Yup folks thats a pickle in a bag...and not just any pickle a GIANT pickle!!! I had to save it to bring it home and take a picture. I still have some of it it was "rich" if thats a word for a pickle and could only eat half of it.
Aside from my exciting gift of the PICKLE on friday my day was rather stressful. I am on my mental health rotation, and this week i had 2 patients. Thursday went wonderfully i discharged one a teenager who just needed a swift kick to the butt and a middle aged alcoholic who was rather pleasant, just well going through with withdrawals. But friday i got a new patient a 45 year old woman with a history of drug abuse, sexual abuse as a child and prostitution, cutting, and suicide attempts she was in for suicidal ideation(had a plan). Well she also had borderline personality disorder...look it up! but in short imagine a teenager, a very needy one that is very manipulative with bipolar but instead of the ups and downs lasting a couple of weeks or days they last for hours sometimes minutes. Needless to say life suckers....just exhausting patients, so at the end of the day all i wanted to do was scream, and shake this woman....but i know she was sick, but still it's hard, and medicine doesnt' help them, and she couldn't get antianxieties b/c of being a drug addict....errrrr but other than that i LOVE this mental health unit, and actually would like to work in psych ...more specifically i think i want to work in adolecent psych!!!!!
Friday night i stayed home, took a nap, worked on my resume, bc i have a job interview this week, and went to bed early.
Saturday i worked all day, but at the end of my shift my friend megan came i hadn't seen her in forever so we got to chat for a little bit. Then I went to my friend Christina's and we got to go shopping, I got a few things nothing exciting well okay a little a jacket for my job interview for 10$ very cute, and then a blue stripped shirt also maybe for my interview we'll see how i feel on wed. And then a dress to wear this friday for Christina's birthday outing it's cute but i'm not sure i want to keep it, maybe i'll post a picture this week and you can all give your 2 sense!!! AFter shopping we went and rented a movie..."Sydney White...and the 7 dorks" it was very cute a spoof on snow white with amanda bynes I like her so i thought the movie was funny...We also got chipotle for dinner yum yum in my tummy!!!!!
Today i checked out a new church, it was okay but i don't think i want to drive that far (1/2 hour) for something that was just "okay". I took a nap when i got home it was glorious. And then headed to a new panera, i like to mix it up! it is currently filled with adolecent boys who apparently just got out of a swim meet all of their hair is wet and has the same "look" to it. But I should probably start studying for that big test i have on tuesday. Wish me luck!!!!!
Here is a fun picture i took of the pickle!!!! YOu know you want one!!!!!
