I had a long dream last night (maybe it wasn't long but it felt like it, you know how those go) that I was running a marathon... I woke up exhausted, with cramps in my calves, and dying of thirst. I know I'm weird. After all of my nighttime exertion, I can't muster a post today about anything whatsoever. I'm spent. 26 miles all uphill really kil ...

I just spoke with my doctor. This is all so long and expensive. I felt a bit discouraged while talking to him. He sounded a bit discouraged. So it's kind of back to the drawing board.

I say to myself, “I’ll never run again”, for the promise o ...

I'm pretty sure I've written on here more than once about how I will never do a stand alone marathon again. Or alluded to that anyway. Stupid IT bands, Stupid injuries = stupid painful marathon. And then, the next thing you know I have a wild hair up the you know what, a $10 off early registration coupon = Krista signed up for a FULL marathon. ...

Last week I worked six days in a row. The most interesting calls are already posted, I’m afraid. In three days, I did 38 hours in interfacility work. That yielded one call worth remembering. Have I mentioned recently I’m not a fan of transfers? Oh well. This patient had stepped on a low shelf in the grocery store and reached up to ...
