SHARKANO! I love it. Sharks no.
amy, basically make a new gmail. And give it whatever name you want. and make a google+ from that, and don't give them your actual gmail.
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

I thought I grabbed a White Orchard tea bag and what I steeped turns out to be Earl Grey. What strange alchemy is this?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Completely unrelated, I stumbled across this picture and was surprised to realse I recognised the baby without use of the URL at all.
The IV pump alert has a very distinctive beep. It allows you to silence it, but for what can be no more than a minute each time, and I feel both silencing it and not silencing it are equalling batshit-insanemaking. Because of cables, I have to get up and lean over to hit the cozily placed silence button, putting down my sketch or tablet or whatever I've gotten into for the last 40 seconds.
Stabinate. Also, worsen headache.
I think the panopticon should be mandatory in all nursing degrees. Come on! There's got to be room for these things. And I can't believe I haven't had the panoALREADY ALARM? REALLY? FUCK YOUpticon conversation with more nurses. Today might be the first time. But I do think I can learn interesting things about different nurse's opinions on monitoring patients (and the comparison of a ward to prisonSO SOON? BITE ME, BEEPER or schools is enlightening too).

Oh ita, I can't believe what you deal with. Hang in there. We're here for entertainment, at least.
People, teaching 6 hours a day is wearing me OUT.It is seriously the most exhausting thing ever. I will be hiding under my bed come mid-August when that alarm goes off again.

Well, the docs came in and turned the pump off, so I hope no data was lost as the nurse before them was worried about. Out of my hands, anyway. A few more hours of meds, overnight observation (woo...pfft) and then home in the morning. It's not that great, to be honest. I've been dizzy for two days, and sometimes the pain wasn't too bad, but...just sitting here right now I can feel it creeping back.
Some of the IO9 posters just published an anthology. Called (amusingly as fuck to me) We Had Stars Once (referring to the now-deemed-cliquey mechanism of giving posting rights). I have no idea about the quality of the work, but at least the Kindle version is cheap: [link]

This I can believe.
ita, may things take a sudden turn toward the competent.
So do I want to watch sharks to get me off the trial coverage?

This week I've only taught for 4 hours a day and AM TIRED.
I was driving on Sunset and some dude was lane splitting on a largish white motorcycle while traffic was moving somewhat okay. He had on a tank top and shorts and flip flops (WTF?!?!) and his vanity motorcycle license plate (also I almost never see vanity plates on motorcycles) said "ERDOKTOR"
What a tool.

Also, it's too late, but on most of the IV pumps, if you push once you get a minute. If you push twice, I think, you get 3 minutes.
If you page the nurse and ask to handle it, it may or may not help.
The only advantage to an ICU is that the nurses pay more attention.
I wish I didn't have this info.
