is cool!!!
Nothing much to do until this weekend. Class tomorrow...yays...and then home for some of the most awesome pizza ever!!!! And the pleasure of my wonderful family's company!!!
Got a lot happening in the next 18 days. Two preassessments, two clinicals in trauma, one psych clinical, two homework assignments, a mental status exam, one IPR, group project, psych quiz, and oh yes, the ever looming test of doom -- Nursing Science...aka the BANE OF OUR NURSING EXISTENCE!!!!!!! Not to mention Kris's wedding and Andy's arrival. *squawks* And I'm doing one of the readings at the wedding!!!!!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
And hyperactivity is here. Going away now to blow off some steam.
