What was I thinking....

Finally, my day is complete!! I ended up being stuck there until 5pm (instead of 4:30). Ugh!

I was just a little pissed off about it. See, I had no patients in the afternoon, until about 3pm. There was one patient, then walked a second (with a few different areas needing x-rays), so I went ahead and started the procedures. While waiting for the first patient's films to come out, another patient walks it. This one has quite a few pictures to be had. In walks another patient. Finish 2nd guy and look at the clock. It's already 3:40, and I still have 3 patients to do. So I decide to lock my door (which I can because I am boss and because I knew I wouldn't be finished by 4:30 if I didn't lock it). Go and do my patient that has a few areas to be looked at. La-la-la.

I finish with that patient and go to the front (where the desk is). Turns out some of my patients in the waiting room thought they should let more people in. So now I have a total of 5 patients to do and it's almost 4. An average person, btw, takes about 10 minutes (at least). So I was not too pleased. Especially seeing how I'd locked the door and yet the waiting people thought they should let more people in. GRR!! Oh well it only took me until 5pm to get out there. But still, I couldn't believe it. I was so dumbfounded. Luckily I got so annoyed at about 4:15 or so, I went and posted a sign on the door that I was no longer accepting reqs (which I should have done at 3:40). They were all nice people, but I was sure pissed off).

That's pretty much how my days have been going. Actually, today being my first day working on my own, I managed to do more patients in the morning than I did all day on Wednesday. Go figure! Usually I can fit in, about 14 patients in the morning, and that's pretty much working straight from 9am through until around noon (or a little after). It's going to be strange working alone though. Not looking forward to the days when I have to work alone all day, not just the afternoon. It'll be crazy but oh well.

Needless to say, I'm exhausted! But it doesn't end there. Me, being the oh-so-intelligent-girl, decided to accept a shift at the hospital this weekend. *slap* what was I thinking?!? I'm so tired right now, I could probably go to bed and it's only almost 8pm. Sheesh. Actually I was asked to do both Saturday and Sunday but I declined both and only took Saturday. Except it's that awful 7:30 shift. Why, I always get that shift is beyond me.

Plus I might even have to work a double on Tuesday. Yet again my stupidity is rearing it's head. I was phoned and asked to do Tuesday evening (at the hospital), but obviously I couldn't get there until around 5:30, so I don't know if she'll accept that, or just find someone else. Deep down, I just hope she finds someone else, but the money would be nice, with christmas coming up and all my association dues due (damn them, those money hungry people!). Of course the woman in charge of shifts at the hospital wasn't there today, and won't be back until Monday, so I won't really know until then. I never got anything from there and then bam! I get a job and they can't stop phoning me. Last weekend I was called and then I was called twice this week (for 3 shifts). That's 4 shifts in one week, that have been offered to me. That's more than I was ever called for in one month. Seesh! The irony of it all.

Then to top it all off, my brother phoned me and asked me if I wanted to go and watch a screening of 'the incredibles' tonight. Why is it, that they only have screenings when I have to be up before 7am. Seesh. So unforunately, I don't think I can take any of my friends to a screening of it (provided they haven't seen it yet). I just can't believe the luck of it all. I seriously have no luck. Although, my brother seems to think I should be able to go and see it and still get up for my 7:30 shift, and yes the boy is that daft. Siblings, what can you do.

But yay! Bridget Jones' Diary: The Edge of Reason came out today. I'm mad it's not at my brother's theater though! Grr! But I think I might have some movie passes somewhere (I'm sure I do, I must). I really want to see it though. I loved the book, although this sounds entirely different from the book (the movie that is). See there was no Daniel Cleaver in Thailand while Bridget was there, so what the cheese is going on? Reviews in certain areas aren't good either, but I trust that it's still good (I hope *fingers crossed*) If I didn't work tomorrow I'd probably have found someone and dragged them with me, but there is always tomorrow night or Sunday. Unless I just wait until I can drag my brother to SilverCity where he can get me in for free (but he'll have to go with me, lol, the highlight of his day I'm sure). Oh well, seems I'll just have to wait and see it.

Well that's about all. I'm sure I had something interesting to say but I'm so tired that I can't think of it. So catch y'all later. Ciao!
