please, please, please, let me get what I want

Spring break this week, so that's nice! Unfortunately, I'm actually at work from Monday to Thursday, but I also have a job interview for a day position in the ER on Tuesday, so.... fingers crossed! I'm kinda nervous, because it would mean getting to know a whole new group of co-workers and schedule and ways of doing things. I've only ever been a floor nurse, meaning I start with a certain group of patients and pretty much stay with that group for the duration of my shift. ER is the opposite. In and out.

I kinda really really want this job though. I want to get my hands in there, with some acute care stuff. I have a good 9 years (oh gah, how old am I?) of medical surgical floor nursing experience, and I love it, mostly because by the time patients get to me, they are not bleeding messes of yucky. ER, acute care.... they've always intimidated me, in that, they make me nauseous and slightly dizzy to think about. Did you know all the ER nurses start their own IVs, for example? I don't think I've done a single IV start in the last five years, at least.

Anyway.... fingers crossed!

Also: does anybody else get an unaccountable craving for fudge brownies once the spring time bulbs start to surface? Or is this just coincidence?
