Sleepless in Baltimore
And if you're wondering why I'm up and blogging at 4:30 AM on a Saturday morning, it's because I had to undergo an emergent surgical procedure late Friday afternoon. The situation had been developing all week, and took a real turn for the worse today. Thankfully, I work in a hospital with immediate access to doctors and surgeons, so it was caught in time and will turn out for the best, but it has left me in a lot of discomfort and finding a comfortable position in which to sleep is next to impossible. Thanks to Vicodin and Motrin, the pain isn't as bad as it could be, but the cocktail of antibiotics I'm taking isn't helping the sleep thing either.
I'm glad you're okay.
