Tick tock...
Mar. 31st, 2005 10:43 amI cannot believe I only have 6 more days of work left! This time has gone by pretty fast, and while I’m really going to miss almost everyone here, I can’t wait to get out. Plus, the lady I’ve trained is driving me nuts. She always asks me questions, which isn’t a problem in and of itself, but she asks me things that I’ve written up procedures for. What was the point of me writing all that stuff if she’s not going to refer to it? I always thought I’d want a job where I got to sit at a desk all day and use a computer. Now that I’ve been doing that, I can’t wait to get back into a job where I’m moving around a little bit. I think that’s a small part of why I’ve gained weight over the past couple of years. I used to work retail, and for a homeowners association, so I was constantly on my feet, walking around. But once I got these sedentary jobs, I started gaining. Granted, I’m not overweight by any stretch of the imagination, but I know what I used to look like, and it’s not what I look like now, so it’s no good.
I did one of my procedures over again last night. The first time I did it, I took a really long time to set up, and I did pretty well on the procedure itself, so my teacher wanted me to redo it. I flew through it last night, and everything turned out really well. I would wager to say it was my best performance to date. I talked to him a little bit more about the externship situation, especially after hearing another teacher say that the contract for this hospital hadn’t been finalized. My teacher said that the other guy didn’t know what he was talking about, so I don’t know what to believe right now. Regardless, my teacher said that he would recommend me for the hospital where he works! So as long as everything pans out, I’ll get to go there! If I have to wait too long though, I might end up going somewhere else, as we can’t go too far beyond the four months of me not working.
Steve and I are going to Phoenix this weekend for a baby shower. The way it sounds, yes, that’s a long way to drive for a baby shower, but the circumstances are a little different. My cousin and her husband have wanted a baby for a long time, but they were unable to conceive. When they actually did get pregnant, they were very excited, but then she ended up having a miscarriage. Now they’ve adopted a baby, born two weeks ago, and they’ve named him Tyler. So this weekend, they’re having a baby shower/adoption party for him. I consider these extenuating circumstances, so of course I want to be a part of it. Steve agreed to go, but now, he’s giving me nothing but crap (which he ALWAYS does whenever we go somewhere I want to go), saying that it’s ridiculous to drive 6 hours to go to a baby shower. And he hasn’t been shy about telling me that the people he has told about it think it’s stupid too. Well, that’s because he didn’t explain the situation; he just said it was a baby shower. If someone told me they were driving 6 hours for a baby shower, I might think it was a little ridiculous too. Do you think it’s ridiculous for me to want to go out there?
This morning, Steve emailed me, saying that if we can drive all the way to Phoenix for a baby shower, then we should drive all the way to Salt Lake City to watch a World Cup qualifying match. I think he was expecting me to say no, and then use that as an out so that he wouldn’t have to come with me to Phoenix this weekend. I said yes though, because I’m always up for a road trip, and I’ve never been to Utah, so it will be something new for the both of us. The game is in June, which creates two problems. First of all, it’s going to be hotter than hell during that time. Second of all, this will be during my externship, and I found out that the externship is a Monday-Friday deal, not Monday-Thursday, like my classes are. Therefore, that means we’ll have to either head out of town Friday night and drive all night, or we’ll have to fly. Given the expense, and Steve’s fear of flying, we will most likely be driving there. Luckily, the game isn’t until 5:30pm on a Saturday, so we’ll have plenty of time to get there.
Good news! I just got a phone call from the optical office, and my glasses are ready, yay! Even though it’s going to be a tight squeeze, I’m going to drive up there on my lunch break and pick them up. I’m so excited!
