Needles

Jeez.... I just got another shot, but at least this one was SQ instead of IM- those intramuscular ones hurt pretty good! I was lucky to get a lil 25 gauge needle. It's interesting that my lab work came back with low titers for mumps, but not measles, rubella, and varicella. I wonder what is going on? Is my immune system going wacky or something? I just had titers done almost exactly a year ago before working at Cottage Hospital and they were fine.... hmmmmm???

I can't complain, but dang shots are expensive. MMR is $75.00! So for my physical and immunizations I have spent over $450.00 out of pocket *looks in wallet and sees a huge hole*

=(

Oh btw pregnant women stay away from me cause it's a live vaccine! haaaaah

Started using a kettle bell for working out and it is amazing. I can get my heart rate from 58 to over 110 in under 4 minutes by doing alternate arm swings! It'd take me about 10 minutes of jogging to do that!

Excited for Sunday! Rock n Roll marathon medical station time! woot!

Jerry Garcia Ties

There is something so cool and artsy about these ties. I have started collecting them just recently; if you want to get me a present let this be the thing you can get me.... just make sure I don't have that one already. =D

"Duckworm Alarm" (the first one I bought)
"Alligator Works" (the second one I bought)
"Inferno" (my one year tie Lovely Lady bought me)

Resignation

So I sent in my resignation letter today and no longer work at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital.

*sigh*

this means there's a new chapter in my life that is starting (officially).

Mom just got her 7th chemo dose and is doing well, but still feels considerably weak the couple days after...

Lovely Lady is starting school and also getting her study on, while Normie is back to being a terror at home; hopefully he isn't too upset about being away from me =D

Recently I received my first anniversary tie, even though it was belated! My Lovely Lady and I have a thing where every year she will get me a Jerry Garcia tie. Now I have 3!!! I'll post pics soon!
