As Seen......

As I go through life I see things that just plain amuse me....Here are just a few of them.

"The only reason some people are alive is because it's illegal to kill them"
"Your gene pool needs a lifeguard"
"Family reunions.....Not just for picking up girls."
"I didn't fight to the top of the food chain to eat vegtables"

Saw these on Tee Shirts around town here. Amazing what you'll see when you just look around. Oh got another good one for ya........Grinders. What is it? It's a sub sandwich. Geez, what is up with these folks. LOL. Steamers......Clams. Why are they called that....'Cause you steam them.
Just a few thoughts for the day. Hope you enjoy.

Oh Canada.....

Last couple of nights I have worked with some girls from Canada. They are from New Foundland. I thought I had a ride up here. These girls drove like four days to get here. And the hoops they had to jump through to get a license for the States. Geez. I asked them if it was worth it, and got a solid YES. Seems that with the socialized medicine up there the pay wages are much less. Guess that puts Canada in the nice place to visit but I don't wanna live there list. Although one girl did tell me that I need to come up there moose hunting. Hmmmmm now that might be an idea.
Down to fifteen working days. Not getting anxious or nothing. Not really a whole lot going on around here right now. The leaves are starting to change. May have to take a ride into the country to see if I can get some decent pictures.
Hope y'all have a good day. Drop me a line to say HI.

16 Days to Go!!

Ok I'm down to 16 working days. Thats four weeks. My birthday is gonna be my last night to work at Backus Hospital in Norwich. Not a bad birthday present. The wife, Julie, is gonna fly up that Friday. I'm gonna show her around here a little then that Saturday we are going out to eat with some folks that I work with. Then Sunday we are heading South. Back to the land of cotton, soybeans, good 'ole boys, and manners. God I can't wait.
I have decided that I am really pathetic. Got into a bit of a funk here. Guess it was the trip home the end of August. Got me really home sick and I was a real bear. But I'm better now. Still home sick. But I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. This is the longest I've been separated from my family. And I was trying to work way too much, and I got tired. This led to my being grumpy. To all that love me that I was short with, I apologize. Didn't mean it. Love you all.
Think I've decided to do the PRN thing at old hospital. Hope they can keep me busy. But heck, hunting season is getting ready to kick off. So it can't all be bad. Gotta restock the freezer. And I hear from my club members that we got a good herd of deer this year. Man I hope so.
Well hope all is well with you and yours. Drop me a line. LET'S GIT 'ER DONE!!!

18 Work Days

Down to eighteen work days left of this contract. Like the sound of that better than weeks. Not sure what to do after here. Home or travel? Who really knows. I'm at a lost right now. Any suggestions? Let 'em come.

Let the Countdown Begin.

Hey, yeah I know. It's been a while. Seems that I've been busy of late working and trying to find a new assignment around Memphis or Mississippi. Shoot, I'll even go as far as central Arkansas. Got a good chance of going back PRN at my old hospital and the one before that. It's just a matter really of my saying OK and taking the position. But I keep holding out for a travel position. Hope it comes thru. Not that I don't like my old hospitals, but I'm kinda getting where I like this here travel stuff.
Hmmmm....What's happened of late? Oh yeah, Priest was great. Rob Halford can still wail. It's amazing how great his voice still is. Put on a great show. Had a band called Shadows Fall opening up for them. Pretty good too. Heck they rocked. I highly recommend that you see these two bands if at all possible.
Yep the countdown 'til I head home has now begun. It's about four and a half weeks 'til I'm done here. Or even better yet nineteen working days. Of course that's four days a week plus the three left of this week. But I like the sound of that better. Backus and Aureus want me to re-up, but this 'ole boy is headed South for the winter. I hear that they actually get SNOW up here.
Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Drop me a line and say HI.
