I know this has happened to everyone else, it's happened to me multiple times. Someone sends you a YouTube link, and then you get SUCKED into the YouTube cycle for HOURS! It happened to me today.
The good thing? I started watching clips from The Soup. And they made me laugh so hard!
( Like this one ... )

I’ve been a doctor for quite some time, and have never experienced anything like that before. You’d think that I would have been able to just jump in and start working on patching people up, but I was a bit overwhelmed at first. There were so many people that needed attention, I just didn’t know where to start. Everything’s okay now, though, but it was just crazy. Once I got my head on straight and found one person that I could help, everything came back to me and I was able to get it all taken care of. I don’t like feeling like that, though. It wasn’t exactly pleasant.

I feel like such a moron ... it's been almost an entire month, and I haven't said anything about it yet. To anyone. I think ... maybe I was just trying to make sure it was going to stick, and that he wasn't going to come to his senses and run screaming ...
Anyway.
I'm engaged. Harry asked me to marry him, and I said yes (obviously). And I'm so fucking happy.

I feel like it must be said, how much I love Michael Buble. Random, yes. But truth. I was being lazy this morning, and put my iPod headphones in while I laid in bed for awhile, and just ... guh. Love. His version of 'Save The Last Dance For Me'? BEAUTIFUL. Not as good as the original, of course. The original is by far the best version of that song. But I have about three different versions on my iPod, haha.
ANYWHO. That's really all I have right now. Random and boring, yes. But meh. Not like I'm the only person to make an insanely random entry in these things, right? Right.

I love being back at work. I seriously do. I have never loved my job as much as I do right now. And I came across this News Article today ... I totally disagree with it. My job, to me, has not become "burdensome". Whatever.
I'm tired, though, after having worked the night shift last night, so I think I'm going to go take a nap, and sleep for probably a good portion of the day. Thank god I'm off today!

I’ve been really negative lately. And I know that it was expected, and it wasn’t that big of a surprise, but I’m going to try and check the negativity, and be more positive about things. My life’s falling back into place again, and that makes me really happy.
I’m totally done with not working. How awesome is that? I was finally cleared to go back to work, which is just fantastic. Because … seriously. This whole sitting around my cabin and doing absolutely nothing all the time? It was just driving me insane. I have to do something to feel useful at all, and just sitting around and doing nothing was driving me nuts. I probably drove Jackie crazy too, being in our cabin all the time, always there. Bah.
And, I have a great boyfriend that I’m absolutely, head-over-heels in love with. So there’s a lot to be positive about. I’m definitely going to work on that, especially the part where I need to actually let myself be happy, instead of trying to find things to be unhappy about. Here’s hoping, right?

Holy shit. I watched 30 Days of Night last night, and just about peed my pants. That movie scared the shit out of me! Interesting take on vampires, I'll tell you that much. But damn!! I watched the last half with the light on, through my fingers. And then I slept with my light on, because I was terrified that those scary fucking vampires were going to come attack me. Sheesh!!
Though, I will say that Josh Hartnett was fucking HOT in that movie!

[02 09 08] |
I'm back! Finally. The doctors felt that I was okay to walk on my own, mostly because I worked my ASS off in physical therapy. I have to walk with a cane, and I have this annoying scooter thing for when it gets too difficult to walk, but I'm too stubborn to use that thing. It makes me feel like I'm 82 instead of 30. That reminds me, my birthday is in two weeks. UGH. Getting older. Wahoo.
But - yes! Long story short ... I'm back! Home, if you will.
Visitors are welcome.
EDIT: Well ... I was feeling better about being back. And now, I just want to leave again.

Physical therapy sucks. Like, seriously. It really does. I’m exhausted all the time, and my knee hurts. BUT – the good news? I’ll be able to walk again. I wouldn’t admit it before, but I was really worried that I wouldn’t be able to walk again.
More good news? I should be able to join you guys back on the ship shortly! Not sure if any of you really missed me, but if you did … you won’t have to wait much longer until you see my pretty face again.

| 048 // UGH. |
[07 08 08] |
Things are still very slow moving with me here. I’m so sick of this hospital room, it’s not even funny. My knee is finally starting to feel a little bit better, but not much. Since the bullet shattered my kneecap, I had to have a fake knee put in. The doctors were hopeful that I wouldn’t need that, but unfortunately … I did. So, that’s fun. I’m only thirty years old, and I had a fucking knee replacement. Ugh. Way to make me feel even older.
I’m so bored here, guys. Someone keep me entertained?

[01 08 08] |
Jesus Christ, being stuck in the hospital is the most boring experience of my life. I still can't walk so I can't go anywhere, I'm confined to my fucking bed. 24 hours a day. I would kill someone to get the fuck out of my bed. For ten minutes!
And hospital food really does suck. I thought all my patients were all just being pains in the ass. No, it really does suck.
Surgery on my knee went well ... so I guess that's a good thing? Now I just have to let it heal and then learn how to walk all over again like I'm two fucking years old.
I'm cranky, ignore me.

Incase any of you people were wondering, I'm alive. Being shot in the knee absolutely sucks. I won't be returning to work anytime soon ... I'm stuck in the hospital. You know how they say that doctors make the worst patients? It's absolutely true.
That's all I can say right now, I'm in too much pain to be able to type for long periods of time. Just letting you all know ... I'm alive. Barely.

[10 07 08] |
Here's what I don't understand. It's totally okay for a female to admit having a 'girlcrush' on certain women. I'll admit, I have had a girlcrush on a woman or two.
But, why is it that, even though it's CLEARLY obvious, men will never ever admit to having a mancrush on someone?
Does anyone have any legitimate insight into this? Other than the common line that men are just retarded.

I never claimed to be the most graceful person in the world. I totally biffed today, fell down and skinned my knee. I haven't had a skinned knee since I was like twelve years old ... and now I remember why I avoided them for so long. They fucking hurt! And it wasn't even like someone else had caused my tripping and falling ... nope. I just did it all on my own. I'm sure some of you had to have seen me. It was right on the top deck, when there were tons of people around. I'm just incredibly smooth that way, I guess.
And now my knee is killing me. Motherfucker.

[25 05 08] |
Okay, so I heard amazing things about Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. I decided ... why the hell not? I have nothing better to do with my free time, now that I quit the program to specialize in diagnostics. Sooo, I got the first book. And, fuck. I'm completely addicted. I just spent five hours reading that damn book, I can't put the fucking thing down. It's been a really, really long time since I've found a book that hooks me in like that, leaves me wanting more! I'm so excited that there are three books in this series, and a fourth to come soon!
And a movie coming out in December, that's exciting! I hope they don't ruin the movie like they did with the Harry Potter series. That made me sad, I won't lie.
Yes, I am a bookworm. That makes me incredibly nerdy and unattractive, I'm aware. Haha.

[16 05 08] |
I didn't think it exactly possible, with all the amazing places we visit daily on this cruise ship, but ... I'm actually becoming bored. Is that even possible? Does it even make sense? Maybe I'm just finally going insane, I don't know. But still. There's got to be something wrong with me.
But I kind of miss my cosey little apartment in Chicago, and I miss my regular patients back home. What the fuck. I guess the next time we pull in port somewhere, I'll have to take some time off the ship, see some sights. Something.

[29 04 08] |
I gave up the idea to specialize in something. I just don't have the motivation behind it anymore, and things have just gotten away from me lately. My head's all over the place.
I'm extremely excited that I didn't get sick along with the rest of you, but sheesh. Working in that Infirmary and taking care of all of you sick people? That really took one hell of a toll on me. I'm exhausted, I can't even tell you the last time I got a good night's sleep. BUT, I plan on it tonight. I'll probably be heading to bed very soon. I just need to give myself some time to settle down. I think I'll read for a little bit.

I still have a headache. It's kind of constant, always a dull roar in the back of my head. Sometimes it's not too bad, and I can ignore it. But other times it's bad enough to make me want to crawl in bed and stay there for hours. I don't know, we'll see what happens in the next few days. If it doesn't go away soon, I might do something about it. We'll have to see. I may be a doctor, but I hate going to the doctor. Does that make sense?
Anyway. That's about all I've got right now. Boring, I know. But that's life.
