Almost Paradise

Work is good!

All my patients were alert and oriented, pleasant, and appreciative of my nursing care. It was a busy day, but it was also one of those days where I left work tired, but not exhausted, and feeling stressed-out, neurotic, angry, bitter and frustrated with my inability to provide reasonable care.

The day was busy, but steadily so. I keep waiting for the hallucination to be over, and for my patients to turn into some Kafka-esque cockroach nightmare, like they were on the Old Floor.

In fact, work is so much nicer now that I fear I'm going to be spoiled for any other nursing job.

New and Improved Nursing Job--it's a good thing.
