Sometimes being on call really sucks. Like right now. I got called at 02:35 and I got home at 04:30. I briefly thought about sleeping some more, but my alarm is set fot 05:30, and an hour just wouldn't be worth it. And, once again, I really wasn't sleeping worth a damn. My nose wasn't plugged up or anything like that, it's just that I kept waking up and looking at the clock every fifteen minutes or so. So anyways... I got the patient done, it was a downs-syndrome man with a neck injury, and he *would not* hold still. It took about 40 minutes to do the exam and another 40 to do the multiplanar reconstructions... when I finally got a good run, I had to adjust the final images in all three planes. I will probably take off early today again, but this time I won't bother having Karen wake me up, I'll just let myself adjust naturally. Riiiiight, like my sleep patterns have ever even approached "natural". And yes, I will remember to go vote on the way home. 17:30... I have spent enough time being awake today, I've already told Karen to not include me in any plans. I've taken my evening medications, so I'm ready for bed, all my head has to to is hit the pillow....
Well, I made it through most of the day today, I left at 14:45, 45 minutes early. Went by the bank, then I had to come home and get my glasses before I could go vote. Did that, hoping that my guys and gals win. And I also voted to throw all of the judges out, I do that every time but they're all still there until they die or retire in spite of my vote. I doubt that any of them even feel bad about the negative ballots that they get. Maybe I'm the only one that ever tries to vote them out, I dunno.
