    One diabetic dog with a glucose too low to read on the glucometer, one Boston with Anaphylactic allergic reaction, and one cat that is blocked and can't pee. All three came through the door at the same time. I think I got them all on the road to recovery.

    Yeah, that's not ok...but he's already deactivated....I'm sure he'll get enough flags to pull that post.

    @jesusHchris If we flag it enough it disappears right?

    I think it needs 5 flags to get automatically pulled...otherwise they'll get it in the morning.

    Another evening of crap sleep! Woke up a ton and woke up too early. My IBS symptoms have been so bad it feels like labor pains at times! Really tough to sleep with that pain. I always lose a few lbs when I have an episode but in a bad malnutrion kind of way instead of the ideal way. Can't drink coffee...it is like liquid fire for my innards...but I'm sooo tired from crappy sleep!

    But Uncle Jeff the dog is gone finally and the in-laws brought us a TON of beer from the West Coast! Can't drink it until this episode passes but hey...I'm so excited to try some of these beers we've waited years to try!

    My MIL also brought over a bunch of Wen stuff she doesn't use. You know the hair informmercials? She got the girls of the fam a box of Wen stuff for Christmas awhile back. They enrolled her in auto-delivery and she ended up getting multiple boxes. I ended up loving it. With weird hair colors, you have to use something super mild yet effective since most people with weird hair colors wash quite infrequently. It took me over a year to use the two bottles from my box. I knew she had some and wasn't using it so I mentioned something about me ordering more and she offered her stash instead...which I knew she would do since she doesn't even use it herself. She gave me a total of SIX more of the shampoos (or cleansing conditioner as it is technically called), 3 more conditioners and 3 tubes of hair dressing! The shampoos alone are like $30 a pop! So I now have hundreds of dollars and YEARS worth of hair stuff! Of course lavender-scented...which isn't my favorite scent but I cannot complain!

    I am about to do my rounds and then probably sit in the office all night and watch YouTube videos and wait for people to discuss interesting things in this thread.

    I live such an exhilarating life.... :lol:

    I've got a bachelor party here. They are out at the titty bar now...when they come staggering in a few hours from now...that may get interesting.

    @jennifer_417 We've had pimps/prostitutes over the years but we had one full-on, official pimp. He wore satin suits in purple, orange, red...matching hat, shoes, the works. He drove a big ol' chromed out Caddy. His wife was always dressed crazy too. Then they'd have a gaggle of girls with them. He was so loud because he was half deaf, spelled his last name for me every time he checked in. C'mon, sir. Do you really think I don't remember you?! What a trip...

    I've got a girl's high schools softball team, and they are brats!

    That guy sounds really interesting...lol! I'm smack in the middle of the Midwest, so we just don't see that kind of thing too much, but I guess it shouldn't really surprise me, this area is kind of getting worse all the time.

    I'm Midwest. Work in IA, live in IL.

    The worst teams are always boys hockey for us! Leave their stinky gear in the hall. Rowdy. We had a team and the coach's name was...wait for this...Dick Glasscock. And he didn't care what the kids did.

    Another name good for a chuckle? I can't remember her first name but last name was Stankebich. Stank-a-b$#h is how it sounded.

    Those are awesome names. How...how did you keep a straight face checking them in?

    Agreed. I know if I worked there I would probably be fired within a week because I would not be able to act professional.

    I had to call ol' Dick Glasscock many times to complain about his team..."Um, may I speak to Dick Glasscock?" I had to SAY it...out loud! I was usually peeved when I had to call him so that must have been what kept me from giggling.

    Woah...wacked out names. We have a Glasscock county here in Texas and most counties are named after someone so I figured SOMEBODY out there has the surname.

    I have been craving Funyuns for a couple days.

    In other news, I got out for my rounds and normally I hear Sergeant Sexy Pants call out over the radio when he is coming over to my campus but tonight I haven't heard a thing from anyone other than dispatch. Fine by me, if he doesn't want to come over here. We need some space anyway after almost a full two days hanging out together.

    Well apparently, he snuck onto my campus while I was about, crept into the office, took the paperwork I put out for him, and then drops off a small bag of Funyuns right in front of my keyboard. So I come in and I see the paperwork gone and I'm like "Okay, he still needs some space and is avoiding me. Cool." Then I see the Funyuns and (bear in mind I'm dealing with TOM) I start crying those stupid happy tears.

    Guys out there, when women say "It's the little things." It really is the *kitten* little things. *crunches on a Funyun*

    He came back into the office and saw me crying and asked why and I told him, he tried to play it off like he just had an extra $0.65 after he got his stuff out of the vending machine. His silly grin about how happy he made me gave it away.

    He's a softy. :smiley:

    He called me into his office to ask me why a friend of his had to wait two hours for a vaccine. I told him what happened and told him that I managed to save one of the two patients but I couldn't manage both patients and stop to do a vaccine. He just paused and said, "Well, we can't really let a dog die over a vaccine. You'll just have to learn to go faster." That was his way of saying, "You did it right but I hate dealing with upset clients." :smile: So yes, in his own way, he had my back. He was a good boss. I wish he was still practicing but unfortunately he has passed on.

    Aid....have I missed something about this being an old story about the client from hell or did you flip and do your boss in and are now standing over him under your patio???......your secrets safe with us if its the later mate......;)

    When they were going to storm upstairs at 2am and supposedly try to bust their "friend" out of my room? When I have a high school girl's softball team inhouse?

    You bet I am. :|
