the flu season is in full swing

that's right my friends. influenza is running amuck. 3 out of every 4 faces that darken the ER door way are complaining of flu like symptoms and most are testing positive for influenza A...whatever that means. i've been lucky enough so far in spite of some of the patrons best efforts to refrain from being infected myself. my advice if you're feeling fluish...drink plenty of fluids, take some over the counter pain reliever, and stay the hell out of the hospital so you don't catch something you really don't want like staph. sheesh.

now for more pressing matters. if there are any lawyers out there, could you check the current legislature for assaulting a coworker? i'm fairly certain duct tape doesn't count as a deadly weapon...at least as long as i only tape her mouth and not her nose. granted blocking off her airway is awfully tempting. if you can't breathe, you certainly can't talk and to date she's done more than enough of that. the talking itself might not be so bad if she didn't attempt to pass herself off as "supernurse" whenever there's a doctor within ear shot and talk down to the rest of us b/c well frankly we're not from texas. little does she know i've been from texas before and people like her make me want to keep that a secret. stupid mouthy bitch.
