Paperless

My electric toothbrush stays on for a predetermined amount of time, about two minutes, I think. So, I was brushing my teeth and sat down to watch TV to entertain myself. It seemed like way more than two minutes went by.

I got up, walked into the bathroom and glanced in the mirror. I was brushing with an ordinary toothbrush. I am truly losing my mind.

It is with that kind of brain that I went to a computer class today. My hospital is going "paperless" next month, so we have to learn to do everything on the computer. Usually, I'm a fast learner, so it is hard for me to accept the role of the class dunce. And, I have to go back tomorrow for more punishment. I envy the nurses who were able to retire before all of this nonsense started.

I'm in that awkward age bracket, too old to be comfortable with computers and too young to retire. I've heard of doctors who say they are going to hire secretaries to help them with their computer entries. Too bad that is not an option for me. I'll get over it, but in the meantime, I just want to curl up in a ball and sleep for a few days.
