“Optimism is denial, so face the facts and move on.”

~Unknown

See, and people laugh at me when I say, “Hey, I’m just being realistic.” Pessimism can be equated to realism in some instances and I am obviously not the only person who thinks so. Life is not always rainbows and butterflies and more often than not, the truth hurts.

Morphine was named after Morpheus, the Greek god of dreams. Probably because of the euphoric effect this drug can have. That and it is used for all kinds of stuff, not just to get high

A fun fact brought to you by: Richard A. Lehne, the writer of my awesome pharmacology book titled Pharmacology For Nursing Care (6th edition, btw). Wow, I am a serious dork!

Pens! I just found the most perfect pens EVER!! I am somewhat of a pen whore. What can I say, I like having several different pens in my collection.

I purchased the most perfect writing instrument last night, the Pilot Precise P-700 Gel Roller pen. Writing with these pens is pure heaven, ya’ll! I used to hate gel ink because it gets all leaky n’ stuff, but not my Pilot pens. Another company, who’s name I won’t mention, makes pretty pens but the ink leaks all over your paper. I am way too OCD to have pen leaks all over the place.

I will be hiding these pens from my boyfriend because he will steal them, I just know it! We both have some sort of pen freakishness going on. He likes the company that makes leaky pens and I know once he tries my Pilot beauties he will want them.

Sorry. That was probably the most boring drivel you have ever heard in your life!

PS A good ol’ Bic mechanical pencil also melts my heart!! I loves me some Bic pencils. You have got to have fine point in whatever you are writing with! Medium is for sloppy folks
