whoa, there I go!

forgive me. I have been a bad blogger. It's my work, and it's going to get worse before it gets better. We're starting this week short handed and are losing one therapist for two weeks starting Wednesday. If my boss doesn't have a nervous break down in the next two weeks, then I promise to have one for her.

A nurse told me a very funny story about a local doctor today. This unnamed doctor went into a very hard of hearing and confused patient's room. The patient was very agitated and kept asking for his deceased wife. The doctor leaned toward the patient and yelled, "SHE DIED!" The patient gulped, looked at the doctor, and asked, "Today?"

Needless to say, please don't send that doctor in if I'm ever confused. I hope to be pleasantly confused like the patient I treated on one of my internships. She kept asking about the cruise ship she thought we were on.

That is bad. Especially if she wasn't even dead.
