At work again! I believe it's my fourth (or fifth) day in a row! It's insane...my body is super confused on when it should be allowed to sleep and when it should be awake. I get home in the morning and can never fall asleep right away, no matter how bad I wish that I could.
The medication I have been taking for my migraines has finally made my blood pressure low. I told Cory I was feeling kind of funny earlier today, but I didn't really guess that the medication would be why because I've been tolerating it very well so far. I'm skipping my next dose so I don't bottom out and fall to the floor while I'm at work.
I feel like I should be writing some sort of story, but I can't think of what to write. I haven't written an actual story in so long it's crazy! It used to be one of my favorite things to do and now I can't think of anything to write about. I'm honestly sick of the fairytales I come up with in my head, but it's always nice to daydream about them. It gives me something fun to do when I'm bored.
I really should finish reading The Road. I feel like I started it too long ago. In high school, I would have finished a book that size in a couple days. I'm only about 1/4th the way through the entire book and I can't seem to find the urge I once had to read.
Cory came to visit me at midnight :)
He brought me raspberry ice cream, gushers, and a drunk guy.
haha...okay, so he didn't mean to bring in the drunk guy, but still.
I mixed the raspberry ice cream with sprite in a cup (because I'm weird like that) and ate a couple packs of gushers. I'm actually eating a pack of them as I type. They're a lot more sugary than I remember. Then again, the last time I had them I was a kid.
So, about the drunk guy. Cory really did walk in with him. He came up to the desk and I thought he was going to check into the ER for some kind of psychiatric problem, but no, he just wanted to use the phone. So, I put the phone on the counter and let him try to dial a number, but it turned out that the phone was broken, and another patient walked in. So, I asked him to take a seat while I went to figure out what was wrong, checked the patient in (because patients hold priority, I'm sorry, but they do) and then told the charge nurse what was happening. She let him use a phone that was working to call a cab he needed and then he came to wait out in the waiting room. Eventually, he worked his way out to the main doors where there are wheelchairs and he tried, after a few minutes, taking a wheelchair out the parking lot. I called him out and tried to get him to stop. He wasn't going to listen to me. Luckily the charge nurse and the other EMT came out to handle the situation as well. But still, what an event!
We ended up having to call security just so they could keep an eye on him.
Cory always brings the weirdest things in with him. I mean seriously, every time he's come to visit me, we get a patient with something legitimately wrong with them, or just some random person who has no purpose being anywhere near an ER.
At least something happened tonight!
Tomorrow, well technically today, is Dad's birthday. He's turning 44. I'll be sleeping for some time in the morning, but we're having a dinner for him at 5. One of Alex's friends are coming. I guess she's leaving for basic training Monday and that's the last chance Alex will get to see her? I don't know, I find the whole situation strange, especially because Cory won't be coming. But whatever! It's Dad's birthday, so I'm not allowed to cause problems about it. For reasons semi-unknown, it worked out like that.
Let's see what else is happening!
My camping trip with the Powell family is in a couple weeks and I am extremely excited!! Cory said Yuba Lake is pretty cool, but he's only seen it from a drive, he's never actually camped there. I guess they are trying to rent jet skiis, but aren't sure on the matter. I hope they do at least get one, because I've never really ridden on one. The thought of being able to ride one is both exciting and terrifying. I've heard some pretty gruesome stories about jet skiis and injuries received from them. Stories that I probably never wanted to hear. Ouch...yeah, that's all I'm going to say about that.
Zeke is doing a lot better as far as obedience goes! He now sits almost all the time when commanded and he's learned to stay! I'm such a proud momma :) He's such a cute puppy, and he's getting so big! The only issue we're really having with him now is play biting and pooping out on the balcony. Other than that, he's been an awesome dog!! I absolutely adore him!
A few days ago, Cory and I took the twins out on an interesting drive. The rules were that they had to tell us whether to go straight or turn at each stoplight. We ended up in Lehi (leh-hee as Siri would pronounce it) and stopped at their senior center that had a museum next to it. There was a statue of Porter Rockwell there and we learned about him, which was pretty cool! Then we hopped back in the car and went on a search for a museum at BYU that James and Jordan kept calling the "bean" museum. We ended up unsuccessful in trying to find the exact museum they wanted, but we did find their art museum. Just as we were walking to its doors, they closed. But we found some cool artwork ducks that looked like they were from minecraft outside. They were pretty large in size! We had fun eating snacks in the car and making vine videos. I feel like Cory and I should take them out more often, because we really did have a lot of fun!
Some Random Pictures From Life
Also, something I forgot to blog about was the fact that Cory and I made the long drive around Utah lake about a week ago starting around midnight. We honestly didn't know how long the drive would be, but we soon figured out that it's over 100 miles to get around the entire lake. It took us nearly 3 hours to get home. By the time we figured out that it would be a longer drive than we thought, we're were already about 53 miles in. Which sucked because we were kind of stuck as far as time whether we turned around or kept going, so we kept going. We sped, going about 90 mph in my car to get home a little faster, but then we hit some random town where there were cops present, so we had to slow down. Let me tell you that driving out there at night is creepy. I don't think I'll ever be the one driving at night in somewhere like Cedar Valley. Anyway, we went home and straight to bed! It was an exhausting night!
