Today

[bookofmirrors]

Today, I feel like shit. Achy, crampy, sinusy, and I think headachy is coming on. I'm not entirely please with this, considering I was supposed to be somewhere today. It's not nearly as fun being lazy if you're not enjoying yourself in the process.

jupitercornwall is stopping by later to drop off a monitor for me. Apparently Joe (I'm assuming he means jodydavidson) gave him a bunch of stuff, and he heard about my monitor woes, and he and Dec are gonna be out later today anyway, so he's gonna drop it off. He's the bestest that way. Not to mention other ways. :)

Anyway, I wanted to mention that, Friday night, I got a call from the charge nurse, wanting to see how I was doing, and offer her support. She said she'd been in my position in the past, and knew what it was like. She also said it wasn't her idea to send me home, and she would have handled things differently (which, she already had). She also said that, in her opinion, if they fired me, they were getting rid of a good nurse. She did say, though, that if I did get fired, I could just get another nursing job. Which is true. It was good of her to put that in perspective.

I'm hoping that the revelations I had (noted in my last post) are enough to keep the Universe from felling the final blow on this situation. If I do end up losing my job, I'm going to assume that it's all for the best, and that the Universe has something even better in store for me. I did find some information that profundis had sent me a while back on some stuff, so I may look into that.

Honestly, I'm feeling much better about the whole thing. Of course, come Monday when I go back, I'll be nervous as hell, but I do feel an underlying calm about it that wasn't there before. I'm hoping I feel better by tomorrow. Right now, for instance, I don't think I could work. But I figure even if I feel like shit, I should go at least long enough to see what's up. If they fire me, I can go home. If they don't, I can always ask to go home after that (although it might not be the best choice to do so). I'll play it by ear, I guess.

Anyway, that's where I stand. I'm caught up on all email and LJ, and I actually have some spare time now and again, so I should be better at keeping up LJ, and writing some REAL posts periodically.

Sorry you feel so shitty. Feel better soon, 'k?

Thank you! I feel a bit better after a couple of naps and some sex. :) I'm hoping to be at full capacity in the morning. :)

Glad you're feeling better, too, sweetie!

I hope the monitor works well for you. It does take a little while to warm up, so I don't know how long it will last. I knew that Brian would find someone who could use it.

Thank you! :) I either have a bad monitor, a bad video card, or both. My colors are way off. So, I figure I can try this monitor and see if it works better than the one I have. When I feel better, I'll hook it up. :)
