I worked Thursday and Friday. I swear, I think every underage ASU student was in the ER both nights drunk and naked! I can't believe how many kids under the age of 21 are clubbing and doing drugs. Makes me want to call all their parents! KWIM? Then there was the girl who tried to convince us that her jaw as dislocated by clenching her teeth and talking with her mouth closed. She insisted that "this happens all the time and they give me valium and dilaudid IV". Well, first of all her jaw wasn't dislocated, second we knew right from that comment she was drug seeking. Oh yeah, there was the girl who had a headache and they always given her dilaudid and phenergan. And right when I gave her the first shot, she goes "I usually have to have two or more shots." What? The first shot alone would have knocked me out. All of these patients were 22 or under. What the heck is going on in our country that all these young kids know what the heavy narcotics are? They were raised going to the ER for everything instead of their family doctor. You know, you always get the "good stuff" in the ER and hey, did you hear you don't have to pay? Yeah, right. Let me write a check for you honey.
Saturday was a bit more fun. Got up around 4pm (I didn't go to bed from working all night until 10:30am). Got the kiddos and took them to a Halloween party at the martial arts place. They looked so cute. Caleb was Yu-gi-oh and Hannah was a pirate. They had the best time. So did I. I got to go shopping at WalMart all by myself! 
I spent a little, ha ha. I could have spent more but I only had about an hour or so till I had to leave and go back and pick up the kids.
David just handed me a framed picture of the lion and lioness I took at the wild life park when we were in San Diego. It is a way cool pic because it is a shadow. Ahhhhhhhhhhh. How sweet!
The next couple of days might be busy. I'm doing my orientation tomorrow morning, and I work Wed & Thurs as an official employee of the hospital I've been working at for a whole year through the registry. Wish me luck! ;)
Just hung out on Sunday with the family and cooked dinner. First time in 2weeks! Yes, I know you are in shock now, ha ha!
My poor boy woke up about 3:00am this morning with croup and said "I...can't...breath!". Had to give him a breathing treatment with steriods and hooked up his humidifer. Bark, bark, bark! Stayed home from school with 101 fever. Will stay home tomorrow, too. :(
