Shaken Up

I have quite a bit to write about lately, but right now I am going to tell you all about what happened to me today.

I started my summer session of clinicals at a clinic on Maryland Pkwy and Vegas Valley today. It is right down the street from Sunrise Hospital. So far I really like the people that work there and even though they have really old machines, I like that I will know how to use any machine after this. I decided to go to lunch somewhere since we have an hour, but really had to go to the bathroom. So, I pulled into a 7-11 on Sahara and Maryland Pkwy and noticed a man lying on the ground at the front of the store. I put my car in park and as I got out I noticed there was a puddle of blood by the man's head. I yelled and asked a lady walking into the store if anyone had called 911 about this man. She finally looked over and noticed him and ran in to get them to call. I immediately called 911 myself and ran over to the guy. He was lying on his back and blood was coming from his head, his ear and he was foaming at the mouth. His eyes were open but he was not talking so I just kept encouraging him to breath and told him someone was on their way to help. He was choking on his spit and eventually threw up. I tried to wipe it away with some towels and I didn't want to turn him on his side in case he had a head or neck injury. I began crying right as the ambulance showed up. I went inside the 7-11 and washed my hands and started crying even harder. I went outside and filled out a police report and told them what I saw. I had blood on my scrubs so I went back to the clinic and asked them if I could go home. I came home and took a nap, but still felt like crap afterward. I can't stop thinking about this man and what I saw. How many people passed by him and did nothing? How long was he lying there before I pulled up? Who was this man and did he have anyone? I just feel shaken up still...

70's Murder Mystery Party!

Megan Miller and I decided to throw a murder mystery party on Saturday. She has had this game since high school, but didn't remember anything about the characters. There were 8 characters in the game, so we had to be limited on who we chose to join us for the party. I was Chaka Moon and Megs was Angina Palpatory. I wore Mom's bridesmaid dress from Aunt Toni's wedding! All the names were a play on words. We did a four course meal in between each part of the game. First, we introduced our characters. Then we ate fondue cheese with bread and vegetables. We played round 1, which gave us more clues about what each character had to do with the murder. Then, we ate salad and garlic bread. Round 2 gave us more clues about the characters. We then ate baked zita, that Megs made and it was delicious! Round 3 we began questioning who the murderer may have been. For dessert we had fondue chocolate and cheescake. Then, in round 4 we found out who the murderer was... ME!!! I had no idea that I was the murderer until the end just like everyone else. Apparantly I married the man who was murdered a few weeks before and told him I had had his baby. It was not really his baby and when he found out he wanted to annul our marriage. Well, I was not having that! So, I killed him for all his money. It was a very racey game, but really fun!
