...but I don't feel rested

managed some proper sleep last night for the first time in about a week. I can't remember if I've mentioned this in a blog entry before, the Work Nightmare. It's not a proper nightmare in that it isn't particularly terrifying, and certainly does not make you wake up in a cold sweat. Rather (and cruelly), it doesn't wake you up at all - just lets you lie inert while a bland continuation of the day's events at work plays on. Ward rounds, discharge letters, cannulas, deaths... And you wake up exhausted, as if you havn't had any sleep at all, and then you have to get up and go to work again. I think I need a holiday.
