    I can watch It's a Wonderful Life every couple of years. I do like to watch Christmas in Connecticut, with Barbara Stanwyck, and another Christmas movie she is in with Fred MacMurray, but can't recall...

    Yeah, I'll confess to a certain amount of Grinch-ness in me, and I'm right up there with most everything you mentioned. I sigh with exasperation and roll my eyes, though not always out loud. But...

    I've got a little acer laptop. I have no clue how to screenshot anything. It's a little pic and I don't see how it would need cropping, and even if it did, that's another blank space in my so-called...

    To Specialize or Not to Specialize?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to HMendee's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I guess it's different nowadays, but instead of searching out a certain specialty, I decided to go to the biggest, 'scariest' hospital I knew, and apply there. (MGH/Boston). They chose the floor they...

    Does drinking more water make you thirstier?

    No Stars In My Eyes posted a topic in General Nursing

    Sometimes I go through the suggestion to drink more water. Tried it plain, with lemon, with cucumber slices, etc. I LOVE ice water, but there are times when drinking just water makes me feel thirstier...
