O.k. so half way through my shift tonight at the Ridge I looked down to discover a hole in the crotch of my dress pants. Not a small hole mind you..it was huge. The discovery occured after I had made my rounds around to every unit in the hospital. No clue who saw it or who didn't. There was no way to cover it and no safety pins anywhere in the office. Luckily work was quiet the remaining 4 hours so I just hid alone in the office. I have such great luck at times. I worked two night shifts this weekend and I am exhausted but it still takes me awhile to wind down to go to sleep. No work tomorrow though and Monday is a holiday...sweet relief.:-) Although..let's be honest I have enough work to more than keep me busy. I am going to hibernate and work on papers.

I am pretty sure that I am not living alone..I am joined by a small, furry rodent. Three nights ago as I slept soundly I was awakened to a loud scratching. Thinking someone was trying to get in...I went and looked out (yes..stupid I know..like those women who run upstairs in the scary movies)..no one was there. I realized then that the noise must be coming from my closet. I slammed the door shut and the noise stopped. The next day I was laughed at when I called the maintence, but I don't care. I am not sure if they found anything or not, but that closet door is staying shut for now. I can't deal with it...rodents and reptiles make me freak out. I know I need to set traps..as everyone has told me..but there is no way that I am doing that alone. We'll see. For now I will stomp loudly and jump at random sounds in hopes that I will not come face to face with the little furry punk.
