CR: Day 4
so, after finally hitting the sack after my last blood draw @ 0500, I crawled into my bed, got 4 hours of sleep before somebody decided to leave the door open, rude mofos, and the noise started, then around 10 the video games started, so i gave up on sleep, and made my way out to the common area, and made my little sofa chair area again. quick blood draw, Vitals, ECG and another PFT test, grab some breakfast, and relax by the tv watching movies listening to some crazy stories, about a guy with multiple baby's mommas, and one going crazy and stabbing the new girlfriend, etc.
breakfast(1030) - oatmeal(I'm not eating that), corn muffin, milk, cranberry juice
Lunch(1345)sloppy joe sandwich, lays potato chip, soda water
quick phone call from Miss Danny about yesterdays festivities at the barn
and time to kill till dinner
edited(17:50): after hearing about all the baby mama drama, all the other groups are eating dinner, so our group has reign over the tv, so we're watching baby mama with Tina Fey. There's really nothing else on. We started talking about movies watched during clinical stays. The first study I ever did, back in Chapel Hill, NC almost a decade ago. I can't remember how long we were in that study, but we were all on our first study ever, and it had 100+ blood draws, and we were watching 'Requiem for a Dream'. In case you haven't seen it, Heroin addicts, shooting into the same arm, repeatedly, arm gets infected, ends up in a jail in crappy Carolina, serious lack of brain cells in their prison system and they totally ignore his horribly infected arm until he collapses, and they end up amputating it. So, needless to say, we were a lil freaked out.

Dinner - Tilapia, tomato soup(not eating/drinking that), Rice, steamed veggies, milk(what is up with the 2% fat free milk with every meal?), cherry pie
now waiting for the next set of events and snack. Tomorrow afternoon we get to piece outta here.
for now it's tv time, got to see my show, "how I met Your Mother' since everyone else was off doing their own things. love that show. Another girl claimed the tv for the 9'o clock hour, so we're watching charm school... ridiculous set of chicks on that show.
the electrodes are really starting to itch. b/w the chemical they have on them and the chest hair growing back, I can't wait to take this shit off tomorrow and be able to scratch.
edited(23:32): Snack - Peanut butter(no thanks) ritz crackers, and again with the damn 2% fat free milk.
Final blood draw and ECG of the night, new clips tore off some electrodes, and the vile they used for the blood is expired.. whatever. Like I said, very disorganized. now I'm free to sleep n whatever till 0230 when it's time to switch out the flash card on my Holter unit. Figure I'll go see what's on the other TV since I have zero interest in UFC(current program being watched on this set).
if there's nothing good on, i'll just hit the sack, wake up isn't until 10:00am.
