On Thursday I had an echocardiogram to help determine the source of my fast heart rate.

I haven’t heard anything from the doctors, not has the test results been posted to my electronic health record.  Right now, I can only assume they found nothing that is a Big Deal and perhaps I just have more anxiety than I previously thought. 

On a similar note, I did get to see my EKG results and learned I have a shortened PR interval with a normal QRS.  This has a special name, but apparently they don’t use it anymore since it has absolutely no side effects what so ever.  It’s abnormal, yet normal.

In happier news, I had an idea to get two little bookshelves like these and use them as end tables.  It can support lamps AND house DVDs.  NGL, I felt a bit smart for that thought.

When I tell people that I am feeling really stressed about my job, they tell me not to worry because I’m smart and I can handle it.  That doesn’t make me feel better.  I can still be smart and feel COMPLETELY OVERWHELMED by this new job.

Enter whole whiny rant about this here —->

Why is being a moderately responsible adult so tiring?

It’s been a busy first week at work, but woo three day weekend!

… I don’t understand how the two are related, nor do I want to know.

I have a shelf with cookbooks on it.  I feel so adult.

The house has Internets!

And a crap load of boxes.

Tomorrow I am moving five hours away from Pittsburgh to this house in order to start my very first nursing job.  BBL when I get the Internets again.

I hate packing and I feel like I don’t even have a fraction of my things packed away yet.  Right now, it feels like I’ll never be finished.  Yes, most of the boxes came from the liquor store.
