I trained this week, and after we finished yesterday I realised how cathartic the third day is for me. This is because, at the end of the day, we do scenarios. I never do exactly the same thing, but I almost always pick someone in the class that I want to beat up, and I go for them. Olly asked me last night 'what would happen if you got them?' and I wasn't really sure. I said that I hoped I'd stop, but I do get into character. Yesterday, the only thing that broke my character was my friend Lee choking on Fanta after witnessing the following: his girlfriend tried to verbally de-escalate me during a hold by offering me a cup of tea, to which I replied in my most indignant voice "I DON'T DRINK *TEA*!" It's just funny how much I love being able to flip out for my job and having people hold me back. Yesterday's class were so good and not over-the-top, though I do have many bruises.

I have my surgery date now, and train two more classes before then- so I only have two days on the unit before then. The unit hasn't been terrible lately, but I am liking this arrangement. I have my interview for the new job next week sometime- details working out because my interviewer has to give up a member of her staff to cover me when I have the interview! After surgery I'm taking two weeks off and then taking two weeks of nights before I go to the US. We'll see how that all goes.

I am really sick lately. I don't know how much of it is the gall bladder and how much is just working in a germ factory, but I am run down. I need the upcoming surgery just for the break it's giving me.
