Its the weekend! (for me anyway)

I am on my night off after two nights of working.  My shifts went just fine.  I had one slightly confused patient try to call police on the room phone because the IV pump started to beep.  I had to tell my patient, "you are at the hospital so that means you can use the call button to call the nurse instead of the police, we would be happy to help you." I don't know if my patient thought that because it is night time all the nurses had gone home or what.  It is a constant source of surprise for some of them that the nurses are there all night too. What would I do with a boring job?  I tell you what I would do, I would be bored.

I am writing this whole post with Saber Tooth draped across my arms, it makes typing a challenge, but he just does not want to move.  I do have to admit that he is a good cat, he is super cuddly and loves having his belly rubbed, there is nothing better than petting a cats belly.  It is one of the finer things in life that should be properly appreciated.  Most of the time petting a cat belly is a very risky endeavor so be forewarned if you indulge, you may not come away from the experience with your epidermis intact.

We also hit the gym tonight which was good, I like working out at 0300 in the morning, that means there is no one there when I look dumb grunting trying to lift pathetically small weights.  I can be as goofy and spastic as I want.  Tonight I practiced my jump roping skills which were sadly rusty.  I am sure the people screening the security footage get a kick out of me.

I think there is a farmers market in town tomorrow so we will try to go check that out and see if it is a worth while event.  yipee skippy.
