Well shoot...

..I'll write something!
I'm sitting at work with piles of things to do all around me but, well, hmm I think this will keep me from running out the door.
Today it snowed in Seattle. Ya know, a lite dusting, we got about 2 inches at my house just north of the city. Yahoo! It was pretty and enabled me to wear my hip new knit headband scarf that my friends new roommate made for me randomly.
But when I get to the busstop, I get a snarky remark from one of the guys standing there 'sheesh well aren't you the optomist, showing up now' (I had slept in a bit and decided to catch the 7:40 bus instead of the 7:28 bus, and the guys who wanted to ride the 7:28 bus were still standing there, defeated and cold). Apparantly no bus had passed in the last 30 minutes or so. At around 8am one finally comes around the corner!! WoohoO!
It was one of the small buses, not the double bus with the bendy middle that fits all the people that want to ride it in the morning. Luckily my stop is one of the earlier ones so I was able to snag a seat in the waaay back, before the bus was a mess of bodies snuggled up next to eachother.
I notice on my way in there are chains on the back tires of the bus.
Remember when I said there were 2 inches at my house?
There was about 1 inch downtown, but sometimes these people FrEaK OuT!!!!
But it is true that the city of Seattle is cheap and they only have 20 snowplows for the whole city, and refuse to lay salt since we have so many waterways they want to keep clean.
So theres that.

On another note! I decided that I am going to go to nursing school!
I probably won't apply until at least Fall of 2010, but I'm going to be taking Anatomy and Physiology this spring Monday and Wednesday evenings. Woohoo!

On one more final note, I am now a Specimen Collection Specialist at work, and got to go to surgery 3 times this week! Which means I was in charge of cutting up and preserving tissue for further research from women that are enrolled in our Ovarian study. I get the tissue after the Pathologist has gotten it from the surgeon, so its not supercharged Greys Anatomy level of coolness, but I get to wear scrubs and use a scalpel!
Super exciting!

Ok G-Rap All Stars! I did my part!
Your turn.
