Uncharted Waters

The Milieu Supervisor called me just as I was waking up to say that he wants to see me in his office before I head on to the staff meeting in the morning. Me going in to see any upper management for any reason spells trouble. Or maybe he wants to lecture me on my attitude towards new douchebag coworkers.

This is not boding well. I try to call him back to see if I was in trouble and the HUC says he's gone for the day. WTF. I'd just gotten off the phone with him not even two minutes. Currently feeling like a Russian icebreaker in iceberg-filled waters.

Threat to the Collaborative

The outsider is a threat. He's making himself known. He's hungry, but it won't last long cuz I'm going to quell his thirst. He just can't step into my territory and expect me to pay homage to him. He has to earn it and so far, he's going about it the wrong way as he's in line to get his ass kicked.

And no one will help him.

I told the outsider that if he has a beef with Charles, then he has a problem with me. He suddenly got on the defensive as he was trying to cover his ass. I saw right through his transparency and called him on it. Then I told him he was invading my space. I had to tell him that he's not the know-it-all he thinks he is.

Aveo Headlight Pain

Had to go on youtube to change out the Aveo's headlight I needed help cuz its a pain in the ass.

Charlotte and I are no longer together. The relationship didn't work out.

The End.

An Interesting Morning

After waking up this morning, I immediately went downstairs to look for my old phone and do some dishes. Charlotte came down a few minutes later cuz she rarely sleeps whenever I'm not in bed. She'll follow me downstairs or wherever I'm at to see what I'm doing and just to check up on me. After we had an impromptu love-making, she told me to put pillows behind her back and had her hips elevated.

Dottie said that if I want to get pregnant, to not wash or pee for about fifteen minutes and keep my hips elevated.

What're you doing listening to Dottie, anyway? I thought you hated her?

 Well obviously she has three kids so she must know about getting pregnant.

I propped Charlotte's legs up with mine pushing against her thighs ... so it was a weird position to be in. Then I stood up, with her legs firmly pressed and held against my chest. On the bed. As we're both laughing.

I had off these past two days. Was asked to come in, but I turned Robert down. I'm not bending over backwards for that backstabbing assclown.

No Martial Arts!

I had to attend training for my new job -- I work in a stand-alone (away from the main campus) lock down facility that is a psych hospital, where we were doing standard blocking and escorts yesterday. The instructor, a huge muscle-bound, yet light-hearted man, was explaining the basic moves in avoiding a straight-forward punch, a round house attack and an upper cut. When it came to my turn, my body reacted ... I've been in the mental health profession for nine years and in the first two years, I was constantly being hit cuz I didn't know. Even though I was taught as per company policy, all that goes out the window when you freeze in fear.

I froze a time or two, but I quickly learned after a few hard knocks. So in the class yesterday, my body instinctively reacted to the instructor's moves. He then said, "Hm, we have someone who knows what he's doing", telling the class.

:shock:

Well uh, yeah? Then I had to repeat the same blocking motions and a one-person escort carry on another student, an RN. I thought I did it with ease. She, said (we were in the middle of the room, demonstrating to the class), "My god! You're quick!"

Yeah ... my ego shot up exponentially yesterday. Even before then, I got the feeling that all the night shift RNs like me. As I was walking back to get my stuff after classs, another tech on floor asked, "Are you done with the in-service?" I told her I was, and made tried to be facetious when I said, "The instructor said I failed cuz he said I was using martial arts". She just laughed and said, "Don't mind him. We need you on the team."

I felt appreciated.
