sweet tooth

California Pizza Kitchen's Chocolate Banana Royale Cake = heaven. I'm not even that big of a chocolate cake fan but this was absolutely delicious. So moist and rich, but not too sweet, which was perfect. (I know, I'm such fat kid) Any other day, I would've taken one glance at the menu, seen the Red Velvet Cake dessert on their menu and been sold. Red Velvet is my faaaavorite. I'm talking, I'm 90% sure thats going to be my wedding cake, although this new cake poses some serious competition. And now, thanks to CPK and their heavenly dessert, I will probably get diabetes. :-p

Anyway, look it up. Try it. Love it.

what would you do?

One of my friends thinks she may be pregnant and she's pretty concerned about it, understandably. She's not in a relationship with the guy, they've just kinda been "hanging out" for a while but their status is undefined. More than anything, they're just occasional hookups I'd say. So she's not sure if she's going to keep the baby but that just got me thinking, what would I do? I'm Catholic and we all know where I should stand on the issue, but I had a minor scare in college and the first thing I thought was, 'there is no way I'm having a baby at 20'. But that was then, this is now. Sure, we're done with college, we all have jobs, somewhat financially stable, we're older, hopefully a little wiser, but me personally, I'm still not ready to have a baby. And neither are most of my friends. We all say we would never do it, but what if you were actually put in that situation? Would you really raise a baby on your own? OR, if you decide you're not gonna keep the baby, would you really be able to go through with it?

Anyway, like I said, my friend and this guy are not married. Hell, they're not even officially dating, which definitely makes the situation stickier. If they were married or even in a relationship, she may think differently about the situation. She's enjoying single life, going out, drinking, getting ridiculous on weekends, etc. -- your typical mid-20s lifestyle. :) So if she is in fact pregnant, she's pretty sure she's not going to keep it. But she doesnt know if she should still tell the father about it. There's the whole "what you dont know cant hurt you" mentality... But he has a right to know, I mean, he's the father. ...But what if he wants to keep it?

Heavy stuff. Granted, she doesnt know for sure if she is pregnant, so all her worrying could be for nothing, but it got us all thinking... Should she tell the father? ...What would YOU do in her situation?

night shift entertainment

Last night was a relatively calm, slow night shift (up until one patient went INSANE and started thrashing ans screaming. Seriously, i've never seen anything like it). During this slow night shift I found this lovely order written by our intern:



"cc" is no longer an appropriate term in the medical field; we now use "ml" instead. I'm assuming our pharmacy (pain in the ass that they are) made him write a clarification order and he decided to be a smart ass about it. LOVE IT. :)
