these days

on the bus on the way home there were two grown women sitting close and whispering and telling secrets and then giggling like school girls. they were drawing way more attention to themselves by trying to be all discrete than they would have if they had simply been talking normally.

the nice girl in the tuition office was causing heaps of trouble by trying to be so helpful and upbeat. she was giving advice to people that had nothing to do with their situations and holding up the entire line instead of just letting people pay their stinkin' bills. but at least she was massively and sickeningly positive.

this kid came into the hospital the other night coding. he was physically dead and they were doing chest compressions and ventilating him. i have never seen that before. they had to put him in the same room as a family with a two day old baby, and the new parents sat there watching the whole fiasco. i can only imagine what they must have been thinking. actually, i bet i can imagine it pretty well. they brought him back and he will be mostly fine, but man was he close.

five hours of sleep feels really good after a few days of less than three.

i'm off to the soccer game.
