Officially Legit Posted on Sunday, October 4, 2009 |

Got my RN card and certificate in the mail. It's all happening.

Weekend has been a little slow, but I did manage a swim in the ocean yesterday. You the know the feeling when you drink really cold water or submerge in freezing water: your chest tightens, heaves even and almost paralyzes you. Almost had this reaction but the water where I dove in was less than 2 feet deep, so standing right back up quickly quelled this feeling. Plus, having a sweatshirt, sun, and a 10 minute walk home help raise my core body temp right back to normal.
When I am not risking hypothermia, I am attempting to explore neighborhoods of San Diego one week at a time. Why not start with my own, Pacific Beach? A brief sampling of one day of exploring (not nearly done yet)

Breakfest Burrito at Kono's. Plus a great book and people watching on the pier. Almost as good, if not better than Bodo's on the Corner.

the mural is right near my bank. it's nice to know john lennon inspires others.

obligatory beach scene

a lonely chair.

this is only the tip of the iceberg of PB, more endeavors to be documented soon.
