Madness...


There's a reason in mine. Call it OCD, being organized, or whatever. I do it mainly because it makes it easier for me to remember things and do what I still need to do. If one messes it up, I get lost, out of track and pissed me off that I have to redo things. Backtracking, doing more work.
Just thinking about it right now is giving me a headache. I'll just... go

I know it's not a reason but...


I want to cry...
- Just because I'm tired....
- Because I'm sleepy...
- Burnt out from work and doesn't feel like coming back to all those craziness
- I'm also hungry but I'm ignoring that because I'm more sleepy
- Overwhelmed that I didn't know shit with the issue that happened during my shift
The freaking charge before my shift lgave me 3 restless patients, 1 easily agitated one and the after care/issue of one
- Not properly debrief and feeling lost; it's a rare occurrence to happen in my unit so none us know what to do
- I'm sorry to my charge last night that I threw her under the bus
- I'm sleepy (yes I just have to repeat that)
- I'm sleepy
- And every time I get sleepy almost drifting to lala land some shit goes on
   - some fucking random person calling me
   - something smells like poop coming from the backyard
   - Insurance issues regarding the car accident, issues that haven't been communicated properly

And now after that rant, I think I can try to destress now. Hopefully no more interruptions... or I'll turn off phone.
Kthxbye

Book peeves


So again from the previous post about Kindle Unlimited and Nook. I don't know how the Kindle works but I'm guessing at least the author gets something from their books being borrowed, but buying it outright ebook or paperback I guess they get more from it (???), maybe.
Anyway one of the few things I like about the ebook borrowing from Kindle is connected to my pet peeve regarding how the story is written.
For those who do read, you know that there are different types or something like that on how the author write the story. I'm not really a fan of the his or her view type where the character narrates the whole chapter. It kinda annoys me at times so knowing that the book is written that way I don't waste money and just return/don't read the book at all.
Sometimes (or maybe most of the times) I don't really like simpering heroines... they don't sound much of a heroines to me but useless characters xD! I don't mind damsels in distress but not weak and stupid. X.x that after reading 1 or 2 chapters, if ever I do have the paperback I would return it. Thankfully some ebooks offer the first chapters to read.
Ah and because my thought are disorganized atm I'll jump to the fact that because of the books I'm ruined to any man hahaha!!!
Yes I know they're just books but it makes me sad that they're not real and if ever there are men like them... zomgah where are they hiding?
With that I go start reading again xD

Pocketbook addict


I really started young, maybe around 9 or 10 years old. I remember a bit that I started with Sweet Valley Kids, then High, then Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, R.L Stine's books (which for a kid is effin' creeptastic) and from there romance novels (which is bad considering I was a teen hahaha!!!)
I never get tired of reading them, maybe one story is the same from another author but still engaging for me the same.
I've read thousands already, seriously my Nook alone mostly have a thousand already and that doesn't include the ones I've bought and borrowed through the years.
One of the few regrets I have is that when I was still in high school I've read this book probably published during the 90's by Diamond Publishing ( os something like that). It's a series, much like Sweet Valley about school life of girls in a dormitory. My school library had 2 or 3 of the books but sadly not all of them. I want to finish the series but again it was years ago, I don't remember the title just the premise of the series, I tried googling the company (sadly again...) it was already closed and not a lot of information is available through it. Sadly, sadly, sadly not a super detective like Drew and the Hardy bros.
Anywho, I have most probably abused Nook in a way that I have been spending too much per month. The stupid me didn't acknowledge that it's competitor Amazon Kindle had introduced their unlimited books for 10 buckaroo per month... ugh that's waaaaaay less than what I spend.
I'll talk about support and pet peeves maybe in my next post if I remember but for now I'm feeling happy... elated... and much more xD that I could afford my addiction to books. Hey :P at least it's not drugs or some other vice xD

On getting sick


I don't get sick often, not rare but uncommon. The most would be a cough then would go away in a few days, 3 at most. Unfortunately for me, this time around my defense was down.
At first it started with my sister coughing around, then my mom but after that has passed I got scotch free. A few weeks later I started to get the cough but before it gets worse I took prevention like drinking more Vitamin C and stuff. During this time I'm still working as it's not bad. But after I went home after a shift my body just crashed. I'm not having any fever because I've been drinking Tylenol for body aches but I'm basically coughing weirdly (whistling cough), having shortness of breath, and literally puking phlegm  (yes it is gross).
Sadly getting an appointment with my primary would take weeks so I went to a clinic.
I tried not to laugh my ass off because I was coughing up a storm. Hacking whistling coughs non-stop. When the doctor came in she was wearing a N95 mask. (Usually used for TB patients). I'm like wtf... but then when the doctor heard me up close and not through doors that's when she noticed my weird coughing and after some assessments diagnosed me with Bronchitis.
I'm not surprised since this isn't my first time with it. I already figured it out when the puking started. Almost every 2-3 years I'll have an attack like this though this. Though when it does it's not very kind. And I have multiple embarrassing incidents because of it. This time around I hid so I'm safe.
For those who aren't familiar with Bronchitis, I'll save you the googling. It's when bronchioles are inflamed, closing up with phlegm and coughs, sometimes accompanied by an infection. Majority is viral so antibiotics won't do shit.
So my doctor gave me an inhaler, Zomgah I almost cried because I kid you not, I really can't breathe like I'm drowning. And just in case to cover that minority, prescribed me an antibiotic. Plus I can continue my Tylenol Cold Max and Vit C supplement.
So far my disease experience this time around...
- The feeling of drowning without being underwater
- coughing up a storm to scare the shit out of my parents
- feeling like a rooster waking up everyone at 3-4 am, coughing up for at least 30 mins (I'm not joking, thankfully that stopped yesterday)
- Used up 18 boxes of tissue, no I'm not taking about those small boxes, and still counting. When I say puking, I really am.
- As much as I want to run to the sink, coughing/puking every 5 mins, add the fact that I'm having shortness of breathe plus feeling weak. It's the best alternative for me. Really weak that I had to wrestle the cover off a box
- Having to change the waste basket lining up to 3 times per day, and that includes me already stuffing/pushing in the trash more
- Covered up in vaporub and sweat, being unable to shower properly because I can't catch a chill or the fits will start
- The fits will also start with any irritants, I had to hold and cover when opening the corrugated side of the tissue box and sometimes my throat feels like there's dust in the water... oh ugh even the tissue, I get no escape. The little, tiniest, insy wincy specks of paper
- I'm also puking food with so much pressure when I cough
- poor appetite, my sugar's whacked  (I am diabetic)
- sleep deprived
- missed days of work which means I don't get paid

There's more that I probably missed but as usual I am already blabbering.
I am being shown no mercy and hopefully I get better soon. I have missed taking care of myself, my face is hairy.
In a weird coincidence, every time someone calls me I'm in the middle of a coughing fit

Another road block or a bump


I guess when the time that you don't feel like going to work, that is the time you try to find a new one. I love doing what I'm doing but my current one leaves me battered both physically and mentally, and leaves my patience glass to always empty every shift. Some can handle this but I'm feeling like jumping to something else less demanding.
They kept telling me I'm young but I feel ancient. No motivation to work, not counting the fact that almost everyone needs a paycheck.
I still have a contract with my work ): sadly a couple more months... Hopefully I got a transfer soon...
