2. "Kid"
3. "Nurse!" This is what I get called when someone is trying to get my attention by yelling "nurse" from their room when they see me walk by.
4. "Sweet Baby"- this one came from an elderly southern gentleman, and was actually quite endearing. He'd fit it in to one sentence at least three times.
5. "Hey You"
6. "Kels"
7. "Sister" This must be a Montana thing, because everybody at work refers to everybody as "sister."
8. "Chelsea" Oh I hate this one!!
9. "Babe" This one came from a lady who was dying for more pain pills and thought maybe if she buttered me up I'd overdose her on Percocet, ha, not happening.
10. "Sweety"
11. "My Washington Girl" This one came from the nicest patient, who knew I was from WA, and not a Montana native. He was the sweetest guy, I would have adopted him!
12. "Honey"
13. "Angel" This is quite common, when I'm the one providing relief to someone in extreme pain, or maybe they really think I am an angel when they have enough pain meds on board. You just never know.
14. "Pam" One night a patient called me this all night, even though I introduced myself, and wrote my name on his whiteboard. Hey, it's cool.
15."Love" As in "thanks, Love."
Wonder what I'll be called tonight....

I couldn't keep myself from laughing at "Pam"...hilarious! And I hate when people call me Chelsea too!
P.S. I'll send you my address soon!
I am off tomorrow for a bit and I checked one last time to see if you had posted something new. And yes, by golly, you did! Always a treat. Maybe that famous granola recipe could be posted on the blog or is it too secret? :)
Okay I'm starting to get curious about this granola recipe! And "Pam" cracked me up too. Great post! And I'm not sure about "sister" being a MT thing?? Maybe it's a your-city thing.
I've started a granola craze!! You are either thanking me or hating me right now :)
I like "Pam"...ha! internal giggling continues....that was kinda like my professor in hygiene school who kept calling me "Rhonda" even after she looked directly at my name tag and I had been her student for over 2 years! ha! Some people.
P.S. you really need to switch days so you can come hang out on the 18th of Sept!!!
