Once again I run my buns off. It was a very busy night, at least until about 01:30. I was unable to get even a cigarette break from 21:00 to 00:30.(I can hear the collective sigh:"poor baby!"
My memory is somewhat better tonight though, so I shall recount an incident for you:
I few years ago, that would have started me blushing and stammering. But I just grinned. OK, leered is a much better description...
It is much easier to escape into a fantasy world after an exchange like that!
Anyways... I remained busy pretty much throughout the night, and got busier as daylight snuck up on me (figuratively speaking; I work in a dungeon). I finally got outa there at 07:30 and went to the bank and came on home.
I was faced with a dilemma: eat something nutritious, like a bowl of generic corn flakes, or have a big bowl of ice cream. Mint chocolate chip won out, as it always will.
Another crummy days' worth of sleep. I had two separate, intricate nightmares that I will try to remember more about later, if I get the chance. I didn't get to sleep until after 12:00, and I was awake every damned hour. I don't know what's going on, I was certainly tired enough that I should've gone right to sleep for about ten hours. Maybe tomorrow...
But now I need to get to work.
I was in the ICU and had just finished taking a chest film. Two of my
favorite nurses came in and proceed to put restraints on the lady, who was just coming out from under anesthesia, and who was known to be cantankerous.
You'd have a big grin on your face... and enjoy every minute of it!
I stated to the nurses, "If I'm a patient up here and you guys try to put restraints on me..." but I was unable to complete the thought.
The first nurse pipes up: "You'd have a big grin on your face..."
And the second nurse says, " And you'd enjoy every minute of it!".
