Big holiday. Big cooking. Big food. Big lovin’. Big tired.
No video. No way. No guilt.
Later.

It’s that time of year again, when all the good boys and girls lie awake wishing and waiting and wondering: what will The Eyeglass Fairy leave on my kitchen counter today?
What? Oh. Maybe that’s just us.
One of my favorite things about small-town rural life is that you can go to the store, come back, and find strange unmarked gifts in your house. This is what happens when you live someplace where no one locks their doors. I freakin’ love it.
It didn’t take us long to figure out where they came from. The man has a killer collection, and upstate NY is really no place for a man to be wearing big vintage sunglasses…or is it…

I made this ages ago during a dry spell at work, then didn’t post it because I got worried after a class I took on labor nursing and legal stuff. But I must press on. I have to post something. The power of NaVlaPoMo compels me.
Labor & Delivery is a funny unit-everything comes in waves. Follows distinct patterns. We’ll have a week or two that are utterly unmanageable with patients set-up in spare conference rooms and on stretchers in the hallway (particularly in September and October…those New Year’s babies), and then : poof! Nothing. The calm before the next storm. This was shot during one of those poof!Nothing shifts.
12 hours is a very long time to have nothing to do. Toward the end, you start getting loopy and desperate.

I do this when I’m home alone, sometimes.
Okay, maybe more than just “sometimes”.

Sorry. Still bitching. This too, shall pass.
Ever want to know what a nurse’s schedule is like? No? Well, too bad.
