I went to Portland Maine this last weekend to go skiing. It was tons of fun to hang out with friends and engage in my favorite sport; it even snowed about 8 inches on sunday, making for a really excellent experience. The fun ended pretty quickly when we left though ( Read more... )

For almost a year and a half now I've worked almost completely on weird night time hours that have forced to me into some kind of strange subhuman existence. Well, I am pleased to announce that shortly I will be moving to a normal schedule and becoming a regular human being again. The paperwork was put in today. I suspect it will take about a ( Read more... )

I just spent almost an hour looking for gas near my work so I could get home tonight. After no success I finally had to try to get to my mother's house so I would not completely run out. After barely making it I had to borrow her car to continue searching. Finally I found a place that had some and filled up a couple of 1 gallon gas cans to ( Read more... )

I found out today that someone on the day shift has turned in their two weeks notice. This means that after one guy moves from our shift, I will be next in line. Couple that with the fact that another girl is about to head to medical school, it really shouldn't be too long before I am working on daytime hours ( Read more... )

What exactly is the point of posting a private livejournal entry I wonder? I think it high time I bought a regular ass journal.

I've purposely been avoiding livejournal for some time now because it tends to lead to pretty serious melodrama, but I suppose that is the nature of all journals particularly one as voyeuristic as an online one (even though I suspect few people even read this anymore). In any case, lots of things have happened since any serious update has gone ( Read more... )

A friend of mine at work has a sister that has tickets to nurse's industry night at six flags. It is on Friday sept. 26th from 6pm-midnight and should be fairly empty compared to most days at the park. Tickets are $24.50 and you get a free pass to six flags that can be used later in the year. Anyone interested? If so let me know cause I need to ( Read more... )

I just went through several hundred pictures of the last 5-6 years of my life on my computer and I'm pretty blown away. We've had some grand times for sure, and the only thing I can think is that I am incredibly lucky to have had such awesome friends. Lately I feel like I haven't been around much and I miss the people I have been close to in the ( Read more... )

I'll try and keep this short. If you haven't heard already, I passed my certification exam so I am now officially a clinical laboratory scientist. This means I can work directly with the microorganisms we find in the human tissue samples. A raise and promotion are also included. Go me ( Read more... )

Long time since the last update so I won't bother to say everything that has happened, just the more recent events. I just got back from a weekend trip to Las Vegas with some of my oldest and best friends. Despite some traveling difficulties by one of my compatriots I think a good time was had overall. I even managed with win around $300 from ( Read more... )
