cruel, cruel world

Last night I got stuck working on one of the more cruel nights of nursing...daylight savings time.  As if 12 hours are not difficult enough, on this special night at 2am we all get to watch the clocks turn back an hour.  It is like being trapped in a nightmare. Also, the computers all go down so we have the added misery of paper charting then trying to convert all the paper charting back to electronic charting once the computers are back to working on top of it.  I had it pretty easy this time, not going to lie, as I was in triage so I just had to hand write the complaint and vitals instead of typing them.  The fact that I was in triage tonight and the fact that I was in triage the night the little old constipated lady came back in for a digital dis-impaction makes me think the ER gods are looking out for me...every once in a great while ; )

On a happier note here is the sweet and precious fur baby sporting an early 2000's Abercrombie zip up jacket.  If he doesn't melt your heart nothing will.
