Corner Booth

It's finally happened. After spending the better part of 6 years learning insanely stupid information that I will never EVER use in the real world I have passed a test that will now allow me to learn everything I really need to know while holding the lives of America's youth in my hands. That's right, I passed my nursing boards. Gaylord Focker in the flesh people. When I was walking out of the exam I was SURE that I had failed it and suddenly taking them in secret seemed like the most brilliant idea I had ever stolen from a friend of mine. Yesterday, though, I awoke to the message alert on my cell phone and listened as my boss congratulated me on passing. Almost...friggin'...lost it. I rushed to the computer to see for myself and sure enough the Ohio State Board of Nursing had granted me a license...fools. I must admit that I've checked the site quite a few times since then to see if they have realized their mistake and revoked it, but it seems that I really did pass. After getting kicked in the academic nuts for the past two years I guess I just expected to take another one to the coin purse, not this time though. Unfortunately, there are some set backs. For instance, if I'm out somewhere and someone gets hurt I'm obligated to try to help them until the EMS gets there. Can't just turn to the bar and get another beer while snickering about how hilarious "that guy's" fall was...se la vie.
Much Love,
