My second night shift came and went without incident. It was pretty much a dream 12 hours. I staggered my way to the parking garage and arrived home just before 8 am to pass the car off to my better half (as in, the half that doesn’t crash the car). Oh, did I not mention my little accident? Twitter followers may have read the news, but for those who aren’t in the loop, I suck at driving. Don’t worry, I’m being slightly dramatic (I’m fine). The passenger side door, on the other hand, wasn’t so… Read more >

That would be the night shift. Oy. Why do they all go crazy when the sun sets? Why?!? That’s my attempt at taking a picture of the full moon. Mighty fine camera skills right thurr. As ridiculous as last night was (and trust me, it was plenty ridiculous), I made it home in one piece to curl up on the couch with a new Gossip Girl episode (finally!). And whatdoyouknow, this post seems to be making semi-sense, too (thus far…). Compared to Amy Winehouse, I have my sh!t together. Yesterday started the same as any… Read more >

This weather is truly fantastic, I’m so glad I don’t work again for a few days. Thursday was a pretty exciting work day thanks to my patient with blood glucose levels vacillating between 480 and 37. The twelve hours flew by so quickly I hardly found time to eat everything I packed. Kinda in love with these organic dried mangos. I used to snack on them all the time, but then I forgot about them. My sweet tooth is very much into dried fruit, and even though the mango looks like raw cattle hide,… Read more >

I worked Monday and Tuesday. This means that I’m now playing catch up in life and on the blog. Being out of town this weekend meant that my pre-work food prep was minimal. However, Kyle and I stopped on the way home from San Clemente for a huge grocery shopping trip, so it wasn’t a complete scavenger hunt. For breakfast I mixed up my normal oat routine by adding in wheat bran. Also in the mix was a chopped up baby yellow delicious apple, cinnamon, stevia, and raisins. The wheat bran didn’t change much in… Read more >

If I told you I’ve been blasting the new Britney Spears song on repeat for most of the day? You probably should. It’s not exactly brilliant in the lyrics department. It’s catchy, but overly repetitive. At least it inspired me to make a new running mix…which inspired me to go on a run…which made me feel like a million bucks for the entire day. Chain reaction a la B. Spears. This morning started with a late wake up. Unlike yesterday’s garbage truck fiasco, this was the perfect way to enjoy my morning off. Then I… Read more >
