Dammit! Now I wanna go here: http://www.hillbillyhotdogs.com/ *Shakes angry little fist at CornerofMadness.* I'm so jonesing for a hotdog with chili and onions... which you can't get here! You ask for a hotdog with chili, they look at you like you've got three heads. ARGH! Well, you know, I was stupid enough to go to the West Virginia Mystery Hole up in Ansted (near Hawks Nest; linky http://www.mysteryhole.com/), I guess I'll be dumb enough to get me a hotdog with those hillbillies. West Virginia is home to some crazy stuff... and not just my family! You want to go to those places? Fine. Let's also visit the Mothman Festival (http://www.mothmanfestival.com/ in September - or stop in at the museum) and the Ramps Festival (for a RIP, ROARING good time, go here: http://www.richwooders.com/ramp/ramps.htm they stink and make you stink, if you get my drift... but I haven't eaten ramps so I've not had any "drift"... whatever).
This week at work will suck massive monkey nuts. Several of the day shift people who come in for morning rounds are off. Sucks.
OK. Gentlemen, please. If you start to have a pink or red cast to your urine, please o please go to your doctor. Do NOT wait until you are pissing blood clots. I had TWO older men come in via the ER who were both doing this. Bad. Also this evening, I had a patient come in with a kidney stone - she had pretty Calcium oxalate crystals in her urine. They're my favorite. :) Painful as all hell (been there, did that) but they're pretty.
Just one of the weird things that I notice: had a patient who is nearly 95 years old. She was born several years after the Titanic sank and WW1 ended. Next year will be the hundredth year anniversary of the Titanic disaster. OMG. Amazes me how those things from so long ago seem like part of me. Does that make sense? I don't think I'm reincarnated - I could be but I have no recollection of past lives or anything like that. I'm just so much of a history nerd, that I read a lot about these events and they become second nature to me.
I've been thinking about my depression lately. As I've mentioned, I think it's getting worse. It amazes me that I've had this so long and that I've not given up. I find that I am tired of fighting it. It is time to get my meds adjusted. I haven't reached the "I quit" stage yet but I can see it. I don't want to get there.
Think I will go put on my jammies and maybe draw. :)
