FALL

Last night was the real first fall night. Driving back from looking at the changing colors, the air was crisp. It got dark early. There was just that fall feeling in the air. A day spent buying warm clothes at the factory outlets. Having soup for dinner. Seeing the pumpkins out for sale. It all screams fall. I think everybody should do a little happy fall dance, crunch some leaves, buy a pumpkin.

Out of the PICU now. JP ended up in the PICU a few nights before I left. Not good. Diagnosis, which seemed so close, is now elusive, again. I dunno. I just don't know.

Am starting in the adult ICU. Another month of every 4th night overnight call. I'm looking forward to the month cause I am hoping to really learn a lot, and it'll be nice to have this month over in the sense that I think it will help me be better at managing certain problems when I am back on medicine wards in December.

I am definitely looking forward to November 4th, when it's off to Ireland... Going to be great to be back and see people. It's forced vacation. No touristy stuff, just hanging out, reading for pleasure, evenings in the pub catching up. The pleasure of walking places, and not being in a car..

Ok, going to do something totally unheard of, and be in BED by 10 PM!
Cheers,
