I spent a lot of time banging on the snooze bar this morning, I had a really hard time sleeping last night, and I knew that I didn't *really* have to get up that early, anyway.... I did some reviewing, and suddenly it was time to go take the test. I didn't have any trouble finding the place at all, and I signed in and started taking the test at 10:41. And I was done and outta there at 11:22.... So, was it hard? I don't know. It was multiple choice, and tricky multiple choice at that. And the very first question froze me. "Which scan best demonstrates the omentum?" Well, hell. I marked that question to return to later, I really had a brain fart, and I was afraid that would set the pace... but it didn't. And, of course, halfway through the test, omentum suddenly had meaning for me. There were a lot of things on it that I didn't specifically study for, but I think that I did OK on most of them, except for the parts that are automatic on our machine, and those were a little harder, and in some cases, absolute guesswork. All in all, though, I feel good about it... mostly, If I don't think too much about it, anyway. 13:13... In fact, they reminded me of the pot pies that Mom and I would There are all sorts of things that I should get done this afternoon... I briefly considered going in to work, but I decided against that... but I'm mentally and physically exhausted. 21:38... And, the more that I think about it, I'm not gonna be surprised if I flunked that test. I'm fairly confident that I passed it, but not *that* confident... and, like I said, I haven't really taken a test for thirty-five years, so what do I know about test-taking? When I finished the test, it said that I would be notified in four weeks, but the monitor lady said it would be more like ten days to two weeks. I think that I'll just forget about it until I get the results back, and then celebrate or whatever...
I just got back from having lunch with Karen, probably the last time that I'll ever eat at the BC/BS cafeteria. Since it was late and the food's almost all gone by 12:30, Karen ordered chicken pot pies to be saved back for us, and they were excellent.
buy when we first moved to Topeka, they were like 4 for a buck, and really, really good. Had to heat them up in the oven for 45 minutes of something like that. Beef, chicken, turkey and tuna.
So, when in doubt, take a nap. It worked pretty well, it did.
