Those damned vampires keep stealing my coins. And my blood. I'm slow, but not usually *this* slow. All I really know how to do is locate a bar where I drown my sorrow in beer and cheap wine (the good stuff is too expensive), and then go around one-action-standing the hapless humans and vampires I run across. Story of my bloody life...pun only sort of intended.
First day of Psych clinical. It wasn't too bad, probably because I didn't spend that much time interacting with patients. I think I still want to do psychiatric nursing, but there's something easier about walking onto a floor and *just* having to take care of surgical wounds and give meds. One of my classmates summed it up in post-conference as "trying to deal with the cognitive versus the physical" (I'm paraphrasing; she was much more eloquent than that). Events that happened today showed me that minority psychiatric workers are really needed, but I don't know if I personally can take working with the severely disturbed population. I came across my limit and failed miserably a little while ago and I don't think I've grown much since then. To have to do that every day? I don't know. I do want a practice but can I learn what it takes to be good at the job? No idea.
Somewhat lighter note -
almost all my Oscar predictions were way off. The one I'm pissed off about the most? I can not believe 3 Six Mafia won for the song from "Hustle and Flow". Honestly now:
3-Six- Mafia?? Like I give a flaming frack if it's hard out there for a pimp. Who cares - you're a PIMP! Man, I'm sure those voters read my article and were like "screw
fredericks, this song is my
jam". Bastards, all of them. Except for Michael Rosenbaum...although does starring in "Sorority Girls" make you worthy of a ballot?
ETA - Thank all of you for pointing out places I could *ahem*
obtain *ahem* the latest JLU episode. I intend to use all of those establishments once my computer is up and running again. JLU?
classic! Flash and Lex Luther switched brains. I officially need an "I don't wash my hands 'cuz I'm eeeeeeeeevil" icon now.
Book I'm currently reading: I'm unsure of the title, but it's the second part of the Nightrunner series by Lynn Flewelling (and is that name a pseudonym, or what?). It's pretty horrendous but I bought it and, dammit, I'm going to make my way through. There's something about verbal exposition that doesn't stop even into the second book that makes me want to throw bricks through authors' windows.
wc_dragon was a doll and hooked me up with some great
shounen-ai online that's fun. I shall have her babies and steal her boyfriend (*cough* Jin! *cough*) Ah, sharing the man smut: that's what friends are for.
