Things

I just took my iPhone to the bathroom with me to perform some updates, and I was sitting there for so long that I created more urine twice. This may be due in part to the two apple sangrias I just had, but whatever. Do you feel closer to me now? >:-D

I also changed my contact lenses today. I'm not so sure I've complained about my contacts yet in my blog. I HATE my contacts. In fact, they just came out with daily disposable contacts which I'm eagerly awaiting to switch to as soon as my current prescription expires. My contact lenses have been responsible for giving me chronic dry eye, red eye, and an ulcer. OMG. I can't tell you the number of times I've seriously considered switching back to glasses, but I haven't let myself go through with it yet. It's getting to the point, however, that I'm so angry when I change my contact lenses that I rip them into tiny shreds and curse at them as I throw their useless carcasses into the trash after two weeks of use. *angry black cloud of hate*

And now for more relevant things.

I learned (again) how to give intramuscular and subcutaneous (beneath the skin) injections today, in preparation for flu season coming up soon. Because pharmacists are allowed to give injections in the great state of Michigan (*snicker*), I was required to become certified. We learned this before in a laboratory I had in pharmacy school, but today was even more delightful! Instead of stabbing a random colleague once with a needle, I got to stab them three times! :D Of course, I also got stabbed three times myself, so I guess that's karma. I also updated my CPR certification, so if you happen to choke, have a heart attack, almost drown or otherwise stop breathing in my presence, I might just be able to save your ass.

The pharmacy business partner in my district officially offered me the position in the Lansing store which I mentioned. I eagerly accepted! :D

Tomorrow I work for 12 hours all by my little lonesome and then the hubby and I are driving up to Lake Huron for a much needed, much deserved 3-day siesta from reality. B-)
