You can also get a sore throat with the flu which is expected to be very bad this year.
Patient came in with sore throat. While waiting for rapid Strep test result we glanced back at the Covid-19 RAT result: positive. Reminder that masking in health care makes sense, if you don’t want everyone in your waiting room to go home sick, your staff to get sick, and physicians to get sick.

Trump's Education Dept wants to 'declassify' nursing as a professional field. In its proposal, the department is changing definitions of professional degree programs & excludes nursing altogether. Changing the definition blocks nursing students from federal loans & loan forgiveness programs👇
Opinion | Declassifying Nursing As 'Professional' Is a Grave Mistake
The DoE's updated definition is dangerous for clinicians and patients alike

You mean the company that's currently being struck by its workers and the company that's currently being boycotted because of its terrible DEI policy rollbacks? Why not just call this the Chocolate Mint Racist Scab Frostie?
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

I'm teaching until 7:30 tonight and I just spilled my late lunch/early dinner of mac and cheese all over the place. At least I ate the apple first? Wish me strength making it through 2 more classes.

Interview went okay. I felt like I was repeating myself and stumbling over my words more than I have in previous interviews, but it is what it is. Hopefully will move on to the next round!

HEB delivered a brisket queso dip to me by mistake and I have no idea what to do with it (I don't eat meat). They did refund me, which was nice, but I do not need this large thing of food I won't eat.

I am at the airport, at the gate, and ready to be done with other people. There are people on the phone and families and just plain PEOPLE EVERYWHERE and I am ready to be done with being surrounded by talking strangers.

Spent some time today at the Duane White Feather exhibit at the Walker Art Museum today. The rest of the museum was good, but her work was AMAZING. Wanted to buy the book, but it was too heavy. Heading back to the hotel after I sit for a bit.

I'm on Tumblr again, and more than I am here these days. I am desperately searching for people to talk about the weewoo show with. It kept me sane while writing my dissertation (which has been approved! woohoo!). Buck and Tommy have consumed my fannish life. I have written, and plan to write more.

Just got four vaccines: Covid, flu, pneumonia, and RSV. My arms already hurt; I’m ready for a miserable weekend if need be.

Heard back from my quant committee member yesterday (and he finally signed with his first name, so I guess now that I have a doctorate he considers me worthy), & I just sent off the final revision of my dissertation! Woohoo!
