Semester Countdown

5 tests
6 clinicals
4 days of lecture (6 lectures total)
1 presentation
1 (long) paper
2 community events
1 academic advisor appointment
and still working at my 2 jobs (23 hours/week total)

All in the next 3 1/2 weeks! Yikes. Better get crackin'.

Thanks for the Pity

It was a rough week, but I'm doing a little better now. I didn't have strep throat, but I was hoping it was so I could just take antibiotics and be done with this whole mess. My NP said it might be viral or it could be an allergic reaction to the county wide aerial spraying they did last week to get rid of our moth infestation. I don't know, my symptoms just feel bacterial to me. I can just feel those little guys making pus and are now lovingly depositing it in other places in my head. To be continued.

Good news:
1. My paper is about 4 sentences from being done and was much easier to do than I had anticipated.

2. Turnip and the house do not smell as bad now. The incident was not nearly as bad as what happened in June.

3. I have fun things to do this weekend including and dinner and movie double date with my neighbors and a vegan thanksgiving with a nursing friend on Sunday. I doubt Jake and I will even have much of Thanksgiving on Thursday because I am really busy and out of the house until Wednesday night at 11pm. Jake invited people over, so he's going to have to prepare everything with no car.

4. One month of school left for the semester!! (With 5 more tests crammed in there somehow......)

The "I need pity" post

#1 I think I have strep throat.

#2 Turnip got sprayed by a skunk again at 2am. She and our house smell like the devil.

#3 I have a paper to write and Jake has some major deadlines this week.

#4 I have to play the 'victim' part in our hospital's disaster drill for 8 hours tomorrow.
