There is an interesting phenomenon in residency called being "post call" It refers to the day after your 30 hour shift in the hospital. It refers to the time when you go from the high of running around the hospital taking care of patients in the middle of the night, to the exhaustion of morning rounds when all you want is the comfort of your bed at home. When you finally get home and get in your bed around 2pm or so it is better than the best orgasm you've ever had. The relief is tangible.

Yes, this is what I look like post call :)
Anyway, it's hard to complain this month. I went camping up in the Blue Ridge Mountains last weekend. (Funny that I first wrote "Bluetooth Mountains"- truly I am a child of the digital

age). Beautiful! It does wonders for washing the hospital from your soul.
