Today was a plain old bad day.

A little trick I learned from a few of the instructors is that if you turn down the volume, it eliminates some static on some of the dictations. Of course, a problem this poses is that I can't hear when everyone is home; even when Jack is being really good he's still talking and singing so it makes it really hard to hear. Sometimes I have to abandon a report and work on it again during nap time and move on to the next report. Today, I had to move on to 3-4 different ones before I could hear anything. It was one report after another, a 2-D echocardiogram, a wound-care report, that lady from the first batch that I couldn't' understand. It felt like the odds were all against me. I had one of those days that the experienced MTs remember so fondly=)

But, I guess I wouldn't really know a good day unless I had days like today to compare it to. Like Scarlett O'Hara said "Afterall, tomorrow is another day."
