The Magic, The Nurse, and Crash Landings

I love Grey's Anatomy. Even when it's over, I sat there, face tear-stained & wet, eyes puffy. Just breathing. I love the show - it takes me for a ride every week, and I look forward, always to the next installment. I have to wonder, with the intensity of this 3-parter, what the hell Shonda has in store for us for sweeps in March!

P.S.: Loved Bomb-Tech guy... loved him so much in his whopping 2 episode appearance. It gave me great joy to see him back, if just for a fleeting death moment! <3

I miss my best. Would love to settle in and tell him about the things in my world. He always has such great perspective. Protective, I feel safe when he's around. If he were here, I'd tell him about work, about my thoughts... I'd be interested in his take. He reads into me and feels me - he gives insight. To the things inside me that I just can't seem to put a finger on. I suppose someday I'll find another one, but I wonder if that magic exists elsewhere. Definitely "the one you can't live without." But I hope in this world, there's more than one I can't live without. I miss the magic.

Got my license on Wednesday! Drove to Columbia - yay me! Now if ony I can end the Nurse Tech gig, and start doing the real thing. I feel so out of practice. Would love a bigger paycheck! And really need new challenges & diversions. After all the busyness of the last several years, this sudden change of pace is akin to a free fall with a crash landing!

Old Soul

You Are an Old Soul

You are an experienced soul who appreciates tradition. Mellow and wise, you like to be with others but also to be alone. Down to earth, you are sensible and impatient. A creature of habit, it takes you a while to warm up to new people. You hate injustice, and you're very protective of family and friends A bit demanding, you expect proper behavior from others. Extremely independent you don't mind living or being alone. But when you find love, you tend to want marriage right away. Souls you are most compatible with: Warrior Soul and Visionary Soul

What Kind of Soul Are You?

I've been called an "Old Soul" on several occasions, so this doesn't surprise me. Most of it is pretty head on.. Some of it, though is crazytalk - like the wanting marriage as soon as you find love, because that's definitely not me

Toast, NCLEX, & Nerves

It's starting to hit me. Feeling a little bit nervous. Slightly inadequate. Keep telling myself I'll be ok, and logically, I know I will. But little anxiety is normal. Glad I'm not still throwing up. Yesterday, I finally ate again, around 11:30 am. 2 pieces of cinnamon toast, and sips of Gatorade (Which I'd been sipping on since Sunday).

I was so sore yesterday - every inch of my body hurt. A hot shower, & 800 mg of Motrin provided a good bit of relief. Tonight, felt still a little yucchy, but hungry - since the toast went down & stayed down earlier, went for that again. It's been about and hour, & it's stayed down, but with the anxious nerves going, it doesn't feel so hot.

PSA

Don't eat eggs past their expiration date.
Sometimes they'll be fine, and sometimes
they'll makeyou throw up in a Barnes & Noble shopping bag.

Definitely feeling vomiticious today.

Two Theory

Few months ago, I said something about things happening in 2's rather than 3's - for my world. Well I still agree. This past week, I've heard from two of my favorite people from my past... neither of which I'd heard from in years. Good stuff. I can't help but wonder what's up with it, though. Is something shifting in this world? Am I sending out vibes that are making people think of me? If so, I hope it's in a good way.

NCLEX soon. Nervous. Cramming.

Welcome February

It snowed today! It was great!! Got about 2" or so. Naturally, I had to go out and play in it! Here is a pic of the bistro set out in the woods; I thought it turned out pretty neat. I actually took video, too, but not sure how to do the cell phone formats into regular ones.
