About Me

Being an author is an amusing series of ups and downs. As a self-published writer, there are a lot of stories going on at once. A lot of stories means a lot of characters bouncing around and a lot of juggling. It's not easy being an author of fantasy in the real world, but I try to get by.

Do I smell smoke...

Settling into my parents' house to start my fourth clinical rotation... The first one of my last semester. I'm hoping everything goes well tomorrow but I'm a little worried.
1. Hospital is in middle of nowhere... winter weather advisory in effect
2. First day of class and I already had to talk to the teacher... totally not my fault someone snaps and threatens to poke my eye out with a pencil... *sigh*
3. Was home 20 minutes and halfway into my Physics homework when my mom decided to give me "rules".

Oh boy... a thirty year old with rules. I know I'm encroaching and I feel bad enough already. Now I feel worse about it. I'm only praying tomorrow goes well. Usually after my body gets back in tune with the early morning crap, I can go back to writing...

And yes, I really love ultrasound. No one who puts up with all the torture of the program and graduates can possibly hate it. If I didn't love it I wouldn't show up to be raked over coals every day with no pay, to have piles and piles of paperwork to do... reports, image ids, portfolios... it's a lot of work...

And, now, off to bed praying to every higher power I can think of and holding every lucky charm I could find.

Hold my cat turd... what? They're NOT lucky...

Trying to hang on,
Jennifer
