  1. We laugh because it is true. So true.

    I particularly love giving the presentation to experts who then proceed to disagree with what you say, when your source is the official text/journal article as you have no idea because you are just an intern.

    I'm hoping the sleep part gets better with time. Really, really hoping. Doing rounds 3 times in your sleep before rounding for real is not pleasant.

  2. Oh...this hits far too close to home. Particularly the sleep part. I once woke up to find that I was trying to do CPR on my pillow. I really wish the medicine dreams would stop.

  3. There was one time when we got an admission and my resident let me postpone till they came upstairs from the ED. I took a nap during that hour or so, and during that time, I ended up doing the entire admission in my sleep.

  4. Loved it.. I recently did my own interpretation of the continuum of pocket vacancy.
