Conversing with Life

Marathon Nightcall

In a sense, a nightcall is like a marathon.

Especially when the cases don't seem to stop coming in.

Because it's tough. Because the night seems so long and that you always wish dawn would break earlier.

Because with every call that tells you there's a new case, you realise you will never get started on the passive changes.

And when the clock is reaching 5am, you realise the last few hours are the toughest.

But after every night-mare-call, you realise that you've made it, even though barely alive.

And you know that you have extended your pain threshold to another level.

If you are sado-masochistic enough, you will want to do it again, in even better style.

Personal best: 24 and counting.
