sunshine = trauma.

i love working in the ER. it's so alive. you have absolutely no perception of time nor hunger - day, night, who knows?

i sutured today. apparently i remember how, after more than 1.5 years of not suturing. i must say, it was a beautiful suture job (chin laceration).

i also learned new things. like how to do an ear block (numb the nerves going to the ear to make the entire ear numb).

and i caught rhabdomyolysis in a guy that would have gotten sent home otherwise. (he was getting rhabdo because he did PCP earlier that day). instead he got admitted.

but, now that i'm not in the ER anymore and have left the time-suck... its starting to feel like it is actually 11:39pm and time to go to bed. back to primary care in the morning.
