Surgery in 12 hours. Gotta be at the hospital at 5:45. Hopefully I can keep my phone with me, because I can't have any actual humans waiting with me for those two hours. I'll certainly not be happy if my phone gets stolen from my patient belongings bag but on the other hand, I have to have SOMETHING to keep my brain mildly active or I'll be a pile of tense disaster by the time I get into an actual OR.
(I'm always weirdly scared of being intubated. I've been intubated four times and it's been completely fine every single one of 'em.)
The first half of the bowel prep did nothing, so I should be drinking the second half now. Instead I am crying over the idea of having to drink another five ounces of magnesium citrate. I can't handle the taste and it is incredibly difficult for me to keep down.

Mag citrate is so gross. I finally shoved it in the freezer to get it really cold and mentally chanted 'chug chug chug' when I drank it.
It only sort of helped. Best wishes for a non-eventful experience!
