I am pretty sure there is a better word to use when people pass on. I’ve heard it before and then about 100x today and it grinds my nerves.

Saying a person has expired is correct usage of the word, but I think it sounds freakin’ awful. To me, it sounds like the person is yogurt or some sort of food product. I would just prefer to hear the words, passed on, deceased, gone, or even dead.

I know, what a random rant but whatever.

I guess I need to start posting some actual stuff on here. All the spam comments are starting to creep through and it makes me angry! I hate reading stupid comments from people that are trying to sell either themselves or some other crap.

Life. Life has been good as of late. I am loving every minute of my job. I have learned SO much in just two short week. I think I am going to love being a nurse! It really is a tough job, but the patients are worth it. I have yet to meet a patient that makes me crazy. I’m sure that moment is coming. I think I will have to be a nurse for a few years before I get jaded….at least I hope. Actually, I hope I am never jaded. I have seen some interesting stuff thus far and feel as though that will continue throughout my summer. One thing is for sure, I will be the master of hanging piggyback IV bags and programming pumps

I have a FAST (Red Cross First Aid Service Team) event this weekend and that should be fun. I haven’t seen much action where that is concerned, but am pretty sure I will be a master of the band aids by the end of summer.

Monkey is playing baseball and loving it. He is doing really well for his first season. He is also in summer school and pretty excited about his CSI class. I guess at the end of summer school they get to solve a ‘real’ case. He was all excited last week because they lifted fingerprints with cocoa powder. I love him!

I guess that is the long and short of it. Mike and I are busy doing stuff the weekends we don’t have our babies and when we have our babies, we are busy spending time with them!!

Oh and I am SO happy we finally got some warm weather up in this hizzy!!

Okay, so I needed some new clothes for my job, right? Well, I placed the order, online, Wednesday night. I went ahead and paid extra for 2 day air figuring I would get my package by Monday at the latest. I called today because I have yet to receive any sort of notice that my order was shipped. The man on the phone told me it was 2-3 day service. I said, “That is not what your site says.” Anyway, he proceeds to tell me I placed the order on the 5th and it takes 24 hrs. to process the order. I get that, but then you should not promise 2 day air if it will take at least 3 days to actually get your product. Am I wrong here? Not to mention I paid an extra six dollars and guess when I should get my package? Yeah, by fucking Wednesday!! I am PISSED! I emailed and tried to cancel my order but that is most likely not going to happen. I want to ship ALL my shit back but then I will lose all the shipping I paid plus the cost to ship the items back. What a piece of shit Allheart.com is. Yeah, that’s right, I am blasting them on my site.

Like I said, I will never order from them again. I have never had a problem with them before but this pisses me right off!! I even said to the guy, “How can you say it takes 2 days and it is actually going to take a week.” He said, “It’s 2-3 days and we have to process the order, blah blah.” I said, “Well you shouldn’t advertise 2 day air and it take a week to get to the customer.” He says, “That isn’t a week, you should have it by Wednesday.” I said, “Yeah, and the order was placed on Thursday, that is basically a week.” I told him that it was ridiculous that I paid extra for 2 day and it will take a week for me to receive my order. He wasn’t getting it and he said that Thursday was the latest I should get it. UGH!! What a fucking rocket scientist. Wow, that is seven days and last I checked, a week is seven days.

So I officially started my new job today. I had training 3 days last week and the first 3 days of this week. I think I am going to LOVE my new job (I will miss my bank buddies though).

Oh, I’m a nurse extern. Sorry, forgot to mention that.

Anyhow. Not a ton to say about it other than the staff have all been wonderful and the patients are awesome. I mean, they are all really sick but mostly in good spirits. I am working on the hematology/oncology floor and I have never seen or hung so many bags of antibiotics!! It was pretty amazing to say the least. I am looking forward to learning a crap ton this summer and honing in on my skills, yo!!

Soooo that is what I am doing for the summer.
