1. Between the election and watching Taken 2, my heart rate is sustaining at about 120 beats per minute. And my left eye brow won't stop twitching.
2. I had a really good weekend which included but was not limited to: a very short motorcycle ride, preparing a lesson, seeing my friend's new baby, steak on the BBQ, seeing friends, a good session of Body Pump, a new trail that I actually enjoyed running on, no-bakes, and seeing my fam. It was real good.
3. Tomorrow I'm going to my dermatologist like I do several times a year only to hear over and over again how high risk my skin is for cancer. Every time he examines a new area, he says it again and again. Yep, he's sees every inch of this large mass. I walk out almost crying because I'm so sure I'm going to die at a young age. His tactics have worked, I stopped tanning 3 years ago. Now I'm pasty white, a connoisseur of good fake tanning lotion, and covered in scars from carving out "suspicious" areas of skin.
4. I added another patient to my top 10 list today. This is prestigious. I like a lot of my patients but I only love a few of them. This 91 year old stole my heart today. I laughed all day. This is why I'm a nurse.
5. Speaking of old people. When I'm 91, I will be: covered in large jewelry including massive turquoise rings, my hair will be bright white, I'll have a little grandma belly, my boobs will NOT be droopy thanks to a plastic surgeon at age 50 (and again at 70), I'll be confused enough to be hilarious and oblivious to how sick or old I really am, sassy, a flirt with any male that is in my narrow field of vision, I'll toot whenever I want to and pretend that I didn't notice, a terror behind the wheel in my jazzy car, say inappropriate enough things to make those around me gasp, and I vow to walk as fast as my arthritis filled legs will take me.
