So, I've been back for a week now and I wish I was on vacation again. I loved most of my vacation. I wasn't too impressed by South Beach Miami where I stayed the first night. The food was too expensive and the hotel room for what I got was too expensive. it's a good thing the drink I had with dinner was a large and buy one get one free, I was a bit buzzed when I got back to the room which made it tolerable. So the buzz from the two drinks prevented me from finding the gay bars in South Beach. I'm currently planning my next cruise, it was so much fun and very relaxing. I think I will do a southern or eastern Caribbean next time around. While, I was hesitant to travel alone at first, I had a really good time. There was plenty of people watching on board. When I get sick of that I would go and chill out on my balcony and listen to my ipod and watch the waves go by or read. It was very relaxing and gave me a lot of time to think about everything that has happened the past year. I was fully relaxed and in a better state of mind when I got back home. Even being stuck an additional day in Miami didn't bother me. Also, I never got lonely being by myself and usually talked to people around me on the the various shore excursions or at the table next to me at dinner, which is unlike me but was fun. I meet some really nice Canadians one of the nights. They live about an hour or so from Buffalo and tried to convert me to become a Toronto Rock fan. It's funny, they hate the Maple Leafs too. When I was younger my grandmother had property in Ontario, in a town called Eganville, about a 7 hour drive from Buffalo, one of them even knew of it and had stayed there a few times for business. It really is a small world. Who would have thought I would have meet someone while on vacation in the Caribbean that would have known of that small town. I attended several of the ships productions, my favorite was a Cirque du Soleil type show called cirque pan, which was a retelling of the Peter Pan story. Peter Pan while he didn't speak had a great body and was from Holland. A few days later, he was directing people off the ferry at Great Stirrup Cay and has a lovely accent too. The Tulum ruins outside of Cozumel were the highlight of my trip. The views of the Caribbean from there were spectacular. I can see why the Mayas built the city there. It is also amazing to me to be able to walk in palces where you know people were walking thousands of years ago. It's a shame, most of the native american civilizations in the Untied States made their homes out of grasses, timber and animal hides, there are not very many ruins thousands of years old in our country. Being a history buff, I love stuff like that. to me is awsome to walk where I know people did thousands of years ago. Thats why Boston and NYC are awesome, there are places still standing where the forefathers of our country once walked and that was only in past several hundred years.
In other news, I am officially the new overnight pharmacist. I have to admit, right now, it is better than working day shift. This place while I love it is messed up. Maybe once they hire the three new people it will be better. I wasn't going to complain about work, but a doctor just managed to tick me off. Maybe, I shouldn't be blogging while at work, but so what. I consider this my lunch break since I'm not able to leave for lunch, like everyone else can, but I still get docked for lunch. I paged a doctor to follow up on a conversation we had earlier. The patient has a penicillin allergy and he had ordered zosyn and vanco. Well he resends the order, the vanco is crossed off and flagyl and cipro are added and the cipro is ordered iv with the po dose. So I text paged him so he could fix the problems. He calls back from the floor the patient is on and asks me to write the order. I'm sorry but that is the height of laziness considering he probably had the patients chart is his hand. The only bright side is that I know the order is written correctly.
The province convention is coming up shortly, I am getting excited to see my friends again. This year should be even more fun, I'm going to New Orleans with some of my pony posse friends. The trip should be great.
