I wish I had an exciting life, so that I had all kinds of interesting things to write about. Or that I had the ability to make the few things I do to fill my days interesting when I write about them. I feel like I am pretty boring. Work was pretty boring last night, although I did get an offer to go live with one of my little old men. He told me he was going to have to take me home with him. I told him he might have to fight Shane for me. Shane wouldn't even have to touch the guy to beat him. The man fell on his own in the beginning of the night trying to find his glasses. Talk about freaking me out. I was out at the nurse's station and actually heard him hit the floor right as his roomate hit the call light. You walk into the room and find a 200 pound man on the ground. Is he hurt? Did he hit his head? Can I, the little thing that I am, get this big guy off the ground without us both falling again? He was okay, other than a skin tear on his elbow. I got him up into bed and told him not to move without calling again. The whole incident created more paperwork, but I was so glad he wasn't hurt. Talk about making my heart stop beating for a minute when I heard that sound of a body hitting the tiled floor. Then he told me he wanted to take me home. Right after he tried to give me his bum leg. Kind of a character. So, that was the exciting part of my night. The rest of it just kind of dragged on. I gave a lot of pain meds and did a lot of paperwork. Now I am home, wasting time until the VW dealership opens so I can get my breaks fixed. It's really bad. They are past the squeaking stage. It's really scary and embarrassing that we didn't take the car in sooner. So, today is the day. We are also going to go to a yound married couple's bble study tonight through our church. Shane had school Thursdays before, so we couldn't go. Hope it's cool and we meet people and all. I also hope that if it is cool and we want to keep going, that it turns out I have some Thursdays off next month. Well, time to take my car in.
