How different people are. Not character-wise, but physically.

Some people I get coming out of surgery seem as if they'd just woken up on a fine sunday morning and then there are others who groan in pain.

Some can leave the wakeup room less then 10 minutes after they've arrived and then there are others staying for 4 hours or more until they are brought back to their rooms.

And some really take well to the procedures and are painfree, or we get some like the woman today that we had to load full with painkillers and even then it took an hour before her condition improved (And by loaded I mean really dosed. Any healthy normal person probably would have been knocked out by then.)

On another note, one of the anaesthesiologists showed me pictures of his first son today. It's quite amazing to see somebody become a parent.
