So, yeah... stuff...

I bored to all hell. I HATE being sick and I HATE insomnia and I hate, I Hate, I HATE the fact that my truck is still in the shop.

Heh, I sound like that witch from the Disney movie Sword in the Stone. I hate sunshine, I hate horrible dreadful sunshine.

It snowed overnight here. About three inches - enough to make things beautiful without clogging the roads. However, three inches of snow apparently paralyzes Washington, DC... which is great because there will be no traffic to contend with as we drive to our weekend getaway at the B&B.

The next three days are supposed to be sunny, with highs tomorrow and Sunday of about 40 degrees. It's wonderful that the weather will be so perfect!

I am actually feeling excited! That almost never happens to me. Just a couple of hours before we leave.

My part of Ohio got some snow yesterday and overnight, too. I'm not sure how many inches, but the roads are already pretty much cleared.

Here's some randomness for ya. At work yesterday there was a wreck. Ended up picking a piece of the guy's femur off the floorboard. Nice, eh?

Femur details and diagram at Wikipedia

Found a piece of a femur? That's messed up.

soggypicklemuncher · 12-09-2005, 08:04 AM

Ouch! D: .........

MedicGirl · 12-09-2005, 08:16 AM

Yeah it wasn't noticed until after the patient was extricated. (removed from vehicle)

It was placed in a plastic bag and sent to the nearest trauma center along with the patient...to be placed back together.

Other patients...different wreck...same day...
One broken sternum. (chest plate)
One broken humerus. (upper arm bone)
Two displaced shoulders.

Also got to land a helicopter in the parking lot as one was already on our landing pad.

Fun day yesterday.

Once I stood near a landing pad while a helicopter was taking off. It was... cathartic. I find big wind has that effect on me. My friends and I applauded when the helicopter took off. Good times. I hope the person was OK.

Ben Lahnger · 12-09-2005, 09:13 AM

Wow ... seriously? Umm ... lots of thoughts about that ...

First, Xng - very nice pic ... and another cofirmation that makeup and black clothing are not a measuring stick ... and yes, I said you were very Goth.

Second - went through a number of entries before I got bored ... is this an exercise in "look how good my photoshop skills are" or "look how much black clothing, makeup and or blood I am wearing" or "look how well I lobby my friends to vote for me?" (Xng, I know you weren't doing that.)

Third - some of the names crack me up ... "so_goth_it_hurts" ? LMAO!

Ben Lahnger · 12-09-2005, 10:17 AM

All new, on this week's "Extreme Goth Makeover!"

I like it.

MedicGirl · 12-09-2005, 10:26 AM

Bad wreck patient update:

All patients involved are OK.

MedicGirl · 12-09-2005, 10:36 AM

Me too. I like it when they turn out good.

tenet_2012 · 12-09-2005, 11:19 AM

Yay!!!!!!!!

Finals week is officially over!

I'm going to lay around, catch-up on the boards, go clubbing and do nothing in general for the next month!

Feck yeah!

Here is some randomness:

Herion goes together very nicely with my two favorite hobbies:

Laying around and doing nothing.

Ben Lahnger · 12-09-2005, 11:28 AM

Even femur guy? Wow, that is good news!

I just learned that when Pink Floyd recorded "The Wall" in 1979, they kicked keyboard player Richard Wright out of the band. Then when they went on tour to promote the album, they hired him as a salaried session musician.

The stage show was so mammoth and expensive to produce, that the tour lost money. The three remaining band members had to pitch in to absorb the exess cost. And that's how Richard Wright got fired from the band and ended up being the only one to make money off of the tour.

And justice was served! LOL!

Ben Lahnger · 12-09-2005, 12:35 PM

Tenet ... enjoy the break. Sounds like you've earned it.

If you think winter recess is great, just wait until that period of time right after you graduate where you have no responsiblities whatsoever, save a job perhaps (although one big negative is the dread of the upcoming "transition into the scary real world")...which leaves but one rational choice....GRADUATE SCHOOL.

I Didn't vote, but I have to say, that's certainly not a very gothy outfit. I mean, I KNOW you're gothic, but that outfit doesn't do it justice. Now, if that pic was on HOtorNOT, I would say HOT. But not goth. Based on picture alone.

I want to see one of you all gothed out!!!

12-09-2005, 01:06 PM

Actually Xng to me that picture is more gothic looking than the idiot that came up after i voted (ten btw). He was trying so hard he looked silly.

Goth or Not. Whatver...just plain hot.

I know, but it's a good pic.

Xng,

So now I've voted both places ... Goth - 9, Hot -10.

And yes, it's a good pic.

tenet_2012 · 12-09-2005, 01:23 PM

Yeah right, Xng...

*show-off*

Dark_love_2008 · 12-09-2005, 03:42 PM

Well sence this is random, I just found out today I got into PlayMakers at school. I'm happy about that!

edible_eye · 12-09-2005, 03:54 PM

i'm in jersey for the next few days, doing an early christmas before my brother and his wife head off to argentina.

ben and tenet - thanx.

and xnguela - you're hot no matter what. y'know what i like best about your 'hotornot' pic? beneath it it says "share her with a friend". that kicks all kinds of ass.

medic - did you get to keep the femur?

and everyone feeling sick - i hope you feel better.
