Easter Egg Hunt

Here's some incentive today to eat healthy and exercise...
Yesterday at work I had a very large female patient. I'd guess probably 300-350 pounds and very short. I really did like her though, and we had a lot of 'fun' trying to maneuver her size. She had many Jackson-Pratt drains (these are little tubes with a suction ball at the end then suctions out excess blood in cavities where the person had surgery) and I decided I better go empty them. Well, finding these drains weren't the easiest thing in the world. I had to lift up folds, move flab from one side to another side, and dig for them. She chuckled and said, "Hey! Looks like you get an Easter egg hunt!!" Oh lucky me.
Only 48 hours left until my finals are over...oh what a happy day that will be. Then I get to move into my friends apartment and sleep in a quiet place and use a bathroom that isn't a stall like the ones at malls or football games. I start full time at work next week and I signed up for some extra shifts since almost all of my friends will either be home or at Lake Mead. The extra shifts are night shifts though...so no one call me in the morning starting in May. I will probably be working close to 70 hours next week (I can hear Mom gasping from here) so hopefully I will make it! Woohoo for money though!
Who's excited for the Bachelor tonight!! I am!!
And can someone tell me when SYTYCD premieres?? I tried finding it...but I think Laura's response with the answer will be faster haha.

I'm not excited about the Bachelor, but I'm excited that you're getting a lot of practice at moving mounds of flab. I intend to provide you with an abundance of Easter Egg hunt opportunities in my dotage.
