I'm on call right now. There are no women delivering right now, nor have there been all day... so I'm bored. I've spent hours on line but decided to call it quits when I started googling myself and read info about other people who have the same name as me. There are more Siobhan Gray's than there are Siobhan Wilson's. There is even another Dr. Siobhan Gray.
I also read a book today: Thousand Splendid Suns. It was pretty good. It kept my interest. I was more involved with the Kite Runner though.
Then I decided to go work out. But since I didn't have any clothes with me, I went a couple blocks down the street to this second hand store and bought a t-shirt and shorts. Of course I didn't try them on--they are workout clothes right?
So I get to the gym, and my red shorts are SKIN TIGHT and barely cover my rear end. There may have been a day that I could have pulled that off, but that day is gone. To make matters worse, the lady checking me out did not remove the big huge security tag on the shorts. As I was already pushing it by leaving the hospital to buy clothes AND work out, I decided. What the hell, and just wore my red skin tight shorts with a big plastic security tag on the side! It did feel good to get a workout while on call though. I felt like I was cheating the system...
In other news...I finished my step 3, which is the last part of my medical boards. That felt awesome to complete! It was 2 days which sucked, but it was a big relief to get that off of my shoulders. I've also applied for my medical license so I can write my own prescriptions soon! Pretty cool. My nephew, Lucian, who is 4, asked me on the phone the other day: "Aunt Siobhan, why did you want to be a doctor?" So I answered the only thing I could "because I wanted to help people when they are sick." "oh, ok. I just wondered." It does feel pretty good to be a doctor. Definitely has changed my life.
