Still alive!! But barely. Didn't get a single second of sleep, from 6am Mon morning all te way to 3.30pm on Tues. It's a frightful experience, but you really learn LOADS. My thanks to all the colleagues who stayed back to 8pm or so - that helped a hell lot!! - and to friends for their moral support.

Some scary things:

1. Desaturation
2. Hypocount 1.2

Some stupid things:

1. Extremely. extremely difficult plug that got in, then flew out again. Morale dipped right through the basement floor.
2. Chest pain. Turns out he was here for rib # anyway - DUH.
3. Running all around looking for a shower toilet, when my call room had an attached one.

Some nice things:

1. People helping out all around past THEIR working hours
2. Other on-call helping out and turning up in my call room with a surprise breakfast.
3. Extremely nice senior on-calls offering tutorials and guidance
4. Yx coming over to send me home! =)

Some sad things:

1. The "I wanna quit" thought finally came at 1am.

Going off to the wards early today, was completely lost during rounds yesterday. Oooooops.
