Fridays

Well, the Friday work day has come and gone...and I survived. For you see, it just happens to be a FULL MOON TONIGHT! On or around a full moon, the strangest people find their way into our clinic, or just decide to harrass you on the phone. I am usually doing phone triage on a Friday-and on a day like today, a countless number of people are very pushy, impatient, rude, and generally weird and whacked-out.

What I don't like about any Friday are the usual Friday afternoon narcotic seekers..."I couldn't make it to my appointment today (he hasn't been seen in over a year) but I need some Vicodin nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Today was Dr. Schneider's last day...so instead of having the traditional pot luck, we opted to have a dessert bar. I will miss her. Here's a few pics taken by the crappy camera in my crappy phone...

















We look like depressed workers in a sweat shop or something. Geesh. Told ya the camera was crappy.

Ta ta for now...

Doggie Steps

We went to the Woodbury Petsmart to buy Oreo some Doggie Steps. The new bed is a little too high for her, and I don't want to take the chance of her injuring her back like last year.




She loves going to Petsmart, but unfortunately she lacks social skills and kinda loses it when another dog wants to say hello. She's not mean...she just gets overexcited. Here's a pic before she saw the black dog then peed all over the floor.



Speaking of my new bed.........ohhhhhhhhhh........why didn't I get a Sleep Number Bed before now? They delivered it last Friday, and I've been in heaven ever since. I'm a 35...what's YOUR sleep number???

Well I'm tired and need to go to bed...I have alot of reviews to do on employees tomorrow, and I'm starting the interview process for a new HUC. Even Oreo is tuckered out after that short trip to the store...cya...

Digital Camera Fun

Ok, so I finally figured out how to load my pics/movies from my camera to my lappy. Wanna see? Here's a short movie I took at a recent Wild game (we have season tickets)...


Yeah! Wild have the best record in the league 7-1!!! It's gonna be a great season!

Say...Trader Joe's was awesome...the "shelves are stocked full of delicious foods and beverages from the basics like milk, bread and butter to more exotic fare like imported cheeses, organic produce and hand-tossed pizza from Italy." Cedar planks line the walls, and the staff all wear Hawaiian shirts. I'm definately going back!

Well I need to go to bed so I can go to work early tomorrow for a pharmacy formulary meeting. Ugh. Nighty-night :)

First post...

Well, here I am at my first post. What should I blog about? Something deep and thought provoking? Something sad and heart-wrenching? Nahhh...I'll just tell you how it is...

This afternoon at 1 pm I'm still in my pajamas, sipping my coffee and playing around with this blog. Pretty soon we're leaving to check out this new grocery store (yes, I said "grocery store") named Trader Joe's. It's supposed to be a veryyy different kind of grocery store. I'll tell you all about it later.

Last night my husband and I went to a new comedy club in Bloomington called the Joke Joint. It was fun-I especially liked the second comic named Tod Andrews who was originally from Boston and still had the accent. Much of his comedy made reference to the East coast where I am originally from, so I laughed at most of his jokes. The headliner, Alex Cole, was pretty good, but he was kinda old and we also think that he farted twice while onstage (we were in the front row and our noses were the recipients of these farts-ewww).

I should get going...talk to you later...
