me: "I want to be like a tree"

Getto's pizza


Kip-like skinny boy at blockbuster who tried to hit on Charlene
Char: "Is he serious? Is he talking to me? Like, O my gosh."

"pack up your vintage life, we're leaving"

Psalm 142

I cry aloud to the Lord; I lift up my voice to the Lord for mercy. I pour out my complaint before him; before him I tell my trouble. When my spirit grows faint within me, it is you who knows my way. .. I cry to you, O Lord; I say, 'You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.' Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need; rescue me from those who pursue me, for they are too strong for me. Set me free from my prison, that I may praise your name. Then the righteous will gather about me beause of your goodness to me.

oh I forgot one

So in my review class, we're talking about what different variations in pupil shape and size indicate, and she says, "And if they (meaning the patient's pupils) are in the shape of a heart, it means they are in love with you."
I don't know why, I thought that was so funny, like a cartoon. I guess I was desperate for some comic releif, being in class all day all week in the summer, post graduation:)

long time

it's been a minute or two since I've been on here. And as usual, so much's transpired. In the N.O. for two weeks would be relaxing but for NCLEX prep. Oh well, at least I get to study in a GORGEOUS place with a big pool on the bayou, a two mile jog from Lake P, and all with family (hey that rhymes). It has been nice. I am like 36 hours from boards and am nervous and excited to get it done! (Metarie testing center here I come!) Lord please help me pass!! I have many great pictures to post when I get home. And now for the random musings that are the most fun part of having a blog:

"I saved the day again"

Mom, Char, and I trying to determine who Patrick Ewing (or some basketball guy)is: Mom:"He looks like a caveman!"


Perry: "you were a crazy teenager-- walking 5 miles, eating 2 whoppers, what else did you do?"
Mom: "Listen Mr. Thang-thang..."


Me and Char discussing the previous night's annual Beall girl "Bop till ya drop":
Me: "I dropped pretty early."
Char: "Girl, you did not even bop."
