Still Normal

Another week down, and another round of ‘probably nothing’ to report. I’ve kept my eyes peeled during my rounds, but there have been no red alerts, no urgent memos from the Trust, and no dramatic incidents on my shifts that would suggest a crisis. No one has tried to bite anyone, and no one has risen from a gurney. It’s just been the usual flow of broken bones, chest pains, and the elderly needing a bit of extra care. If this blog ever actually turns into something else—if the ‘Watch’ part of Undeadwatch finds something real to look at—I think I’ll be just as surprised as anyone else. Part of me is starting to feel a bit silly for even keeping this page live, but then I remember that feeling in the ward last month. That stillness. Even if it was just a collective hallucination, it felt real at the time. For now, though, I’m happy to report that the hospital is boring. And in this profession, boring is exactly what you want.
