I sit here with a puppy trying to lick my face as I try to concentrate enough to get my thoughts in line...and I don't think it's going to happen.
I've become very boring in my working and house-wifey days. I don't do much besides go to the hospital and sleep anymore. I mean, I just got back from my second walk with my dog today. I've got a pork roast in the oven and Skillet playing on my ipod. Thrilling.
The new job has begun. I had my last "orientation" day today with computer training. From here on out, the remainder of my transition will be spent on the unit. I've only had a few days so far... I don't think it's quite sinking in for me that the job is REAL. Things are STOCKED for me. People don't COMPLAIN the entire time they're at work. The doctors are NICE. The patients aren't confused. I could have a thousand things go wrong in a shift and be running around like crazy and I don't think it would matter, because all of those things are so GOOD.
In other news, my best friend is moving back to town. I couldn't be any more excited. I miss her being close by SO much. I've become a bit of a slacker friend as of late, but my brain just doesn't seem to be able to keep up right now. I knew things wouldn't be easy, but I'm nervous that I'm slipping into the Darkness a little, that I don't care about much other than my job right now. Which is okay, because I've never done that before.
I just hope everyone understands.
I don't know who reads this at all. But if you happen to be one of those people that feels like I've become alienated, I promise, I'm just a little lagging. I still love each and every one of you.
