So I'm in the ER tonight and I've been sitting here on the intraweb for a good 2 hours because well... Fuck it, I'll say it, WE ARE SLOW!!!!! Have had a bit of everything tonight at a slow and steady pace. From the poor girl that nearly pulled her eye out with a shower curtain rod (don't ask) and sliced through half of her upper right eyelid. Pretty interesting. Luckily she did not hurt her actual eye. Very lucky. To the usual hot tots and the mothers (and fathers) that have no clue. Thank you, job security. And to the panicked family of a 16 year old female who is obviously crying out for help/attention by not eating in 4 days and then hyperventilating and then passing out. Parents of course think she is dying and cannot understand why I am not killing myself to rush her to the ER/OR/life saving room/Dr's Side or whatever it is they are thinking. Anywho, the night goes on and has gotten rather tiring. Aside from the guy that came in yesterday with severe sepsis (wbc was 43k+) that had to get tubed, we have been doing pretty good. One more night, then a night off and then I have a 48 in Alice, Tx where I have been doing some EMS work on the side for some extra spending cash.
School next semester... ugh, should be a blast :D We'll see how it goes.
And then the week after that, hopefully Austin and maybe a day or 2 in Tyler... not sure on the particulars just yet though.
I'll update later.
And yes, Austin and Tyler on the monster. :D
