Apparently, is still a nurse.  I made Katie mad earlier, well the other day actually, by saying she wasn't a nurse.  I contested that a nurse is someone not arbitrarily in the medical field with a nursing degree, but rather someone that deals specifically with patient care.  The dictionary simply defines it as "a person formally educated and

When I graduate (god help me, 2 years, 8 months and counting), you will refer to me as a doctor.

You can say whatever you want about me (seriously, dude it's totally cool - I anticipate having an inflated ego and an array of sharp, pointy objects) but you will say all that shit about Doctor Hillary.

Well, dentists fall under the category of medical doctors. Even podiatrists, too.

I'm sorry. I did over react tonight. I know that you were just making a joke about Robert, and that is what you do. I do want to insert that Robert didn't in any way make fun of you. I don't want you to think that he poked fun at your stature at all. Someone, one of the neighbors I think, had made a comment about how 'different' he was compared to the other people I had been out with. Namely you and Richard... I elaborated for him that you were a very small guy... I said that. When he met you he said to me afterward that I had said you were small, but he really hadn't thought about what that meant, given that I was with *him*... he was just suprised. His comment was in no way degrading. I only want to clarify that, because it was ME that joked to YOU about YOU being scrawny

That was my point, you do more stuff than a nurse. You did nurse stuff, and now you do stuff a nurse can't do. So I would think you wouldn't want to simply say "I'm a nurse", when you can make up a name for your new job. People would probably be more impressed by it anyway.

Basically- I'm very insecure lately and I have a lot of fear. I am afraid I won't be enough for Robert to maintain a long distance relationship. I am afraid that if I do, that Ashton will not like him or will not bond with him... I'n afraid Ashton WILL like him and WILL bond with him and not understand why he isn't around. I'm afraid I won't be good enough sexually. I'm afraid that I am wasting my nursing degree. I am afraid of how to incorporate a healthy relationship into the already complicated relationship between you and Ally and me and Ashton. It is so common place to you and I (and Ally because she has been there since day one) that it is difficult to see it from an outsider perspective. I would NEVER be involved with anyone that couldn't accept my relationship and friendship with you... but in turn... I wonder why I would risk sacraficing that for a man who left me and makes fun of my choices

I believe he is lactose intolerant. Travis said he didn't believe I was lactose intolerant because he has seen me drink milk. I replied to that with "It's intolerance, not hemmorage and die from it". I can drink milk seven days a week and not have a problem, but then one day it will hurt a little, and occasionally it will hurt like hell. I find that 2% does lessen the effects though, which you buy. But I honestly do think he is, and as an excuse it made my mom finally shut up about his occasional stomach pains. Until I offered that up, she wanted me to take him and have abdomen x-rays. She thought he had ulcers, for christ sake. So let's just say he is, even if he isn't. And I make jokes with Ashton, so he'll get used to the situation, and I want to be open and honest about everything. Like Erin trying to whisper that one of the turtles disappeared, he would have noticed eventually. So I just told him, much to her dismay, but he took it fine. I think if we don't act like his life is any different than any other kids, then
