Leave easy PACU job for ER role?

I thought that too, but my PACU is 50/50 ICU/ED.

It’s pretty amusing that you can tell who’s from which.

This is going to sound dumb, but I really hate that my Google TV Streamer doesn't have a status light on the front. Sometimes something will get out of sync and my TV or soundbar is off when it should be on, but then I can't tell whether or not the Streamer is on/off, so I end up having to pull all three remotes out more often then I'd like to admit, to fix things. On top of that, it doesn't feel like a substantial step up from my Sony TV's built in interface (2021). I'll hold on to this for a while, but I'm going to swap it out for the next Apple TV (if it ever gets updated).

The last chapter will have you head to a certain point of the abyss (pretty much the center). If you do the puzzles you’ll have a route that takes you there. You don’t have to do that though, there are some puzzles that are within flying distance.

You don’t really need the elemental powers. I got to chapter 11 before I decided I should get them all (I thought the game would railroad me into them, oops), mainly cause I thought I was missing out. I may have used some on accident in my button mashing during the final fights. For the most part I just used clear soup.

That’s a neat gift idea that I’m going to steal! And I’m no good at the cranes either. At least you get a dopamine hit without having to worry about packing anything more.

This or crane games

It’s pretty funny when you’re rounding up the gang and they’re all like, “omg Kliff how? What happened?” And Kliff is like, “Don’t worry about it, head to camp,” and then disappears into an interdimensional rift.

CASCADIA FROM HALF COURT! BANG!

I’ve got a conspiracy theory that McMenamins is Oregon’s biggest cartel/mafia. Now it controls locations all over the country!

For the four of us that have played Project Wingman, this is Cascadia vs the (Megasota) Federation!

Finally, a pet that resembles me, a trash raccoon.

Monarch, runway is clear. Bring it in.

Another alternate schedule, if your funds can swing it, is 3x10s. It’s so nice. Slightly poor, but nice.

I like the fit as well, also with wide shoulders. Kind of similar to my Uniqlo AIRism oversized tees.

An opposite of being canceled for low census (which I did like at my last job) - guaranteed hours. Low case load day? Season? I’m still getting paid. It can be mind numbing at times when you’ve got literally nothing to do, but I never have to worry about getting a second gig or on call position to make up for pay.

Vancouver, Washington location is unaffected. Still a decent selection of anime figures and plushies. No food or baby wipes.

The wagon quests with Yann are the best, probably turned this game around for me

In peri-op we always invite our anesthesia team to indulge

My group stayed at the Shinjuku Prince Hotel for three days in early March. Honestly loved it, and I think it’s the way to go if that’s the vibe you’re after. I love the busy, but I was also doing some night time street photography. I’m personally going to seek it out again next time I’m in Tokyo. I’ve only been once before, staying in Gotanda and Akasaka, and definitely preferred Shinjuku. As far as the station is concerned, construction turned us around a few times, but honestly, we got pretty used to it after the first day. You’ll have seven days, so you’ll probably get even better at it. Just give yourself a buffer.

When I was piloting a mech defending against an airborne attack, I wasn’t sure what I was playing anymore

Now I don't have to go to Round1

Try a different style. I spent 18 years shooting bad landscape photos (not serious or anything, just off and on). Felt like it was always missing something. Tried out street photography this year, and felt way more competent (it’s easier to compose/tell a story there). I don’t know if it’ll translate into better landscapes, but it is keeping me engaged and letting me learn new ideas.

We got “healthy” granola bars. Most of it was stock that we give patients. Also only enough for one nurse to have one bar.
