It should not be too bad, I am off that day, and I did not write the report, I only transported the guy.

Hell, I never could count well!

I have naver made anyone do that...then I have to make sure I can keep track of them without messing it up.

As for the anesthesiologist - last time I was put under, I ended up cussing out the poor guy, I was sooooo out of it.

I think that'd be a good idea.

I'm doin good today. I got a ton of homework I gotta do for my GED class though. Oh boy.

Oh and the other day I moved the alternator drive belt up a pulley on my truck. Previous position (center pulley out of three on the crank) was a bit loose with alternator adjusted all the way out on its bracket, on the frontmost and largest pulley, it's just enough to where it can get nice and tight. Not too tight, but just right. And now with that and the PS/water pump belt tight and a different PS pump, my truck's actually QUIET under the hood! :P
