Nothing Like a One Night Stand

There is nothing like a one night stand. The best thing about a one night stand, I think, is the fact that it costs you nothing, while a hooker is some big bucks there. Not to mention the perfume is a little better. A hooker is dirty, and well, the one night stand has a better chance of being clean haha. I suppose it’s a good thing I have standards. I met a girl last night, about the age of 24, at a local bar. Her name is Caleigh, but I'll spell it as Cali from now on because that’s how she signs it. I find it ironic that we live in California and that is how she signs her name. She is actually damn beautiful… she left me her number. I can't really remember that much from the night except how provocative she looked in my tank top and the fact my wallet was short 50 bucks from all the drinks I bought us (Well... I hope that’s where the money went!).

Today wasn't bad; I worked early 5:30 until 11. The morning is always the most boring because there is barely anyone who comes in. However, today we had only one good case that was interesting. A woman, "Josephine" came in with an abdominal laceration. She had quite a lot of blood loss and we were worried whether she'd go into shock. Her daughter told us that she impaled herself with a kitchen knife when she slipped on a wet floor. Ladies and gentlemen: don’t put away dishes after you mopped the floor. Thankfully, no internal organs were damaged; there was minor surgery for the muscle tissue and some nice stitches to fix up the cut. She'll have a nice scar to share with her grandchildren.

I took another trip to Paul again today; I only had 15 minutes to speak with him after work because he was due for a colonoscopy. He told me that he’s been in more pain lately, I feel bad for him. I talked to his nurses and ordered them to give him extra care. I've only known Paul for two days but he feels like a best friend to me. Our short, but meaningful conversations are like small blasts from the past, and a good confession source. It's so easy to be captivated into a story of how life seemed so much simpler, easy, and fun than today.

I'm leaving in about 20 minutes to catch up with Cali again. We are going to go out to dinner to meet each other this time. It should be interesting, but I'll fill you in tomorrow.
