Holy Shit Me, What a Night!

Wow.  We all must have been very bad because we certainly got spanked at work last night.

I was A&T and it sucked big time.  I moved a bunch of people down from the top floors onto appropriate floors to be Bipapped.  One person ended up Bipapped and after an hour and a half on maxed out settings won a free trip to the unit to buy a tube.  Apparently there was a conspiracy with all the patients deciding not to breathe right, all at the same time.

The only one who beat my record was the ER where Jones vented and Bipapped half the county.

Geez, what's in the water?

Sharon took pity on me at 0330, when the cafeteria had closed and I'd had nothing but some tater tots the previous day, and gave me an apple.  It was glorious, I must say, and very sweet of her.

Wow, and I thought I was in a bad mood when I went IN to work...

But about 5am after a giggle fest with Stephanie I found my smile again and all is well.  Or will be as soon as I get some sleep. It's supposed to rain today. I love sleeping in the rain.

Gosh I really hate nights like that...it doesn't matter what shift it is, if patients are going down the tubes all at once it's freaking stressful!

Hope you get some rest!

heidi--Thanks! I was very happy to be off for several days. :-)
