I signed up for this???

Notice, there has been no post for over a week! Between work and school, I can't quite catch myself coming and going.

This past week was my first work/school/clinical week. My week went as this:

• Monday: class from 10:00 am-12:45 pm, went home to try and take nap (ha-right!) work from 6:30 pm-7:30 am (Tuesday morning)
• Tuesday: slept most of day, up to study, TRIED to sleep at night, not very well due to sleeping most of day
• Wednesday: class from 10:00 am-12:45 pm, up to hospital to pick up patient assignment for clinical next day, worked on clinical paper work until 2:30 am (Thursday)
• Thursday: up at 5:15 am to finish paper work that included 14 drug cards clinicals from 6:45 am-4:15 pm, went home, fell asleep in tub, ate some dinner (between naps) out like a light sometime around 7:30 pm
• Friday: woke up at 9:40 am, class from 10:00 am-12:45 pm, ate lunch with Sean, home around 2:00 pm slept until 5:15 pm and then went to work

What the hell was I thinking! I know, it will be May before I know it and I will once again look back and think how did I do this, just like I did after LPN school.

I have learned that my clinical instructor is a moron. She wore a lab coat that had some sort of coffee/pop stain on it and it was wrinkled. The nurses at the hospital even commented on her coat! Not good. She pretty much half ass graded our paperwork. I have learned that you can add things after she looks at your paper and next week I will NOT be missing out on sleep.

At our "post conference" at the end of the day Thursday, I said "Friday is pajama day". Several people laughed and said "yeah right". My friend Abby said she would wear hers. We were the only ones, but hey, we were comfortable.

The "moron" said she would like to be there to see "the look on Gerry's face". I'm not quite sure what she thought I was talking about regarding pajamas. Given that she thinks it's ok to wear knee highs with a skirt, I don't think I want to know. Abby's were a pair of Old Navy plaid pants with an Old Navy shirt. Mine were a pair of AC/DC pants and an orange shirt. I sit in the back and it wasn't like we wore night gowns or something...maybe next week.
