It’s midnight and I’m finishing up work for the evening. Sadly, this is early for me these days. I find it weird that I wound up in the hospital for (among other things) over-work and am now busier than I was before.

That’s okay though. I need the money. My hope that the hospital would decide, “You know, Claire was such a nice girl. Let’s just call this visit a freebie.” was a fleeting hope. About eight bills arrived last week.
