Today I did not do much. I didn't have patho class for some reason, maybe Veteran's Day, I don't know. So I stayed at home. I really can't even remember what I did. I know I was out with the animals some. But my mom got home at around 3 pm, and I practiced my head-to-toe assessment that I'd have to do tomorrow on her. She also brought me an Arby's Reuben, so that was yummy.

I had work still, so I went to that at 6 pm, and it was alright. It went by fast enough, I had nine transports total. My first one was from dialysis to IRF, which I had never been to, so I asked the people at dialysis, and it's inpatient rehabilitation on the fourth floor, so I got that done. I had another weird request later on that said MRI to neuro, so I went down to the second floor MRI and no one was there, so I went to the basement MRI on the B elevator to look there. I had just been there for the first time earlier in my shift because Tyler said they were using that MRI machine. Some janitor guy asked what I was doing and I said I had a request from MRI, and he said there wasn't anyone down here. So I went back up to the second floor MRI and this lady found me and asked what I was doing. I said I had a request and we tried knocking on the door. After a minute or so, someone opened it and it was this Colombian guy who said he was repairing the system. So then we went to see if the request meant CT instead of MRI, so we went to the CT people (Stan and some girls) and they said no. So I called ER because the request was actually put in by them, and they said the patient I was looking for was there. So it was ER the whole time and they put in MRI instead of ER. Wow. But other than that, it was a quick shift. They also had little pastry things, so I took one of those from the breakroom.

I went to McDonald's afterwards and got a free four piece nugget, but they actually gave me six. So that was awesome. Maybe because I was nice to them, always be nice to service workers. Then I drove to Nana's and on my way, I saw the northern lights. My dad had sent me a picture earlier when I was at work, and I actually went outside at work to look, but I didn't see them. But on my way to Nana's, there they were. And they were very visible, the other time they were here, a year ago or so, you could really only see them through the camera with Apple's night mode. So that was really cool. I didn't do much at Nana's, I think I just watched YouTube and played Fortnite until going to bed.

So today was boring, I didn't do anything much until work. But the auroras were cool and my extra nuggets were good. 4/10.
