Make like a tree

I'm so tired. I'm so, so tired. I was on call tonight. I admitted a very nice lady with a nasty H habit. I also acquired a new adolescent today, this very nice, respectful kid who runs with a gang and sells weed and lobbed a gas grill at his brother. In addition, I gained a new medical student on Adolescent, whom I like very much.

He says to me, the med student (whose name I haven't actually learned yet), he says, "How do you deal with this every day?" He says that after we interviewed the gang banger. I was like, oh, honey, you ain't seen nothing yet.

So I'm leaving from call tonight, and Tyler says, "Make like a tree." I looked at him quizzically, said, "And...?" He finishes it, "And get da fuck out of here!"

I think it was supposed to be "make like a tree and leave (leaf)." Yeah, somehow I missed that. Think it's the tired coming out. Also because his answer made me giggle ridiculously.

But Obama took NC! I like to think it was my vote that did it.
