Year-end

30 December 2012 · nights

New Year night I am on duty. Of course I am. Last year too, but last year I did not know yet that this is normal, I thought it was a punishment.

At 23:55 the ambulance radio was silent, the TV in the corridor was showing the Governor's greeting, and two nurses were singing very quietly. At midnight we all stood in the corridor and clinked cups of tea. At 00:20 the first man came in with a burnt hand from a sparkler. Happy new year.
