pictures and superstitions

it's so difficult not to smile. pia and jerome came over to joey's grandma's house this weekend to take our pictures for the save the dates and it was soooooooooo hard ... i seriously should have taken a shot because i was so giggly. i can't wait to see how they come out. joey was a natural - he was so good! i'll be more prepared for our engagement photos now. thanks for being so patient o's!
anyway, these filipino superstitions are messing with me right now. i really don't know what to do about one. but i think i'm just going to have to bypass the superstition and move on cause i don't think i have a choice. oh well.
like yesterday's homily said - try to substitute your name instead of the word love. so i will try to do the "kay is patient, kay is kind" but when it comes to the part of "not jealous" that part i really need to work on. because as someone once told me when i told them that my favorite color is yellow, i guess i am celosa. i'll work on it.

just venting

so i usually love my job but this am was really hard. getting hit with an admit at 4 AM sucks. plus there's no way we can communicate. plus she's got blood everywhere from her ear draining all the way down her back. then when we're trying to settle everything down - xray comes and the trauma resident and the ENT team and the ortho team and the neurosurg team - ALL AT THE SAME TIME! meanwhile your other patient's vent pops off his trach and he has lipids and piggybacks due and he needs more potassium and magnesium and you only have 3 lines! and the other guy has 5 different drains that still need to be emptied!!!! i got out late and i shouldn't have. boo. oh well. four days off. yay!

small and intimate

so our epiphany lunch was small and intimate but it was fun no the less - i can't wait until next years - hahahahahahaha! ok, that was evil! anyway, thanks for coming guys! until next time! basta!

happy holidays

reg and i went to Mass yesterday and it was about Epiphany. the priest was talking about unity through diversity - the three kings were white, black and brown. so i thought of my own family and its diversity. hope you all had a wonderful holiday from my internationally unified family
