Party! (aka dude-fest)

We had another party this past weekend and it was SO much fun! Totally random crowd, but it was great. AND there were so many guys! Usually when we have a party it ends up being all girls except for DJ and our friend Matt, but this time it was a total dude fest! We had about 25 people, only 8 of them were girls. Tons of cute single guys, 4 of whom are doctors? Awesome. ;)

Here are some of my fave pics from the weekend...

The ridiculousness / silliness pretty much sums up the entire party


Everyone loves jello shots. Just look at the expression on Dave's face!


Landon loves them so much, he tried to sneak some out and save them for later.


Georgetown's Finest Interns.


LOVE this pic. I burst out laughing every time I see it.


Approx 10:30am the next day: Mimosas.

St. Patty's Day Highlights

Carbombs at 4pm. Obv.


Approx 5pm: already getting silly.


6 Bles nurses!


Roomies!


Dave had a little bit of a rough afternoon. This is what you get when you work a night shift, sleep for only 3 hours, dont eat, then start drinking.


Only cool people wear sunglasses at 10pm while out at the bar


I love this picture. Silly urologists... :-p


I love us.


Starting the drinking day at 4pm, managing to not blackout or get sick, AND not lose anything? Not too shabby. Although I did call it a night relatively early (11:30pm) and I did almost lose my cell phone -- almost. But whatev. All in all, I'd say it was quite the successful Irish holiday. :) Hope everyone else's was good too!

Orienting

My boss just emailed me asking me to orient a new staff member. I was just talking to Caroline about having to precept a new grad and how I dont know how good I'd be at it. (Typically they give new grads a preceptor who has been there for a year, therefore that would mean that I could potentially be precepting a brand new nurse when we get the wave of new grads in July). Thankfully this new member is a traveler so its not like I'll be training a new grad, I'll be training an experienced nurse, but still.... I'm pretty nervous about it. But my boss wouldnt ask me to do it unless she thought I could, right? mreh..

Almost spring time!

I actually dont mind winter and the cold. I love snuggling with a blanket, drinking a glass of wine and reading a good book. And I think that snow is beautiful and so much fun. But I am so excited that warm weather is fast approaching! Cherry blossoms, sundresses, walks in G-town, laying by the pool, reading on the balcony, barbecues, the waterfront, its all so happy. :) Also on my happy list at the moment:

• sunshine
• the current 62 degree weather
• wearing flip flops for the first time this year
• wine nights
• finally having furniture in our apt
• Yankee Candle: "Garden Sweet Pea"
  
• Oreos & peanut butter
• scrapbooking
• tax refunds!!
• working day shifts and having a normal sleep pattern
  
• T-Revs & Rostopher
• cute pics of boys and their 1 year old neice (siiiigh...)
• my little cousins

look at those big brown eyes!


testing out the bday presents


yummm cupcakes


shhh, dont tell anyone, but he's my favorite...


Hope everyone is having a good week so far!! :)

March!

A lot of the snow has melted, which I totally was not expecting to happen until like April since we had SO much of it, but alas, the wintery wonderland is fading. Today it is 50 degrees and somewhat sunny.... and tomorrow its going to snow. Silly weather patterns. Anyway, here are a few more snow pics that I never got a chance to post.

almost as tall as the mailbox!
