Great Scott!


So, I recently bought this fabulous trilogy and although the future in #2 looks sadly like a more punk version of the 80s, I have to say it might not be that far off, seeing as the 80s are back now, and will probably make another appearance in say, 7 more years. I also decided that I am a big fan of Huey Lewis and his soundtrack additions. I just wanted to give a shout out to Back to the Future and my favorite celeb that I have had on a plane... Christopher Llyod. GREAT SCOTT!!

Let's hear it for the CNAs!!

I have spent the last couple of days as a CNA in a SNF. (To those of you who don't speak medicalease... that is a certified nurses assistant in a skilled nursing facility). Well, I am not a CNA, but I assisted them. I changed bed linens, gave showers to residents, dressed them, combed their hair, spritzed them with perfume, gave them their "nourishments" ( that is code for mid-morning, afternoon and bedtime snacks!), served them lunch and dinner and just provided conversation. I had a great time and I definitely have a new appreciation for those workers who do the majority of the work and get paid the least amount of money. I guess it just goes to show that until we walk a mile in someone's shoes, we really don't know how hard their job is or is not. So, let's hear it for the CNAs!!!
P.S. I just thought this guy was cute, so I put his picture in here... he he he he

Megan's in the O.C.



Well, its true! I am officially a Californian! I moved to Huntington Beach, CA about 3 weeks ago and I am loving it down here in the CA sun!! I said buh bye to the airlines for now and I am currently working for a Healthcare Company here in the O.C. (Yes, I had to throw that in, because I am still mad that show went off the air...na na na na na... na na na na na...CAliFORNia!!) Anyway.... I digress.


I moved into a small house here in the HB and my roomies are great and I live a mere 4 blocks from the beach in a cute little house with a front yard, back yard, cute patio, garage and a BBQ. You know, the necessities. It is so nice! I love the weather and the change and just a chance at a new start and a fresh social scene. I do miss all of my peeps back in UT, but it is always nice to meet some new friends.


So, I am working, or working it out here in CA. And, you are all invited down to visit and sleep on my two couches, but maybe you should wait until I know how to get around a little better. Right now I pretty much have the routes to church, work and the grocery store down. Okay, and the movie theater (are you even surprised?). So, if I veer off the path at all, there is a problem and I am lost. Just a head's up. But, I DO know where the beach is! 4 BLOCKS THAT A WAY!! Come on down and bring your swimsuit and lotion!


Walk it out....
