• (x-post) Week One, Done!

  August 10, 2013

  Well. I finished my first week on 3-11's. Wow are they different than 11-7. I mean, obviously the kids are awake for the majority of the shift. That's one major difference. And with that difference comes all kinds of chaos. I feel unbalanced, but every day is a bit better. I mostly learn the rule...

  Well, I start shadowing for my new position on Wednesday. I will shadow Wed, Thurs, and the following Wed (I think), and then I'm off and running (eek). I did end up losing $3.90/hr, but I can live with that. I think I got the highest salary I could get, starting out. And I'm already si...

  So. It looks like I'm in for another big change. A few weeks ago, one of the Clinical Supervisors at work asked me if I'd consider coming to days on his unit. This is the same guy that, at the end of my training said I was a waste of good skill on night shift.…

  My view right now Sitting in my favourite cafe (the only cafe) watching the world go by outside the window. Let me rewind a few days. My internet died suddenly on Wednesday. I thought it was maybe just a glitch in something, so I restarted everything and waited and did it again and let it si...

  So. My supervisor just informed me that kindles are now banned from work. WTF!! Apparently someone on nite shift lost theirs and told administration, who until then was unaware they'd been in use. So no more kindle. This is going to make my job suck. :( it was so convenient, to have as many books...

  So, I finally programmed one of the "favourites" list on my direct tv (previously the only channel I had in it was USA, so I could easily find Law & Order SVU). Now I have a dozen channels, ranging from The Women's Channel to Spike. I might actually watch more tv now. Which would be...

  I'm in the mood to write, but have nothing to write about. I'm at work and I just finished the first book of The Hunger Games and started the second, but I think I want to let the first sink in a bit, ya know....savor it. Hmmm the kindle says I spelled savor wrong. And that I…

  Weeee. Worked last nite and then drove to La's this morning. Had a lovely 4hr chat session, covering topics from Monsonto (or however you spell it) to the purpose of cicadas to the the parceling gayness into so many categories and when will it end to gun ownership. She just got a gun from her&hel...

    The silence tonite is a bit mindnumbing. I decided to try and write a real entry with Evernote. So far it's ok, I'm getting used to the dumb autocorrection of the program. It is a bit frustrating having to pick out the letters one by one, but if I use two fingers instead of…
