it's been a good day.
tuesday night was absolute fucking insanity at work. every patient in emerg needed an xray, on top of which i had to do portables, in-patient ct's, and... just a bunch of stuff that wouldn't make sense if you weren't familiar with my job. i worked an hour of overtime, then got called back just after i'd gotten home for another 45 minutes or so.
by contrast, last night was more or less a cakewalk. fabulous.
lindsay had a pretty big scare while working monday evening. i'm not sure if i've written about it in here, but linds is pregnant. she/we found out right before our girls' trip to winnipeg last month [she took a test before we went, to make sure drinking would be kosher. it was not.] anyway, without all the gory details, our boss rushed in to ultrasound her, and thus far the baby is fine but the placenta is essentially torn. basically if it re-attaches all is fine, and if it doesn't she'll lose the baby. it's more or less a waiting game. ANYWAY, i wanted to cheer her up, since she's at home "taking it easy" this week. i took her a little gift bag, with a movie, a puzzle, dark chocolate [her favourite], caramel corn, and skittles, and a big bouquet of fresh flowers. it made me feel so great to cheer her up a little, and remind her that i'm here to support her. she left me a sweet wall post on facebook that made me smile.
after my little pop-in at lindsay's i came home and did my taxes. by myself. for the first time ever. i'm pretty impressed with myself. i just hope that i did everything right, and that i don't get audited. also, my cheque ought to be around a grand, so no complaints there.
what the crap am i going to make for dinner?! |
