I had my interview with my first choice hospital. It went really good. The position is not exactly what I was hoping for, but I have learned this week that nursing jobs (along with many other jobs in the nation right now) are slim pickings. I am grateful to have the potential for a job at all. They went ahead and finger printed me and started the background check. I think that's a good sign. I don't think they'd put money into doing that if they already knew they weren't going to hire me. The nurse recruiter told me that she'd be in touch within 3 weeks. That seems like so long from now...bummer.
I toured my second choice hospital and really like the facility, but they don't seem to have many employment opportunities. Their interview process is also much longer and more complex.
1. Okay, so I really like Matt on American Idol, but I don't think he has a chance to win this competition. Out of all the contestants, he's one of the few that I can actually see myself downloading his music when it's over. I think he'll be gone next week though (along with Lil).
2. Why do people name their kids such odd names? I have heard so many strange names recently. Granted some of them are movie stars, eg, Apple, Phineas and Hazel, Suri, etc. But some aren't. Are we just taking random words from the English language (and sometimes other languages) and turning them into our children's names? This has to stop somewhere or else we're going to be calling for little "Table" and "Chair" to come to Mommy.
3. I got to take pictures of a friend's daughter this week. She was not in the mood to have her picture taken, but I still got some great shots. I got 185 pictures in about 90 minutes. I am learning that for every 50 or so pictures, you get 1-2 really good ones.

The fingerprinting is a great sign! I'm keeping my fingers crossed super tight. So tight, I'm typing all of this with my right hand while my left is in knots!
1)I <3 Anoop, but Adam has grown on me to the extent that I would boycott the show 4eva if he doens't win.
2)I have an Aunt Hazel. What?
3) Your camera rocks. It's obvious that the model is the problem. You should stick to professionals. I mean, three shots, three great faces of Sam. I really should charge more.
Addendum: As to #2, she's not exactly my aunt but she's old and related to me somehow. Ask Spud about her. Oh. And have you met Ronald and Donald?
I wonder how many of your readers are thinking, "And she doesn't think 'Ladonna' is a strange name?" Remember the story of Female Brown and Pajama Jones. MOM
It was reinstated in the last stimulus bill. 3.5/person. Hooray for job security!
