Im at the halfway mark!

So I just got off work and can now get a lil' extra sleep today because I don't have to go back in until 9:30 tonight. Yeeaaaah!!! It always feels so good making it to Monday. It means more sleep and that I'm now on the downhill slope of my work week.  In case some of you reading this didn't already know, I work the 7 on /7 off schedule on nights. Which means I work 80 hours in one week. It can make for a long week sometimes. I love it though, it works well for me right now.

Last night was an interesting night. Worked in NeuroTrama and had a bad pt come in. Pt had done some pretty horrible things to himself. I got to see the nice cleaned up version though. David Frana, a fellow RT and one of my classmates from school, was in ER and got to see the the raw perspective.  The pt came in because he had given himself a self inflicted lac to his throat from ear to ear. David was in awe of the damage and let me know what to expect when he headed my way.

It always amazes me what humans can do to others.... but mostly to themselves. How can people convince themselves that this life is so horrible that leaving this world on gruesomely bloody circumstances could be better?My take on it is that life is always what you make it and how you perceive your place in this world. I don't know... anyway, I think I'm gonna throw in some laundry and then hit the hay.    Night ya'll!!!
