Now 3 months into the new relationship, and my previous assessment of this gal as a keeper has only grown more certain. She and I are incredibly well-suited to one another -- it's a very nice feeling.

I made my way to New Jersey at October's end for a friend's wedding. One of the best people I know, and his wife seems incredible, though I...

2 weeks into a relationship with a rather incredible gal. Definitely "The One" material except...

in 14 months she goes back to Poland to finish her PhD (in molecular biology, heh). After that...hard to say.

But for right now, things are better than they've been in a long time.

Serious pain at work on Thursday. Into the ER that night. Surgery that morning. One less gall bladder in the world.

My stomach is shaved. It looks freaky.

Best workout ever: Lie down on floor to work the abs. Wake up an hour later.

Should have a six-pack by tomorrow~

I'm glad you argued pro-tattoos and piercings. What did you say? Did they listen?

Thank you so much!

Right...updating!

Dragon*Con was absolutely amazing. Great guests (including Carrie Fisher, Martin Landau, and WTF Ernest Borgnine), great bands (much love especially for Abney Park, Hellblinki, and new fave Frenchy and the Punk). Friends new to the con enjoyed themselves and already purchased their memberships for next year. You should, too.

I took some pictures but have been too lazy to upload. Maybe...

It's been a good couple of weeks. Friends held a 4th of July party yesterday that drew plenty of guests, primarily from the local belly-dance community and their menfolk. The husband is good on the grill (wings especially) and the wife makes terrific pomegranate martinis in particular. It ended with drumming on the deck and s'mores at the firepit and a little dancing on the...

Yeah, decided to resub, a few months later than originally planned, but everything in its own time, right?

When last we left our intrepid hero, he was about to graduate from nursing school with a shiny new bachelor's degree. And he did! Ending up in the ER about 6 hours later with really impressive abdominal pain that a CT and ultrasound couldn't diagnose. Not quite...

Today marks the 1 month point until I graduate. A month or so after that and I should be an RN. Woo.

It's all very exciting, of course, but I got 2 hours of sleep last night after working on a paper, so the celebration is a bit muted at present. Classes are going fairly well, but I really enjoy working in the ER. Every...

Spring break! Which means I get to work on all the papers, projects, graduation prep, NCLEX prep, car maintenance, resume` wrangling, job applying and other entertainments. Fun.

School goes well, overall, though the workload is fairly ridiculous. I finished my clinical rotation on the cardiac floor and will start in the emergency room next week. Definitely looking forward to it. The international nursing honor society...

January update time!

The semester has begun full force, and it would suck hard were it not the last. First week of May I'll be finished, so long as all goes well. This semester's array of classes:

Med-Surg 2 (aka CAPSTONE): This is the heavy hitter, 8 credits worth of class and clinical time. I'm starting with one-two 12 hour shifts a week on a...

Thanks so much for checking out my latest set in review and leaving me a nice comment. blush
ash:
So are u actually going to be a surgical nurse or do u guys just do a little bit of everything in the field to obtain your degree? I always wondered how that worked for RNs because there are just HUNDREDS of extremely varying ways to make a career in nursing, so I would assume if u were to "specialize" in something that you'd have to take specific classes in that department, right?

I can't believe I've watched you go from first yr to your last semester! I am always so envious of ppl that have their shit so together that they can pull off going to school full time and surviving without having to move back home.

Paprika reminds me that I'm lax on my updating (big surprise), so a few quick words to bring me up to the holidays.

The 3rd of 4 semesters is now complete! It was the easiest by far schedule and stress wise, and the grades weren't too bad, though a little short of what I wanted in a couple classes. The GPA remains in decent shape...

This week's much loathed OB clinical was great, and for all the wrong reasons.

First, my poor patient, about 22 hours postpartum, had a seizure. She has a history of them, sporadically, but hadn't had one since January. Transport had just shown up to take her for a tubal ligation she'd been waiting all day for (without eating), and Grand Mal she goes. I...
