Tonight at work in the ICU has been crazy.
Just got a little break, so I thought I'd post about it.....

Really disturbing: This guy just passed away that was just admitted to the ER this morning. His wife went crazy nuts and crawled in bed with him, insisting he wake up and come home...this presisted for about an hour and a half...their two sons couldn't even stay in the ICU seeing everything going on.

It hasn't slowed down in here tonight on my 12.5 hr. shift....and I ran my heart out today in a meet....got my best time this season, but I'm EXHAUSTED......

Ok, I'm done.

5k (on a course, not the road: times are always slower on hilly courses). I got a 20:15. No speed demon, but it got me 5th place overall in the meet. It wasn't an entirely huge meet, but that time is about a 6:30 mile pace...my first mile was run in 5:55, so....I definatly know what I need to improve on. We have two meets left. A 5k (3.1mi) and a 6k (3.7mi).
