You know you're spending to much time in the hospital when..
This week has been like homecoming at the local hospital. My dad feel in the bathroom and put his head through the wall. My mom feel by the bathroom and ended up with a few staples in the head.
You know that you're spending to much time at the hospital when...
You're not
You even think of giving an accident victim a hard time for cutting in line.
You actually think the police care about your illegally parked car while a medivac helicopter is landing.
You instinctively sit by the outlet in case you run out of juice for devices.
The guard lets you back in the emergency room without checking in.
The cashier in the cafe knows you by name.
You can swap personal stories with the emergency room staff- at any hr!
