Long day, stiff neck, glazed eyes….

I am currently sitting in the Med 2 conference room at the VA hospital.  I am on call today and so far I have had NO patients.  Believe me, I’m not complaining since it gives me time to get my "homework" done (I have to write out my History and Physicals to turn in to my Attending this week) but I have been sitting at this computer since 10:00AM (it’s now 5:00PM) with only about 1 hour break total (a few minutes at a time each).  That’s because I’m working onthat H&P – but now I’m finished with that.  Whoopee.  But now I also have a stiff neck and a little headache.  It’s because I don’t pay attention to how long I’ve sat here and hours and hours go by without me really moving at all…

But now I will.  Move that is.  Perhaps go get a snack.  Or go to the bathroom.  Or just walk up and down the stairs and watch my pedometer rack up the steps. 🙂  Yeah, that might be fun.

Only 4 more hours on call!  Then tomorrow’s a short day and I think AJ and I might go see a matinee movie since our weekend was cut short by this call day of mine.
