weep

I have to wake up at 3:30am tomorrow in order to preround on my patients.  The pattering sound you hear is that of my tears.

How the hell do people do this for 5 years?

Scenes from the OR...


RESIDENT
(To scrub nurse)
I need that...thing...for this next part. 
The thingy with the things on it.

SCRUB NURSE
(Understanding completely)
Oh sure, that thing.

(To the circulating nurse)
Could we please get that thing over here?

CIRCULATOR
What thing?  There are so many things
in this room, I don't know which thing you need!

RESIDENT
(To Michelle)
What kind of a surgeon do you want to be?

MICHELLE
(Deadpan)
No kind of surgeon.

RESIDENT
(Only half kidding)
Not do surgery?  Man!  What else is there?

MICHELLE'S INNER MONOLOGUE
A long, happy life.
