Too good NOT to share :)

This is taken from www.claytonaiken.comand includes a short writeup with photos on Clay's visit to Harlem, New York, just after receiving a Double Platinum award for Measure Of A Man on Good Morning America.

This article talks about what happened during his visit, where he read to a group of students as part of the school's Reading First programme.

This is an excellent piece. Very inspiring, and just makes us fans so proud of Clay. :D

Not much to post today. Just hanging out at home, with some errands to run later before the night shift begins. I've got THREE night duties this week! AAAAAAACCCKKKKK! Okay, it's unavoidable, 'cos people are going on leave, then switching rotations come Monday -- another MO and I are staying put, so it's only natural that we should do the night shift for the very last day. But still... it's tiring! I'm getting old.

One more week before we're "officially short". We're down from 21 to just 13 MOs starting November 3rd. No fun. 7 night shifts a month, minimum, and mostly afternoon shifts on other days. Don't ask me why the human resource department feels this is the right way to do things. If anything, the ER is the last place that should be subjected to manpower constraints. I mean, it's called the EMERGENCY room for a reason. If you're shorthanded, what happens then? Yeesh.

We had a small farewell dinner with some seniors from the A&E Department at The Rice Table, an Indonesian restaurant located within the International Building. The food is amazing, and I think I ate too much! If you haven't been there before, you simply must try it out. Those potato dumpling thingies are unbelievable. Not to mention the crispy tofu with some kind of sweet tangy sauce poured all over it, and the curry, etc. You get the idea. :)

Gotta get some work done. Maybe more later.
