And the most important news of my life?

One more day of work and then a week of vacation. 8 days completely off. I cannot wait to turn my pager off and chuck it far far away.

🙂 Life will be sweet, my friends.

Stupid YouTube.

I’ve never gotten tv this year (no bunny ears, no cable, no nothing), so i’m always a bit behind on what everybody else is watching. But after Becka starting posting clips, well then, that made me want to go out and watch all of the clips of SYTYCD as I could. I had forgotten how much I love this show.

And YouTube took them all down today. 🙁 So I haven’t even gotten properly caught up. I’m sure they’ll crop up again soon.

But I did get to see some of last year’s stuff and I had forgotten how much I loved Benji. It’s funny, Becka always goes for the lyrical, interpretation dances, and I’m always impressed with the formal. And I had forgotten how much I LOVE the West Coast Swing. It’s been so long since I danced; I’d look like a clumsy buffoon if I tried now. I miss it. There are so many of my college, early adult years that are tied in memories of dancing.

Work is incredibly dull right now. Incredibly. I’m completely bored. I have 1 patient that I’m covering. One. We get about 1 consult a day, usually someone with pneumonia and the primary team refuses to take our advice so it makes me feel extremely frustrated; I hate wasting my time, and if you had already decided on a treatment plan, then why did you ask for a second opinion??? Grrr. Also, I’m at the VA which blocks most of the sites that I want to visit (like LJ), so it leaves me with a lot of time to do nothing. I’m studying right now, for Step 3 which I’ll be taking sometime in the next six weeks, but that gets very dull as well (I don’t wantto learn any more about pediatric rashes! I’m done with that forever!). So right now, I know basically everything that’s going on in the world, as I have literally read just about every single article in the BBC.

Ewan and Charley, btw, were in Eldoret today. *sniff* I miss the place, well, not so much the stench and the mice, but everything else. The pineapple. I definitely miss the pineapple. They’re leaving Kenya, going into Uganda and I’ll probably lose track of their trip, but it was so awesome to hear and see pictures of the areas that I was at just a year and a half ago.
