But… but I was asleep!

The nursing day starts at 6:30 by waking up the patients who’ve
only just managed to get to sleep. I don’t know it’s 6:30 when she
wakes me to take her obs, but all becomes clear when she opens the
window to reveal that it’s still pitch black outside.

I try to get back to sleep again but I don’t think that’s in the
plan for today.
