beansideIt's Wednesday! I've made to to half way through the week! Today I have a full day, then tomorrow and Friday will be half days, so that's not too bad. Yesterday was busy, yet not too bad, which was nice. I took a good hour trying to move patients, since we had some cancellations. Most of them weren't interested in moving, sadly.
The evening wasn't that great. First of all, we were having shitty weather, and I was achy. Second, my backup glasses were delivered...but not to me. Then, I had ordered chicken and a salad, and I was very excited about the salad. Ruby Tuesday's has the best Ranch dressing of anywhere. And then the salad came, but no dressing, and the chicken was underseasoned and sparse. I was just generally annoyed and unhappy. I felt like a whiny baby, but I was actually sad about this, because I really wanted the ranch dressing.
Still, I felt really silly that it was affecting me, so I eventually snapped out of it. I watched some videos about the hotels we're staying at for the Alaska trip. The first one is the Pan Pacific in Vancouver. It was actually built above the cruise terminal, so boarding is a quick trip to a special elevator and down we go. TBF, I've stayed in 4 star hotels, but never a 5 star, so this seemed inordinately swank.
And it seemed swank in an understated way, like a more modern class. Everything is very sleek and pretty and the rooms are very well furnished. We're in the basic room, so it's not like bells and whistles, but it's still very nice. I think I'll enjoy my two nights there.
After that, I watched about the CedarBrook Lodge in Seattle. It looks lovely as well, though with a more rustic feel. This one is only for one night. It has a lounge for each building with a fridge with free ice cream. It looked very cute, and they have a shuttle to the airport so I'm good with it.
That made me feel better and got me excited about our trip. We got two rooms for that, so that my sister and brother in law could have their own room. Plus, I figured we're going to be in close proximity for most of the cruise. It would be good to have a little privacy at the beginning and end of the vacation.
Today, I need to go get my pills, and also stop at the Student Support Network with our extra coats. We ordred the wrong sizes, and didn't get around to sending them back, so we have some very nice, fairly expensive winter coats that people can use. This helps students and their families with basics and winter gear. They're open til 6 tonight, so I will run up and give them some coats, and maybe a bit of a donation as well. I'll have my check by then, so I can stop at the bank and help their mission out.
Tomorrow, we have Jess post op appt, which is first thing in the morning. Because of traffic around Washington DC, we'll have to leave at ass-o-clock, probably about 5:30. We'll be there super early, but it's the only way to be sure to miss traffic. If we leave at 6, the commute time jumps from 1hr 15minutes to at least 1.5 hours, if not longer. If we leave at 6:30, it's going to take 2 hours. Jess' appt is at 8:30, so if I don't want to do my ADHD stressing about time, we're going to leave 3 hours early and get there 1.5 hours early. There's a coffee shop we can hit to kill time.
Then, work for 4 hours, then tattoo for 3 hours. It's a busy day!
Then, up to Comic Con to meet both Beauty and the Beast. I know the picture is going to be one I hate, but that's okay. I'll have the memories. I've never done a con like this, so I'm sure I'm going to be confused, but we'll figure it out.
I will post the picture once we get home an I can scan it, so you can all see how it looks.
Oh, I got a new dress from Midnight Hour. It's seriously hot, and I'm looking forward to wearing it somewhere. Gotta find someplace fancy to wear it with my military jacket from Torrid.
Okay, time to got forth and get myself together for work. Everyone have a wonderful Wednesday!
