first day.

so, let's call my preceptor "the dude" - i actually do call him that. not to his face, but when talking about him with my colleagues. i can't tell you why we call him that, b/c that would require me telling you his real name. and i'm not sure how much i can get away with saying without the HIPAA monsters coming out of the closet and biting me.

so anyway, "the dude" forgot that he told me to meet him on the "a" level of the hospital. so i waited for about 10 minutes before springing into action and finding someone who knew where i could find him. the good news is that he only forgot me one other time today.

so, the day went along swimmingly. my schedule is a little confusing, as we travel between three different locations. but really, it'll be pretty good. he's a good teacher and i'll learn loads from him.

i only work about 5 hrs today. in by 8, out by 3:30 with a two hr lunch. but tomorrow, i have to be in at 7, and right now i'm exhausted. i'm a little afraid of what a full day work will do to me, being this tired after a half day.

perhaps i'll have time for a good story or two tomorrow. for now, i must sleep. i have to get up in the hour of 5 tomorrow. curses.
