OMFG

This'll be a short one, since I'm only marginally what could be qualified as awake.

I swear this woman and her baby are determined I shall get no sleep at all. I was already so tired this (huh, I guess yesterday) evening that I contemplated bed with no dinner. I did eat a small meal and then crashed and was asleep by 7 or so.

At 9:30 I get the call to come in for an elective C-section because this woman is in labor and wants to have her section,which was scheduled for Thursday morning, now instead. So I toddled my way in in the 20 degree weather. I was in the OR changing room when I hear it was canceled. In the 15-20 minutes it took me, she changed her mind. I waited for another 10 or so minutes so I would have to turn around again and went back home. Sadly, I didn't fall back asleep for several hours.

I was called again a little while ago, about 0415, to come in because she was starting to push. So I am left with less than 6 hours sleep in toto, and a full clinic day tomorrow with no one else in the office. This is now day 44 without a day off, and they are trying to pressure me to stay an extra week. Not gonna happen. I have too much shit to get done at home.

Well, maybe I've already seen everyone who's sick considering how busy I've been? A girl can hope.
