Today:
- My attending decided to call me by a girl's name
- I spent my whole afternoon refusing to prescribe Norco to a known addict for a headache
- I asked my senior resident at least 41234 times if it was really okay to write a tylenol order
- I sent a med student home early (somewhat to my senior's chagrin)
- My co-intern's patient had a soft-code in the hallway
- I realized how dumb med-student questions sound
- I was shocked by how easy it is to place an order (as opposed to having three people co-sign it)
- My heart jumped into my throat the first time I placed a medication order (it was a metop dose change)
- My heart jumped even further the next time I signed off on a drug interaction (adding dilt to the metop)
- We tried as hard as we could not to laugh when our attending repeatedly read a patient's name that was also a synonym for a sweaty grundle
- The nurses all gave me high-fives as I finished my first official day as a doctor
