in TTC after 35
I was really hoping I'd get called off for low census today, even having heard Life Flight helicopters fly over my house twice last night. Apparently, however, a bunch of people decided to get really sick and need the ICU since Thursday, when there were only 9 patients on the floor.
I feel like a kid again, waiting for a snow day to be called. Only it doesn't get called. It's the same disappointing feeling when the phone doesn't ring and you realize you can't spend the day chilling out... LOL
Oh well. Off to work I go in 20 minutes, hoping that AF doesn't arrive too strongly until towards the end of the shift!
