Two Weeks

This must have been the longest hiatus I've taken from updating my blog since its inception. I have been very busy. Three calls in a week, with my two senior colleagues away was taking its toll. Not to mention Euro2012 was hitting up. England was doing Ok, so it could have been worst. They would be playing Italy tomorrow evening though, so the story might change.

Things had been questing down in the last couple of days, and I have had time to rest, getting proper sleep for a change. I would even be able to take the boys out for outings as well.

There was also the small matter of the haze. Luckily, the boys did not have asthma attack, although Idlan did complained about sore throat.

Tonight, I would be taking the boys out for dinner at KLCC, to their favorite Chinese restaurant. I was sure I got more time to blog later, after I sorted out my paperworks and my messy study table.

The Weekend Coming to an End

I slept at 4 last night. Partly because of an ill patient at the hospital and I was on call, and partly also due to the football. I still couldn't believe the Dutch lost last night, just to add spice to the whole proceeding. So, after the morning round this morning, it was back to bed. So, I had been groggy all afternoon.

Looks like our weekend stay at the apartment would soon come to an end. Puan Anita had started packing, and soon, I had to go for a quick afternoon rounds at the ward. The weather outside had been gorgeous, so, as soon as I return from the hospital, we would be going out for a early dinner. Haven't decided yet where that was going to be, but it would likely be somewhere in Bangsar. And if I could muster the energy, I might just watch the Italy-Spain game at midnight tonight. That should be a cracker!

On Call Saturday

I was on call today, but with a twist. It was the weekend, and Puan Anita and the boys were at the apartment. So, after seeing my fat noon admission, I had the chance of having dinner with them. unfortunately, Idlan had a slight fever, and was on antibiotics. So, he mainly just chilled out with his iPad. irfan was his usual menacing self, wreaking havoc in the apartment. He had been in the bath tub for the last hour.

Puan Anita had been cooking dinner, and I will get to enjoy her cooking before I come over for my evening ward rounds .....

Post Call

Finally I managed to have some shut eye after a hectic night on call. The call started out well enough but the five admissions after midnight did it for me. Went back to the apartment at around 3, and my sleep then was interrupted a few times.

I woke up groggily this morning, did my ward rounds, finished my clinic and after lunch, I decided to have a doze in the Doctor's mess. Success! Now, for the afternoon clinic.

Wesak On Call

Another Public Holiday - Wesak Day this time - and looking at the schedule for the rest of the year, it would likely be the last time I would be on call on a public holiday this year. But truth be told, I don't mind being on call on public holidays. The town would be either empty when the city dwellers left for their breaks, or jam-packed with shoppers - a recent not to venture into town. I would rather work on the holiday, and take a work day off, where I can enjoy a nice afternoon without being worried about the roads being packed. At least, that was my logic.

So far, the admission had been slow, but anything can happen later on the day. I just getting myself sorted out for the evening round, and of course dinner. It had been a hot barmy day, and the sunset was gorgeous.

There was also the small matter of FA Cup Final tonight. So, with tomorrow being Sunday, I can just chill out at the apartment in between admissions. So, time for a shower ....
