Eww Boogers

I have been thinking about my major and I have decided to make a list of all the pros and cons of being a nurse.
Pros:

• Feel good about helping others
• Have a good idea of what kind of sick  your kid brought home
• Have a good respectable career
• Make good money
• Can work literally anywhere in the US or outside of the US
• Depending on what kind of nurse you are (lets say ER nurse) you would see lots of interesting things every day

Cons:

• Boogers, unfortunately I cant stand boogers.  I can deal with bodily fluids, vomit, blood, anything but a booger.
• You might get attached to a patient and they die
• If there was a zombie apocalypse or plague of some kind, more than likely, you would be the first to get it.

I am sure there are more, but that is all I can think of right now. Pros are outweighing the cons, so that is good. Maybe I can get used to boogers.  I am not exactly sure what kind of nurse I want to be yet, but I think I am going in the right direction.

Danger in School

So there was yet another school shooting on the news today. It is really sad and kind of scary because I realized, hey I go to school. Either people are bringing up more and more psychopaths or people are being really mean to each other to make someone want to go on a killing spree. It just blows my mind.  I hated high school, but I would have never thought of doing such a thin Maybe I would day dream about punching someone in the nose, but that was as far as it went. In fact I was, in school when Columbine happened. It was my Junior year. We didn't even have metal detectors in our high school. School was much smaller back then too.  I think there were like 400 students in my high school. I went to West Oak, but still. They have had to add on a floor since then.  I dont know how many students they have now, but Im sure it is more than 400. I can not imagine what the students that were there during the shooting are going through.  I watched a movie called "April Showers" recently. It was based on Columbine and I just cried the whole movie. I think teachers should be able to carry some kind of protection. That just sounds terrible. Teachers needing to be armed at school sounds terrible. Such is the world we live in I guess.

I wish I was a little bit taller....

I wish I was a little bit taller.  I wish I had a pool full of money and that I could swim in it like Scrooge McDuck  from Duck Tales. I wish we had cars like the Jetsons and they even made that funny little sound when they went by.  Also, a robot maid named Rosy would be extremely nice.  I wish I could eat whatever I want and have no consequences.  I wish there really were pots of gold at the ends of rainbows..although if there were, then rainbows probably wouldn't be peaceful anymore because there would be riots and murder at the end of them due to the massive amounts of people that would be going for the gold.  I wish people stopped  aging at 25.  I wish summer would hurry up and get here. I wish I had a closet dedicated to nothing but shoes like some of the people on Cribs.  In fact any one of the house of the show Cribs would be nice to have.  I guess if I had absolutely everything I wanted life wouldn't be very fun.  I would have nothing to look forward to.

Dirty Diaper in a Plate?

So when is it ok to leave a dirty diaper in a dish at a restaurant?  I work as a server and tonight I was thoroughly disgusted.  Not only did the patrons at my place of employ let their kids grind crackers into the carpet, but as I was cleaning up the table after they left I found a dirty diaper in the plate.  What makes that ok? I'm convinced that they hate me.  Actually, this is not the first time it has happened either.  Although, I have been there for 12 years and it has only been about three times...still.  I know when my kids were babies I wouldn't even leave a dirty diaper in someones trash for fear it would stink up the place.  I would tote around those scented bags and just put it in the diaper bag and then throw it away when I got home.  Not just the diaper but the crackers were bad too.  They were little crushed into millions of pieces and it looked like they had just spun around with the bag so the crumbs were good and spread out and then danced in them.  I know I am not the best server ever, but I don't think people think when they go out to eat sometimes.
