Due to the facts that I have a hard time filling out even the simplest of forms, I still have very little understanding as to how the scheduling actually works at my job, and also that I, at times, expect way too much good luck out of life...
I will not be going back to texas for christmas or new years.
"But why?" you say! or maybe "But you promised!" or more likely "who is ananth and how do i remove him from my friends list."
Simply put, I asked for the 24th, the 25th and new years off, which, for some reason I don't understand, given my low seniority, iffy attendance, and general lack of not-being-a-surly-asshole-to-management-when-they-try-to-talk-to-me-at-the-end-of-my-shift, they actually gave me these days off. However, I did not ask for the days off in between. For which they had scheduled me to work all of them. heh.
So, I'll be here... unless of course, there is some kind of miracle....
Sell movie now:
"ANANTH AND HIS ANGEL"
so, it's christmas eve and i've got my plane tickets and everything, but I can't go because i have to work that night. So i sigh, and throw on my scrubs and am about to head out the door, when there's a burst of white light from behind me!
I turn around to see, an ANGEL(like from the title of the movie). And he's all like, "Hey Ananth, I heard your christmas wish and I've decided to grant it! I'll be you for the week, and you get your butt on home!"
Ecstatic, and not the least bit concerned with the fact that I'm a non-praying atheist, I board my plane and go home and have a great time, giving gifts, and cavorting with my friends and all that jazz.
Meanwhile, my angel, who i guess looks like me... is having a terrible time! For one thing, he's a bit of a clutz, and for another he knows nothing about nursing and can't use his angle healing powers or he'll blow his cover. Oh, and he made himself look like me, in case you hadn't figured that out. So, wacky hijinks ensue, nobody actually dies because it's a christmas movie and a good time is had by all.
At some point santa should be in the film.... and maybe.... a greedy land developer, or industrialist who is trying to do something.. bad. And i stop him, somehow. I'll flesh that out later.
Anyway,
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
