I should be studying… but as enticing as diseased feet are (yech), I’m somehow struggling to stay focused.
I’m waiting to hear back from the behavioral advisory committee – the psychologists and other people determining whether I’m ready to go back to school – but it will probably be a few more days before I get a final answer. I’m optimistic though. Things are going well right now (mood-wise), and I can’t see any reason for them to tell me no this time.
I need them to remove the hold from my student account so I can register for classes and get my financial aid taken care of. I also need to discuss my clinical rotation schedule with the faculty member who arranges these things, because the way things are now, I’ll have no breaks at all between April and November, and that’s a long time to go without a week off. Maybe we can move my rotations around a bit to space it out a little better.
Wait… did I already mention that in my last post? Oh well.
Completely unrelated is the fact that my fish is finally actually swallowing his food instead of spitting it back out like he had been doing for the past few days. This makes me happy. I am also happy that he has not taken any real interest in the cherry shrimp co-populating the tank. Many bettas would see the shrimp as a tasty snack, so I’m glad they’re getting along fairly peaceably.
Oh, and if anyone wants to buy a 5.5 gallon fish tank, I have one I’m trying to get rid of. I’ve had about four craigslist people flake out on me so far, and I’m getting kind of annoyed. Someone just buy the dang thing already!
In other news, I don’t have to go to work tomorrow because we’re expecting 10-16 inches of snow tonight through tomorrow night. I’m excited because I like snow, but I’m not too thrilled to lose a day’s pay. That’s one sucky thing about being a temp – no PTO. My plans? Exercise (on my mini stepper!), shower, and lounge about in my pajamas. Oh, I guess I could study too… that might be a good use of my time.
Speaking of studying, that would probably be the wiser use of my evening, so I guess I’ll be going now. Bye!
Because I couldn’t afford the service costs associated with an iPhone, I bought an iPod Touch for my clinical rotations, and I have LOVED it. The medical programs I use most often are
