Oh hell. Nothing got done for work this weekend. Sorry, kids.

Natter 70: Hookers and Blow
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Here it is: [link]
First time navigating the new interface. It's prettier than before, but the info's also further away.
Hey, is the nurse you like at the ER Helen? There was a nice blonde one (Shannon or something) who was sort of helpful.
There are a bunch by now, but neither of those names ring a bell. I don't have a Helen or a Shannon down in my notes, but I've been very bad at keeping them well recently,
Lots of the nurses we worked with were kind. Many were sort of non-present, which is okay too. Outside of IV stuff and blood draws, we do all of the nursing type care ourselves. Whenever Grace's IV pump alarmed though, on the last night, I would crawl out of bed, hit the call button and bark, "Her infusion is alarming." Pet Peeve of mine. (I think we lost the first IV site in the ER in part because the infusion stopped and it alarmed for an HOUR before anyone came in to either flush it or restart the maintenance fluids).
I did almost flip out on a nurse who suggested we should put a PICC line in Grace to make blood draws easier. WHAT? She has been admitted to the hospital ONCE in 3+ almost 4 years for non-preplanned surgery reasons. This is an amazing record for a kid with a trache who attends public school and has for years. For a little sicky, Grace is amazingly resilient and hardy. But she wanted to put a PICC line? Ridiculous.
Also, I use this [link] to the list of LA quakes directly. Sometimes the new interface confuses me.
ita, I love that grey dress.
That dress is great!
It is so hard watching someone make bad relationship decisions. Not a darn thing I can do about it, just frustrating as hell. It is kinda one of those "fuck me over once, shame on you, do it twice, shame on me" situations. Wish I could just not know what is going on but that isn't an option.
Ah, Suzi. Been on both sides of that one, as y'all well know.
ita !, gorgeous dress. And it's not dark, it's shiny! So there.
So have I mentioned before that Payphone by Maroon 5 puts Sammy to sleep instantly? Because just now he was fussing, crying, rubbing his eyes, and nursing on and off over and over. I finally turned on Payphone and he closed his eyes, started nursing, and is now calm and quiet.
Love that dress.
