The Sunday scaries don’t seem so scary when it’s only a 3 day service week AND you’re on with your favorite partner.

Yesterday I learned that there was a band named the Allman Brothers.. they were not, in fact, the Almond Brothers.

At 35 yo, I’ve finally realized that all the “self care” grooming we do as women - the manicures, waxing, self tanner - literally does not matter to men AT ALL. At least all the ones I’ve dated. I could wear a trash bag & I don’t think it would matter. So I’m just gonna do what I want..

Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school 👇 I’m Maddie, and no one will take me seriously as a doctor if I’m *this* outgoing & laugh so much.

Sat on a faculty panel tonight for the med students’ peds interest group & seeing all their bright shiny faces - so well rested, so excited to figure out what they love & want to do with the rest of their lives - was my little bit of hope for the day. Will love med students forever.

My job is filled with sweet stories of kids being absolute cuties. But those same little cuties are also so humbling sometimes. I just walked into a 3 yo’s room & she looked at me, pointed & very clearly said “you’re a monster!” So good for my self esteem 😂

Idk what I’m “known for”.. but my most viral tweet was about how on the tv show ER, an intern performed a paracentesis BY HIMSELF on his very first day.. and on *my* first day of residency, I had 5 separate people double check the script I wrote for a newborn’s vitamin D drops.. which were OTC 😂

So my sweet resident advisee always brings me a treat when we meet & I told her when we meet this evening (we’re both on nights) I’d bring treats.. I had big plans to make something homemade, but really contemplating just putting some bakery cookies in a Tupperware & passing them off 😂

Okay friends, I need Christmas gift ideas for my best friend. She’s an (adult) ID doc & is currently very pregnant - having her second baby in January. Typically likes any gift that makes her life easier/more convenient.. and go!

I’m just one pediatrician in a flyover state, but I’ll never stop fighting to give these sweet girls a safe, healthy, more equitable future.. taking all of this anger & dread & turning it into action. Because they deserve better.

So how are we all handling our existential dread these days..? Do I need some retail therapy? A new show? A vacation to somewhere that’s not this train wreck of a beautiful nation? Would love your best recs to avoid constant doom spiraling..

I would love to tell you about the times vaccines prevented me from getting sick, but every time it happens, I don’t notice. I just keep feeling well. Neither do you. Public health, when it’s working, is invisible.
