Yay, you need your rest. I hear massive bradycardia really sucks it out of you.

Unless you're the crazy guy I had who was a direct admit from the clinic who decided to present 9 hours later in a 3rd degree block. HR of 18 didn't seem to bother him a bit. 🙂

Whoa, that's hardcore. That's what I have too, a 3rd degree block. It wasn't bothering me too much until I passed out. 😉

I'm reading all the EK stuff again tomorrow. I spent a couple hours on Wikipedia looking up random stuff. I didn't know what SRY genes were today so I think the genetics won't be too bad. 🙂

Glad you're feeling better.

Of course, when I hooked him up to the monitor, *I* almost passed out, but that's neither here nor there.

My all time favorite cardiac nursing story, though, is the lady in Mobitz II that we had to hook up to the temporary pacer after she had a 6 second pause. She giggled every time it went off. Weirdest thing I ever saw. Glad she wasn't yelping, though. 🙂

I think it was under one of the listed topics. As well as non-mendelian inheritance (also known as cytoplasmic inheritance, i.e. mitochondria are maternal).

I only spend a couple minutes on both.

Anyways, I'm getting a little sleepy. I think it's time to call it a night. Good luck with 9 tomorrow BB. VR kicked me deep in the seminiferous tubules.

I like your pic, House is awesome.

Anyway, my flight for Melbourne leaves in the morning so I'll probably do alittle studying tomorrow night at the hotel, but none on Friday. Friday is my sightseeing, taking it easy day before the test. *breathe calmly* This thing'll be over before we know it.

Giggling? I yelped so much on the transcutaneous pacer that I had to be sedated. 😳

I have a headache today that I can't get rid of. 🙁 Usually some combination of caffeine, advil, or tylenol will help but not this one. I haven't tried the migraine medicine yet because it doesn't feel like a migraine and I don't want to waste those pills.

This sucks. 😡

But on a good note - there has been LOTS of peeing in the potty today (and I'm not talking about mysef). :clap:

sometimes that happens to me, and i try every other type of pill but not the migraine meds...then when it's been almost half a day and no relief, i finally take a migraine pill and it's better within an hour. usually then i think, ok, next time when this happens, i'll just take the migraine pill right away. 🙂

Ha, NFL blows college football out of the water. You can't even make a comparison. So many garbage players in college football with very little skills. Put up the worst NFL team against the best college team and the college guys will get their asses handed to them--everytime.

lol that's kind of obvious, isn't it? The NFL is made up of players making millions of dollars because they were the best in college, and nobody would ever deny that the nfl has better players 🙂 Saying NFL is better than college football because the players are more skilled is like saying a 2006 Dodge Viper is a better car than a 1965 Ford Mustang Shelby simply because the viper is faster

I like college because it's about connecting with your school, pride, and tradition. 😀

I just rather watch football where the players are the best of the best. Things I can't see everyday and players that are just incredible at what I do. Similiar to why I prefer college football over high school and high school over pee wee. As long as there is something in the same field (i.e. basketball, football, motor racing), I'll just gravitate to where the best of the best is to see the people with the most skills. My roommate from last year is like you. He doesn't watch pro football because of the money and less tradition as college football. Oh well. 😛

my college football team has been undefeated since 1997! :wow:




(don't tell anyone, but we haven't had a football team since 1997 also)

I mean, don't get me wrong, I LOVE the NFL as well. I am a huge Eagles fan.

I am just a huge fan of any sport that's rich in traditions. Things like the 12th Man ( 😉 at Ana) Jump around ( 😉 at Molly) the Grove and other great tailgates, Penn State's plain uniforms......those are the things that I think make college football awesome, not necessarily the skill of the players as compared to professionals.

I will agree though, that there is nothing like watching Jerry Rice dive for a 60 yard bomb while being triple-teamed 🙂

Don't get me wrong either! lol I still watch college football, too. Just teams from the state of FL and I have to support my Gators! 😀 I just prefer NFL to college, not dismiss it like my friend does. Glad to see you watch both. 🙂
