so who's on the floor?...

Today's a freaky Thursday... it should have been a throwback Thursday huh, but nah, we do not have that in the Kingdom. It is either you go out here smiling or freaking-out! And everyday is a deja vu, not a throwback!

But today is freaky in a different way...

So me and the Black Widow switched days, that is why I am here on the other side of the Kingdom with the Extraordinary People.

At 5am, I was surprised to see Black Widow in the floor... eh, I am pretty sure that I should be in the floor today. It turned out-- she was here to help as we are short-staffed... and she will be one of my Techs, freaky, LOL!

7am, the Iron Man arrived in a hurry, mumbling about how bad the traffic was from I15 to 91 to 55 to 405. Who wouldn't? She lived in the mountains LOL! A fashioned mountains anyways, with the biggest known casino in town.

And there were three of us RNs -- in the floor for the first time...how prolific!

or Epic???

Since we are missing one, I tried to message Sentinel to come in and bring us lunch as she is the only person missing and the Nautilus of Captain Nemo is set to submerge.

After the nth message and maybe she thought she won't be harmed to see us in the floor, she came and brought us their leftovers.

Ugh!

And there were the four of us -- in the break room... leaving the floor RN-less!

We were in the middle of getting loud when the big boss Nicky Fury caught us...

"So who is on the floor?"

A little later, the crowd of prolific people began to disperse... on to the Nautilus!

Sunday's child...

I may not have a fair face, but I am a Sunday child. Forty-something years ago, on a wee hours of a Sunday, my mother had a 10-pounder. I was born from an unfortunate situation of my parents who were in dire need to uproot themselves from the very place they called home since their childhood. Most of my siblings were born and grew up in the same hometown. So growing up in a very different environ caused havoc to some of my older siblings --- who are unable to see the tin line between leaving and living. On the other hand, I did not realize the difference between us and them (my older siblings) even they kept teasing me and the other two younger siblings "Moros". I remembered how I was schooled by my older siblings about the sun, the moon, the stars...and why the sky is way up high. I've learned how greed can cause you hunger and misery from the story of the monkey and the turtle . I even learned the eye-flipping story of the pin...

heads or tails...

What's the best part of a fish to chomp on? The head. Especially when its sinigang or tinola (cooked in soup base) or even grilled. Filipinos has a funny gusto of eating fish, we are used to cooking and serving a whole fish -- with all its head, tail, bones, and skin on! Which, I know most people in California would gape at a sight of it--- a whole fish! Gawk. Ande cooked dinner yesterday. She called me saying "saan ka na" (where are you now?) at 645pm, while I was cruising or actually sitting in the traffic of SR-55 and I-5N. She said she cooked dinner. Yes, that's how lucky I am! I have a rent-free place and a dinner to look forward to. As expected, the one in my soup bowl was a milkfish head... and so in Ande's bowl. I went back to the kitchen for seconds and found the same heads and some tails of the milkfish in the pot. Went back to the table, grabbed my eye glasses again as milkfish are really, really bony! ...

Refreshing...

While June was sitting in the lobby, I noticed her face is differently-colored. Her aura is as translucent as the light bulb behind her. Well, the monitor of the lobby camera is hidden in my station--- I see everyone and anybody who sets foot in the Kingdom. Two months ago, there were two bull-necked belligerent guys in my lobby as early as 5AM...I called the cops on them. When June was in the treatment area, I called her attention and told her how refreshing it is to see her smile like she's still playing with her bubble bath--- frothy and fizzy! "Oh yes! I was in the tub with the running water for 30 minutes!" she replied. Her CVC was removed recently... after one long year! She said when she was in the hospital for the removal procedure, she told the Surgeon "it's about time, it's been a year". She was not mad, in fact she was happy, in her mind--- "finally I can take a long shower". So June, tell me, what wi...

and so it goes...
