You all should know that according to the online learning test just completed I am officially competent at my job.

Heh.

This may not be completely accurate, but I do think that I am getting there.

There isn't much to share that isn't either completely boring (my continuing caffeine habit or need for better personal hygiene) or completely horrifying (coding patients and back-alley pelvic exams) and I will spare you both of those categories and tell you these two things instead :

I am going to start my Christmas shopping today in the tropical heat of central Texas and if you are lucky maybe I am getting something for you.

I will be breaking my no cartoon character scrub tops rule Saturday and wearing a Charlie Brown Halloween shirt and possibly carrying it over to a party as part of my grouchy nurse who just got off work and can't drink anything because of some medication she is taking costume.

Don't you feel better for having these two bits of vital information ?
