The Shortest Day

This morning my team was supposed to round with Dr. A (again) at 7:15, but instead Dr. M met us at 7:30. Anita and I had lecture at 7:30 (Anita had a presentation to make, too), but out of respect to our team we stayed on the floors until we were allowed to leave around 8:00. When we arrived at the lecture room, Chris had just finished his presentation and Dr. C was not pleased that we were late. "What was so important that Dr. A would keep you?" he asked. "You're expected to be on time to lecture and presentations every time." Fortunately he wasn't mad at us, but he was annoyed at Dr. A for thinking that rounding was more important than lecture (when it wasn't) just b/c he was the department chair. Ah well.

By the time lecture was over, Anita and I only had time to see about 1-2 patients at HCW before our residents let us go early (since we start night shift next Sunday). Fine enough. We stopped by a scrub store to get some Klogs (my Nikes are not made to stand in for 13 hrs) and then did lunch. Now we'll see how I can adjust to a night schedule over the weekend.
