A little Updato

So settled in on my first real day of work on my own in the private clinic.

Kinda Nice, Nice to treat younger, more talkative, vibrant patients who have been a joy to talk to for the most part.

Some however very demanding.

I do lots of manual work and spend at least an hour with each pt.

3 cancellations, helped a little in terms of time management but hurt the shallow pockets.

so in all I saw 6 patients and I worked about 11 hours, 12 factoring commute......the hourly rate just dropped to crap levels :(

But whatever It should be able to get me bye, that and the other job, Not really ready to bust out the long work week but ain't no time like the present.

From a few of my Patients some good interesting advice.

1) Big Mama Boars do exist and they are very mean very aggressive and do not fear the human, "when I bike with like 6-8 people and we came around a bend and saw one-we went the other way!"

2) I like to swim in a few areas near Ala Moana Park, the water is murky because a lot of people move sand and there is a sand bar there.....

2b) I like to swim at the far edge of Ala Moana Park (magic island) near where the fishing boats come in, and the water is very deep quickly and very murky.

what do these stories have in common you might ask?

well murky sandy water + fishing boats dragging bloody cargo = sharks.

I was told never swim where I was swimming...ah cest la vie, what you don't know can't hurt you.....Now I can't even go in the shower without looking around.

So I've been warned...she was like "no one swims over there"....."but I saw some people swimming?" "yeah the fishing boats pass right by there and the sharks follow them all the way in."

So she told me about the shark cage adventure, which i plan on doing, 20 minutes in a steel cage of death.

10-15 footers close by...hammerheads and tigers.

I'm in for that, I'm not into the murky water so much....


Gotta go to work, sound funny to me as well :)

stay tuned I have like 40 pics sitting on the side here that need to go in.....of note Judd and the GingerAss Pool
