Subject: RE: TAN 45: `TANnihilating Political Threads One by One.'Sup, TAN.... I feel like hammered siht this morning. Because I was doing yard work/shopping/house cleaning all day yesterday followed by having friends over, I didn't do my scheduled run (9 miles) until 5:30PM. I actually felt great for the run, then got home and the endorphins were still flowing. So it was 9:30 before I even felt like eating. After dinner I kinda stared at the wall for a while till I finally felt sleepy. As an added bonus, I was on call last night. Nothing all day long when I was doing boring stuff, oh no-- the pages started coming at 10:30PM when I was trying to fall asleep, and continued a little more than hourly till about 1:30. Then at 2:13AM my pager starts beeping the "low battery" warning. I go digging around the house in a stupor and can't find a friggin' AA battery anywhere. I call my junior resident and let him know that I'm just turning my pager off--call the cell or home. And, of course, 30min after I hang up and actually fall asleep, I get another call. So, with almost no sleep, I engaged in mortal combat with my snooze bar and flew into work with minutes to spare. I'm finally sitting at my desk enjoying a little coffee and feeling better about life. Bah. I've learned that a long or hard run late in the day is roughly equivalent to pounding 6 cups of coffee, and that my luck generally sucked last night.  Edited by DrPete 2008-09-08 9:14 AM
