I have a Date!!

I finally got my authorization to test from the ANCC last week and selected a date (in early August)! I feel like now I have a target to shoot for and the heat is on! I feel like before I didn't mind staying later at work (6:30, 7 pm) because I was in school/clinical mode at work. Now I feel like I need to get into pass the boards mode and study after I get home from work. In general it is fair to say that I've felt (and still do to some degree) wiped out after work and more in the mood of watching episodes of Weeds on Netflix and relaxing than spending time with my Fitzgerald books. BUT, now that I have a date I have something to keep motivated on.

I have to get a new Drivers License because my married name (what the ANCC knows me by) and my maiden name on my license don't match. My social security card is up to date but that's about it as far as government issued IDs. And I certainly don't need or want any problems with with this. I attempted to go to the DMV after leaving work early only to find myself driving around the town of Braintree, MA and exceeding the 5 pm closing time. I shall try again another day!
