work has taken 75% of my time and
25% gym getting ready for the wedding
20% memae's bridal shower and bachelorette party
5% family and friends

I'm tired physically and mentally from work
Yes yes I know two patients
2 patients
Why the fck am I complaining?!!!
well when your level 2 trauma patient suddenly turns into a level 1 trauma patient
thats when shit really hits the fans
in the mean while, while I am cleaning out shit
I'm having to stop what I'm doing
Hunt down my preceptor
and ask
how do I set up this transducer
how do I set up the machine
what is a bladder pressure
what are the normals
explain again the intercranial pressure and the mannitol protocol
ahhhhhhh!!!!
aside from that the surgical residents are killing me
there's like 5 of them barking orders at me
not barking
the 5th year is commanding
the 2nd year is askin and waiting for me to "concur"
so he won't get chewed out by the attending during rounds which is like the worst cause the residents are getting cussed at and scolded like lil children in front of all the nurses and whoever seems to be around even family members
maybe if they looked like dr. mcdreamy and dr. mcsteamy
there wouldn't be any problems
"I would be like yes dr. mcrdreamy whatever you want
Versed at 8 and morphine at 8? Okay I'm on top of that"

in real life its like
"Are you sure you want that drip at 8? Wait let me check with my preceptor!"
I think they think they can take advantage of me cause I'm new but I always remind them
I taught them everything their first year and they shouldn't get mad when I second question them because thats all I did to them their first year
All in all its good seeing my "bambis" grow
yes yes Scrubs
Okay time to review
reading blood gases
I mean really in nursing school it was like thirty mins of explaining this shit
Who knew it was between life and death in the TSICU
this is the last time till April
I've decided to give up blogging for Lent
Good nite
