Carron,

This is my first week back of class on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, then clinical on Thursdays, Fridays, then work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. Three more weeks of it....then a little bit of a break, then spring break, then only 5 weeks after that.

We've begun talking about selling our *charming* clinical uniforms and what we are going to do with all of our free time when all we have to do is work.........

I won a drawing for a $500 training for taking the NCLEX-RN (boards) in Hays, KS from May 21-25. I will do that after I do five days of board review at the college. I'm only taking this stinking test ONCE.....and I will pass.......PERIOD! Then the party planning will begin.

We went to Topeka last week for Nurse's Day At The Legislature and after taking FULL advantage of the free drinks from 5-7 PM in our hotel lounge, and we wandered our way to the Hooter's across the parking lot where we proceeded to get hammered. Lance called me while we were there and I was apologizing to him for getting smashed. He said, "I truly think you've earned this one. I've kind forgotten how much fun you can be after a few drinks." We chuckled. I haven't done much partying since starting school.

Tell everyone hi....chat with you later.
