Candy makes my world go 'round.

This is what is getting me through my night shift tonight. Giant. Chewy. SweetTarts. And an Arnold Palmer.  Hot damn.  They are good together.  I may have a sugar crash later but.... who cares?!  The vending machines and the coffee shop are riiiiiiight around the corner.  I'll tell ya.... I make AWESOME decisions when sleep-deprived.

Here are some random & introspective night shift thoughts (in no particular order):

• I really miss Utah today.  Like it came out of nowhere and all of a sudden I was super homesick.
• I'm off all meat these days.  This also came out of nowhere.  But not cheese!  Me + cheese = BFF.
• The Bachelorette finale rocked (Jaimie, I watched 'em all, too).  I called it from the beginning that she'd pick JP.  I swear!
• The ONE week we'll be back in Utah this fall is the ONE week my go-to absolute most favorite hair stylist will be out of town.  What are the chances?!  I guess it's a sign.  Time to move on to a hair stylist on THIS coast.
• The downpour this evening in Boston was so amazing & healing. Can weather be 'healing'? I'd say so.
• I start my ER orientation in pediatrics NEXT WEEK.  Holy shit.  Little sick people scare me.
• Drunks in the ER are wicked frustrating.  Yes, that word has become a part of my vocabulary.  And, yes...  I love it. 
• One more night shift.... and then 6 days off.  I can do it!

I was thinking about this while using the bathroom tonight at work... When using a public restroom, do you flush the toilet using your hand or your foot?  I don't know if it's bad etiquette... but I totally use my foot.  Is that offensive to the hand flushers out there?!
