Just Trying To Diffuse The Tension

So I went last Saturday to the movies with Stephen and Krysia...it was, to date, the best Harry Potter movie!

And it's killing me that I have to wait until July of next year to see the second part...which is more than likely even more bloody brilliant than the first part...which, to me, seems like an impossibility...but maybe not.

So far, I have gotten a couple of things off my to-do list. Among them, new Scrubs, printing directions to UTEP as well as a UTEP Campus Map.

Further on my to-do list is taking the first practice LSAT test from my study book (something I plan on doing tomorrow), taking the second LSAT practice test and the third as well. I need to keep working on the Logic Games, which can easily kick my behind during the actual test, and I must, MUST, practice my debate writing of sorts.

Alright, that would be the only updates I have...

Although, there is the fact that I went to the movies on my own today. Who'd a thought I could actually do that? What did I see, you ask?

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1...AGAIN!

Twenty-Five Days...

My LSAT is coming upon me fast...

Am I prepared?

Well....

I am at Barnes & Noble talking to friends on-line (gotta love AIM).

I am watching Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban later today.

I am going to the library tomorrow to return books, renew books, and check out more books.

I will be getting a map to UTEP (preparation step one).

I will be buying my new three sets of scrubs.

I will be working....

Sleeping....

Working....

HARRY POTTER NIGHT ON SATURDAY WITH STEVE-O AND KRYSIA!!!

Then I will continue preparing...

Night Shift is When the Stars Come Out...or the Weirdos...

Last night at work...it was interesting...We had two births throughout the night, with three women laboring in the back. Sometime between three and four in the morning, two visitors came through to the Post Partum floor from the Pediatrics hallway...

They headed to Labor and Delivery...

Then after about ten minutes, returned with out of the Junior Security Guards coming with them...two minutes after they headed out, once again, through the Pediatrics hallway, a Senior Guard came up, huffing and puffing and askign the Junior Guard where they went before heading after them. As he walked by, we asked what was going on (because, for our floor, this is strange workin's) and he stated they were drunk.

Alright...now, the L&D Clerk came over to our station to ask who had let them in...apparently, they weren't just drunk, but the lady had blood down the front of her shirt and the guy (who was wearing a hoodie) had blood on his neck...she had been the one to call Security...

I tell you, strange things happen during the night shift...and I was the one who let them in...let's just hope next time I let in someone covered in blood, they aren't armed and psychotic...I should start asking them that before opening the door....

The weird workings of a hospital at night...good thing I don't work the emergency floor.

Also, I got to diaper a one day old five pound baby boy...and dress him afterwards too.

Thank y'all!

PS. In two days, the countdown commences...

Kiss and Snuggle with me?

My title is a direct tribute to my best buddy Jaden.

Life has been going well. I've been going to church and Bible study and working.

Mom's gallbladder was removed and I spent the night at the hospital with her, which I think she appreciated despite her telling me it wasn't necessary.

Fun stuff have happened, such as carving my first pumpkin with Jaden, making my Veggie Chili to enter it into the Chili cook off at church, getting to hang out with friends and just be.

I have one month before I take my LSATs, which are scheduled for December 11th...

I think I just let the cat out of the bag there...

I will explain more on my plans after the 11th of December.

I had so many stories to tell, among them a conversation with my big brother concerning the building of the world's biggest something here in El Paso to attract tourism (he suggested a tunnel a semi could go through that ends right at the border. We then broadcast that the tunnel is used by the narcs to traffic drugs into the states and sell t-shirts that say "NARCOS NEED FRIENDS TOO." As you can imagine, we were laughing big time...mostly because we both knew that people would come to El Paso to see that).

Then there's Jaden stories, but those are too many and little snippets that not much stands out in my head...except when he had the sandbox meltdown because he wanted to play with me and I was eating dinner with Krysia. That was a special moment, Jaden asking to play with Luz.

Well, nothing new...still liking my job, looking forward to Harry Potter Marathon with some friends then later, the Harry Potter movie on November nineteen.

Well, adios and enjoy!
