I was going to update about shcool and work, but I'm exhausted. And I even slept all day! Thursday I had clinicals all day long, then a major meeting at work, and then Friday morning I had clinicals all day and worked overnight last night. So Today I was supposed to have clinicals AGAIN in the morning, but I called and told her I couldn't do it. It wasn't safe for me to drive, which is honest, but I know people don't believe that unless they have ever beent his tired. So I basicallyt old her it was because i would be useless at the office (yes I would have been) and sinc eit was the planned parenthood out in West Seneca, driving would have wasted more time than I would have actually ben in the office before it closed at 2 pm. Plus, I am not entirely happy about participating at Planned Parenthood, evne though it's not like they're doing abortions 24.7 or that I have been even asked to do one (not tha tI would allow them to pressure me into that--- no way I am participating) but I felt nervous Friday morning walking down the street in my lab coat toward PP and people were honestlyw atching me in their cars (could have been because they were in construction and they were bored, but I felt a "glare" from a few of them! and it's not even my choice!!!). SO anyway, I slept all day, because I was going to have to work again tonight and tomorrow.
Howver, I was blessed because work called me and excused me. We were overflowing last night, but by tonight they booted many of the patients so we had some leeway with staff. I still have to go in at 11 which is fine, at least I got a few hours off. But now I slept all day in anticipation of going in at 7, and I missed out on everything Dave got to enjoy this fine Saturday (open Sabre's practice, downtown all day, casino tonight, etc etc). In fact, my parents and grandparents are even at the casino right now and I can't go! I mean I could, but since i"m excused I feel pressured to do something a little more useful with my time.
I have butloads of school work and "work homework" to do, and I should probalby get going on that. I already checked all my school/work emails and got that accomplished, searched for open houses for this weekend, and now it's time to keep going or else I'm going to be a bum all afternoon in addition to all day.
Actually, now that I think of it, we'll be going to church in the morning out in Hamburg since Dave will likely pick me up from work in the am and it's the best way to get me there- when I'm already up and in the car. That means I really need to bring my thank-you letters for Deacon Gary and the check for the church for the wedding services. They left the amount we give up to us, so we are over-giving as much as we can. We need to talk about what we can afford to do because we both agreed we want to make a larger gift since they were not only so supportive, so welcoming, so warm, and so encouraging, but the fact taht my church DOES NOT DO WEDDINGS FOR MONEY!!! They honestly saw that we wanted a MARRIAGE and did not make financial demands. That is just inspiring. Well, it was to us, anyway.
Alright, better go find somethign warm to eat and find something productive to do. Bye
