Good morning and welcome to Saturday and Valentine's Day, if you celebrate. I am a little hurty this morning. I think I'm going to have to take the antibiotics, becasue I'm having massive pressure along side of my nose. It's makign my teeth hurt. So, anitibiotics. I've got my epipen, so if I have a reaction, I'm covered. It's really unpleasant though. I was trying to avoid antibiotics, but my body is an asshole. Hopefully they'll kick in soon, because this is really fucking unpleasant.
My not really fandom has broken containment! Both of the pro wrestling companies have been in the news lately-One for toadying up to the current administration, and one for having the fans go off on a Fuck ICE chant before the main event. I keep seeing people going "When we've lost wrestling..." but that's just AEW. For the most part, WWE fans are more conservative, and the product is more conservative. They've sold their soul to the Saudi's and are holding PPVs there and the CEO of WWE has very close ties to the admin, as his mother in law is Secretary of Education. I'm very disappointed in them.
AEW is also owned by a billionaire, but is the offbeat, younger, cooler league. They have a trans women's wrestler. And she's a baddie, but not because she's trans. The company backed her when she filled out a form as a woman, and Oklahoma threw a fit. There was a great angle where one of the women stars had it out for a wrestler who is legit gay. And it culminated in her propositioning him, while the crowd joyously chanted "He's gay." And he is SO over, and they allowed this angle where he got to portray a gay guy in a positive way. The TNA fans are great, and pretty open to going where the story goes, be it one of thoe things, or Toni Storm's lesbian era. (Look it up, it's glorious.)
It's not perfect. They rely way too much on blood and more hardcore matches, which are not my jam. But they feel safer.
Yesterday, Cardiac slots were opening up like Moses had parted the red sea around them. It was wild. Four CTAs and two MRIs. And a doctor who was like "Pt is eager to get this CTA done and will go to other locations." Then I call and no they weren't. Pt willing to go to two locations, and the doctor didn't mention that he currently is wearing a holter monitor, and can't be scanned for two more weeks. Which means that STAT spot on Monday is useless. Argh.
I asked my boss about one of the lines in the job posting. It mentioned onboarding. And yeah, apparently I will be going into the office once in a while to greet new hires and make sure that Tech Support gets them set up properly. I am perfectly okay with that. It's once every few months, so I can do that.
I have no idea of timeline on this position. My resume has moved from Pending review to in review, so hopefully it'll move soon. We'll see. The other one remains in "interview scheduled."
Ah well, Monday is another day.
Today, I have work, but I'm on Admin, which means that I'll be saving faxed and emailed orders into patient's charts to be scheduled. Normally, it's pretty quiet on Saturday for incoming stuff. It can be a bit boring, but we'll see. I also have a cardiac CT to fill on Thursday for White Marsh. They're my toughest site. They're only about 3 weeks out to schedule one, so it's not like I can say "Lets move you up a couple of months," like I can for some sites. Hopefully no others have opened up, or I'll be working on those, too.
Yoda has his grooming today, so he should be all clean and fresh by just after lunchtime. That'll be good, since he's getting shaggy.
Tomorrow, we have two games and our Valentine's lunch. Jess had a headache so we decided to risk the weather then. Still planning on Italian, which should be tasty. We got dinner from B-more Pies & Sweets. They were very tasty. I have a spinach goat cheese quiche or a crab quiche to choose from for breakfast.
I'm kind of ready for warmer weather. Today is supposed to be near 52 degrees, which I'm excited for. Walking the dog won't be a chore. Tomorrow, it's down to 44, but it still beats 7. I might even be able to wear my fleece today instead of the heavy coat. (Mind you, I love my heavy coat.)
Okay, time to get some CONfab posting done. We have a new newsletter, if you wanted to get news and updates on the Convention and the accompanying discord server. Subscribe right here! We do Watchalongs all the time. Everyone have an amazing Saturday!
