• Today was my first day of work.  It was only decided yesterday afternoon that I would work today.  And of course, as all good first days go, it started off...Interestingly.  I left myself MORE than enough time.  Of course, as I'm backing up in my giant truck with NO power steering, some idiot in a small car comes along & thinks they need the room of a mack truck to pass.  I got close to the car parked behind me, but nothing came of it except another car that drove up behind me honking, not realizing that I was face to face with a complete idiot.  Then I get to the entrance, and the out-going side is blocked by a broken down cable truck.  So, I go to the in-coming side, wait for traffic to pass & gun it so I don't block the only way in or out.  Then driving took longer than expected because....well....people down here don't drive like NYers.  I got to work on time, but, I was biting my nails there for a little while.

  
  

  Work itself was great.  I ran some blood tests, was in surgery, got to wrap some surgical instruments, restrained, made up some meds, they showed me how they do all their stuff, including in house urinalyses (there's a few different things involved), and a whole bunch of stuff.  It was great, really, although at least one of the doctors & one of the techs are die-hard Christians (I don't want to say born-again b/c I'm not sure if they are, they are just VERY strong in their faith), which only has me concerned since I wear I pentacle AND a triple-Goddess moon. )O(    Oh well, all I can do is hope that it does not cause a problem.  I just don't want to offend them or cause any kind of riff because I don't go to church every Sunday. 

  
  

  Well, it is getting late.  I need to get up to go to work in the morning (Yippee!).  Have a great night, all.  Much love and many blessings to you all!
