Wow, so I just spent a Thanksgiving noc shift so I can hopefully have Christmas off, and have been thinking of my "career" to this point in my life. I find myself rereading threads long forgotten and laughing out loud to the point that I have woken up the knee replacement in 128 multiple times. (She is afraid of the dark and wont let me close her freaking door, and I get giggly when tired.!)

I have thought of the look on the old bratty nurses face when on my second day of being on her floor, I placed a blunt needle on the tip of a syringe and walked by her non-chalantly asking "IMs are given with blunts right?" trying to keep a straight face. Or the thought of the post turp/severe uti in 3 point restraints that somehow got out of them to be holding the blood ridden foley like a lollipop with feces all over his body like he was heading into a UFC fight. I remember the lol that had a bm so big she hit me when I flushed "her baby she was in labor with for 18 hours d@amn@t" down the toilet. I do have to say looking back, I am so glad I am a nurse. I am honored to have these and many more memories that I just cant think of right now or I will over-flow my poise pad, and yes I am only 30, but I am a fast learner!

Thank you AN, and all the guests/members for being part of me. I cant wait for many more memories!!!:dance:
