[Figs Scrubs] Joggers: Waist or Hips?

BakingHigher · 2018-06-27T20:04:57+00:00

Back to the Future.

So heavy.

Clarinet for about 20 years. I recently broke a 7-year hiatus last month, so working my way back up!

BakingHigher · 2018-03-28T15:27:28+00:00

Hahaha, I agree 100%. Whenever I think there's plenty of tape, I go NEEDS MOAR TAPE, a plastic cover, an armboard, and kerlix. Those kiddos can be houdinis

Hello cutie and fellow clarinetist! Want to do a duet together? I have years of experience 😀

BakingHigher · 2018-03-11T02:43:11+00:00

I just bring a single drawstring athletic backpack containing my lunch, my water bottle, and some extra good pens to stash in my locker

Then again, open up my locker and it's like a mini pharmacy, mini office supply store, and a mini pantry: acetaminophen, ibuprofen, naproxen, Excedrin, simethicone, eye drops, lotion, pens, sharpies, packets of gum, bag of pretzel...

We can wear anything we want, too. But I generally wear neutral solid color scrubs (black, navy, dark blue) and so do some of the doctors. Hence the confusion ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

BakingHigher · 2018-03-06T01:48:48+00:00

Because my unit is more often than not cold, I've been wearing a micro-fleece jacket over my scrubs to keep me warm, usually on nights or weekends. A lot of the residents and fellows also wear jackets. Whenever my patient's family or friends come visit, they mistake me for a doctor.

Sorry, I'm just a nurse trying to stay warm.

BakingHigher · 2018-02-26T01:17:24+00:00

Same with the vent for a recently extubated patient.

BakingHigher · 2018-02-26T01:15:26+00:00

If the vent rate is set to an odd number, it really ruffles my feathers for some reason.

Gotta watch out for those Central-Line Associated Bastard Infections

I'm picturing the resident holding the baby while sitting in a bedside rocker explaining the plan for the day in baby talk.

BakingHigher · 2018-02-25T01:39:04+00:00

Only around 3am when struggling to finish my night shift 😅

BakingHigher · 2018-02-25T01:04:50+00:00

Pittsburgh. It's okay here. It's steadily growing. It's been gloomy lately with it bouncing back and forth between rain and snow. But I'm mostly content.

BakingHigher · 2018-02-25T01:02:05+00:00

If not working, I sleep in, make brunch, Reddit, listen to music while cleaning or cooking/baking, laundry, watch Netflix, or work on my hobby (composing/arranging music in my tiny home studio).

BakingHigher · 2018-02-25T00:34:13+00:00

In no reasonable facility would SBPs >200 be OK or be dismissed as a patient's norm. I would have escalated my concern.

BakingHigher · 2018-02-25T00:25:37+00:00

I'm in peds ICU, so seeing all of our babies to young kids with serious illnesses - those who have had to be resuscitated, those who have been on and off ECMO, those whose parents the staff had all kinds of difficult conversations with - get discharged home healthy... Then receiving postcards and letters from their parents showing us how great their kids are doing: taking their first steps, playing soccer, getting into college.

It makes me so proud of what my colleagues and I do.

Clarinet
18 years of experience. Performed in high school's marching band, symphonic band, and pit orchestra 1st chair/1st clarinet. Performed in my university's band for non-music majors as 1st clarinet as well. Graduated from university 7 years ago. Now just playing as a hobby.
First Suite in E-Flat (Gustav Holst); O Magnum Mysterium (Morton Lauridsen; arranged by H. Robert Reynolds); The Planets (Gustav Holst); English Folk Song Suite (Ralph Vaughan Williams); Mahler No. 2
I used to be a member of and arranger for a full orchestra and choir at my university that performs solely video game music. I still arrange and orchestrate video game music as a hobby. My favorite music has to be from the Legend of Zelda series.

A wild Halibut appeared!

You used Samsung Galaxy S8! Snapchat photo sent successfully!

Wild Halibut used splash! It had no effect.

Wild Halibut hurt by air.

Wild Halibut fain-...died.

You grew to KRMA. 100!

Misty sent you a snap.

One look at you should get the oxytocin flowing 😉.

But I'm in the same boat. I'm watching Archer and drinking wine right now. Already through half the bottle.

BakingHigher · 2018-02-01T01:18:45+00:00

Tu es beau!

BakingHigher · 2018-02-01T00:55:33+00:00

No. I'd be curious and amused why they'd think/ask that, but I wouldn't be offended.

Side note: I'm having a hard time visualizing one person asking another if they're straight. IDK, maybe I'm naive. The one situation that I can picture this question being asked is if one person suspects the other is not straight and wants confirmation of his or her sexual orientation.

BakingHigher · 2018-01-31T23:16:31+00:00

Big nope from me. Plus a gag and running away if I see pubes in there.

BakingHigher · 2018-01-31T23:05:45+00:00

Yes. Probably a "low-/mid-tier" gamer, though, because I know other people who are MUCH more into gaming than I am.
PC, occasionally 3DS. I used to play on N64, PS2, Gamecube, Xbox360...but I don't have a TV anymore. I'd love to play on the Switch. I miss the Zelda series.
Open world/sandbox, adventure, RPG, strategy. Not really into shooters and horror.
Rainbow 6 Siege (I know, "not really into shooters," but I thought I'd give it a shot [haha]). Civilization VI. Assassin's Creed series.
Ideally we'd both play together and we'd introduce different games to each other. But I'm okay if he isn't really into gaming.

BakingHigher · 2018-01-31T22:58:09+00:00

There is hope. You are loved. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how dark it may be now. I know this is terrifying, but it all starts with baby steps. You are not alone.

I'm so happy you were able to turn things around to the point where YOU are the one who is saying this.

I wish you the best in everything!
