North Carolina officially scares me. I ate at Zaxbys today and one of the employees was in the bathroom smoking on the can. I'm guessing something like 80% of the population dies from a tobacco-related illness.
I was incredibly productive today, but somehow, it never seems to be enough! There's a mile long list of things to do. There aren't enough hours in the day.
I passed my CNA test =D
I kept nailing my blood pressures and skills, so I was pretty happy about that. I was nervous that somehow I'd be the retard who couldn't take a blood pressure.
So that's another step taken in my on-going education. So far, I like what I'm doing. That's a good sign. Chris found a near-by program for paramedic to nurse. I think he might want to be a helicopter nurse or something, which he'd be good at. My parents want to help him do that. He's good at all that blood-and-guts-as-it's-happening crisis stuff. Me? Still have trouble with projectile vomit and wet hairballs. And the smell of catheters. Yew!
The puppies are like 24/7 sumo wrestlers. I kicked them out of the room this morning. How did they respond? They threw themselves against the door until they busted it open, jumped on the bed, straddled me, and chewed their squeak toys in my ears!! <3 They bring me so much joy.
I saw that dragon movie. I wasn't super impressed. It was one of those where I walked away not regretting that I plunked down $7 but not glad that I had either. Sometimes it felt too cheesy or like it was channeling LOTR. Am I hard to impress or something?
