Today I went to the pharmacy where my mother works and practised being a pharmacist. By some sad coincidence, all the places that I have worked at have had the same, fairly uncommon, easy to use dispensing program. The program at my mother's pharmacy is very common and also fairly complicated to use. Ahhhh DOS. It also contains grammar that makes me grind my teeth. For example when you get a repeat prescription that was originally dispensed at another pharmacy, you must type in the code U for UNORIGINAL. Hello? Unoriginal? What is that?!
I also did some driving and made a batch of gingerbread with my brother for him to take to a uni do. See it's not all lounging around being voluntarily unemployed.
All this exertion was topped off with a night of tv watching. 7:30 - Supernanny (taped from last night). 8:30 - was going to watch a show about kids from "one of Australia's worst schools" hiking the Kokoda trail but this was pulled at the last minute so I watched Operatunity which was great. 9:30 - Medical Investigation. Well I like it anyway, even though a lot of the medical content is er... odd. "Hmmm we have a town full of kids with an inflammatory disorder. So far we have treated them all with analgesics and hot compresses". Have you not heard of steroids? Or any other drugs commonly used for unidentified inflammatory conditions?!
