did dare to go to sleep about 2 1/2 hours ago, or so. Not bad. I expected much worse. Actually, I fully expected to be paged the very second I drifted off into never never land – - but at least I was able to get the 2.5 hours – - it’s better than nothing at all 
Luckily it wasn’t a call that I need to go out on – it was something easily handled on the phone – - so now that I had to fully awaken. myself in order to deal with that phone call with any amount of clarity at all – - now I have to find my way back to sleep again.
For a brief moment I considered just making coffee and staying up. I still have 4 more hours of this on-call day left. I wonder how good my odds are? I think I’m going back to bed..nite nite.
