I spy Cristina in the locker room, changing out of her scrubs. I walk in and close the door behind me. I've been looking for all day and I haven't been able to find her. Now I have the chance to tell her what Lexie told me and I can tell Cristina how I really feel...even if I'm not sure how I really feel about the situation ( Read more... )

I need a larger team for this skin grafting case and I know the only way that I'm going to get it done is through Addison- something I'm not looking forward to. At all. The girl is ready though and I have the donor tissue. I have more than enough time ( Read more... )

Nothing really hurts and I'm not sleepy all the time. I don't know what gives. I don't know why somebody couldn't help me with this before. I push my hair out of my face and look out the window. It's raining. Again. And I'd rather be out in it than in this stupid hospital room ( Read more... )

After I prep Dr. Sloane's second patient of the day, I check in on Mrs. Sandler and make a few quick notes in her chart. Things are relatively slow at the moment and although being on plastics is beginning to get tedious, it's still oddly enjoyable. Working with Aubrey is obviously an added bonus, which makes work a little more interesting ( Read more... )

It's almost lunch time which will give Aubrey and I the perfect chance to talk and see if we can get anything further figured out involving the baby. We are running short on time. We need to get a plan in place before it's too late and we are scrambling ( Read more... )

It was nice waking up with Derek this morning, even if it was a little earlier than normal because his daughter was awake before the birds were even singing. I sat and made faces at her while he fed her breakfast, and I kept an eye on her for him when he took a shower. I know I'm not ready for my own kids, but this might be ok. He doesn't see ( Read more... )

It's way too early in the morning on a Saturday, and the eviction notice has been served. I want this kid out now. The lungs are developed enough where he or she should be fine. I don't think it's selfish. I've donated a lot of time to this kid, and now I want my body back. I want things to stop hurting and stop feeling squished. I want to be ( Read more... )

I hand Lexie my keys and tell her to go on inside while I open the back door and smile at Ana sleeping in her car seat. I undo her harness and gently pull her from the seat, laying her head against my shoulder. This little girl has my heart and there is no denying that. Especially when she begs for a princess costume and she gets it. I'm sure ( Read more... )

I comb over the paperwork again, double-checking the spreadsheet I created and still coming up short. We are so over budget, and part of the problem is I can't get my employees to leave. Why won't they go home to their families? I could stay here for 20 hours a day and still have work to do, but at some point, I have to go home to my kids. And ( Read more... )

I walk up towards my office, leaving Cristina to do some prep work before our next surgery. This morning was a nice change and hopefully this evening will be more of the same. I drop my briefcase down and check my messages before I head up to Derek's office to ask him about this evening. I should probably warn him that Meredith may be coming, but ( Read more... )
