3 A.M. Neural Processing

I have come to the somewhat startling (but not surprising, nonetheless) conclusion during the last day of month 5 of residency that I was wholly in denial of what a 3 A.M admission truly feels like when I applied for residency.

Another random current neural processing: We have these new phones in the hospital with many ringtones, one of which is super obnoxious, making it a prime weapon for scaring the crap out of people. The ring tone has no nice chimes, bells, chirps or any other kind of lulling melody. It's the sound of a man's voice screaming, "Are you there???!! Are you there??!!!" over and over again. It is of my esteemed opinion that the creator of this particular ring "tone" (and a ring "tone" it is NOT, my friends) must have had schizophrenia if not psychotic tendencies at the very least.

Y'all have a good morning. Oh right. Most people in the world are sleeping at this hour dreaming of how they suddenly fell off a cliff while strolling in the park and discovering their newfound ability to sprout wings and fly through the clouds hovering in a pale, blue sky. Sigh.
