Worked in the ER day shift today - I gotta say the amount of people that came in for the weirdest stuff because they thought we wouldn’t be busy made things INCREDIBLY busy. Yikes - PSA ER stands for EMERGENCY - check if you’d lose life or limb before walking through the door, especially on a major holiday. Lice isn’t an emergency, neither is a cold you’ve had for 2 weeks that isn’t getting better and you’re still having mild symptoms. Honestly, try calling your PCP first - or get a PCP and quit using ERs as the source of all your medical care - you need to follow up for things like blood pressure and diabetes with a regular doc - important stuff - stops the hours long wait everybody has when they come for emergencies that happen because they haven’t ever seen a doc outside of an ER.

But anyway…..

Had an amazing dinner and cuddles with the grandkid so it ended very well - and now off to sleep

Merry Christmas anat all yinz guys
