A jambalaya of an entry
::hugs FL:: It's great reading about your early writing experiences. Thanks for taking the time to click "reply" and share.
Worked the last OT last night. Man, I really like that floor. It's more spacious than my floor, the axillary staff is much more helpful, the staff in general is more friendly, it's just awesome in a basket of greatness. Last night wasn't too bad, but the night before I had my first patient die during shift. It was a miserable experience, especially since I couldn't find it in me to just let her go (90-odd year old, basically on palliative care, DNR/DNI) and fought to keep her alive until she gave up the ghost around 3AM. We did what we could and, yeah. It was her time.
Sleep has been hard to come by this evening. I snatched a couple of hours here and there, but hopefully I can find a way to become fully rested before my shift tomorrow.
At the Museum of Natural History: a Mythic Creatures Exhibit. Anyone want to head out there with me this upcoming Monday or Tuesday?
I have a S1 of Deep Space Nine to give away (practically - for the low low price of $20 + shipping/handling) as I snagged the S1-7 set Amazon was selling for a majorly discounted price. If anyone wants it reply and let me know.
I'm not reading nearly enough this year. I want to see if I can finish 50 books by year's end. Does anyone have any suggestions/recommendations for works I should tackle? Anything goes.

Hm...
Have you ever read "The Count of Monte Cristo"? I know it's a classic, and you've probably read it, but it's fast becoming my favorite classic. And of course, there's Deathly Hallows coming up. *grin* If I think of anything else, I'll definitely let you know.
Re: Hm...
There are a couple of Dumas books I have to revisit. I read Count a long time ago, but re-reading is always fun when the book is enjoyable.
Re: Hm...
And I agree wholeheartedly about rereading of books. And Count is very, very enjoyable. (:
