It's Superbowl Sunday, one of my favorite days of the year and I'm trapped like a rat in a box here at the hospital. A couple of our docs have apparently forgotten what special day today is and are writing little piss-ant orders on everybody in the whole damn place. Changing IV rates from 60 ml/hr to 55 ml/hr, giving milk of magnesia, BS like that.....busy work. Every nursing home resident in town has broken a hip and our orthopaedic surgeon is operating on them like there is no tomorrow. Med orders are pouring out of my fax machine down here in the pharmacy like rain out of a boot.
So I have a special sentiment for all of you that are going to watch the game:
Take your hot wings, cold brewskis, chili dogs, nachos, Boston butt, Ro-tel dip, pretzels, big cushy recliner, 60" HDTV, surround sound home theater, hot girlfriends in tube tops and remote control and................
SHOVE 'EM!!!!!Just kidding, of course. I really do wish all of you a great evening of football and snacks. Put down the ARs for a few hours and watch the manliest of sports!
Back to the grindstone.
