Junky..... and to think, you were on my case for taking three ibuprofins ;~D
That is NOT good!
Heh.
With every word out of that nurse's mouth...she proved she was a complete idiot. For one thing, she shouldn't grill someone like that unless she had her facts straight beforehand...I only got one sample and the sample I got was only supposed to last a few days. She was clueless from the very beginning.
Secondly, I don't think she should have dealt with me (or anyone) the way she did, but she especially made an ass of herself because she wasn't just dealing with some poor elderly lady that cowers to her perceived status...I'm a Registered Nurse and I believe that affords me at least some professional courtesy.
I'm still trying to decide what I'm going to do...I may give the doctor a call next week and tell him about his unprofessional nurse.
Yeah, SirKit said that they turned all the lanes on the interstate headed out of Houston to go NORTH!
*sniff* He's learning so quickly! ;o)
See if you can get some "Zicam Nasal Gel" on the way home. It won't 'heal' the cold, but it will certainly lessen the severity of the symptoms. I'd used their nasal spray before, and liked how it worked, except I don't like nasal sprays. Now it's in a gel form that won't run right back down and out of your nose!
Been listening to a Houston radio station through the firewall...hehehe. Gridlock and people running out of gas.
Meanwhile on the hurricane thread...some people think it would be better if it got NOLA again. That way we won't have to rebuild two cities.
Heh heh...
People who think they know it all are very annoying to those of us that do...
;-)
Ha!
Well...I'm back from that clerical test thingie. I think I did OK, but only OK. The spelling part was easy, and the pattern test wasn't too bad, though I didn't quite finish (it was a three minute speed portion), but some of the other stuff...ech. A lot of it was stuff like "It's best to treat an angry customer with _____." And then the answers were stuff like a) sympathy, b) authority, c) concern, and I can't remember what else. And then there were questions dealing with being an emergency call person...what to ask a person first, and another that had four emergency situations (like a fight, a bank robbery, a guy having a heart attack) and asked which you should handle first.
I did the best I could. Should hear back in a couple of weeks. Hopefully I'm already employed by then anyway, but...
Gah....
Get your kinko's stuff done. I'm out of here as soon as possible (maybe within the hour) and I'd like to do Lost, then collapse for a while.
Ungh. I really don't wanna do Kinkos during lunch hour...it'll be crowded. But I'm not sure it'll be better later.
I may actually go after Lost - at four or so, maybe?
It's only two forms.
Oh, yeah, Kinkos is open forever... it'll be at least another forty five minutes before I can leave but whatever.
Oh dear, the latest projection I saw had Rita tracking right over Tyler, TX. Should be down to a TS by then, but still...
But still it's a storm.... I saw that too.
I used to live in Tyler...Matthew was born there. Steve worked for the rose industry.
Hey...the VW show is this weekend...remember the one I went to last year and came home so solidly hooked?
I'm excited! It's not supposed to rain till Sunday...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILBO AND FRODO!!
Everyone bug out because of the hurricane or something?
