My mom, a nurse in the emergency room, was having an insane evening. First, a woman who had delivered her baby in a car was rushed in. Next was a man carrying a lifeless body yelling, “Help me!” In the middle of all this, a patient escaped from the psychiatric ward, tore off her clothes and went running through the halls naked. During a lull, Mom called home. “You wouldn't believe the night I'm having,” she said to my dad. “Can't talk now,” he interrupted. “I'm watching ‘ER’.”
我媽媽是在急診室值班的護(hù)士。這天晚上簡直讓她發(fā)瘋。首先沖進(jìn)來的是一個(gè)把孩子生在汽車?yán)锏膵D女。接著是一個(gè)男子扛著一個(gè)已經(jīng)死了的尸體大喊:“幫幫我!”更添亂的是一個(gè)女精神病人從病房里逃出來,撕掉自己的衣服,赤身裸體地在大廳里狂奔而過。等情況稍微平息,我媽媽給家里打了一個(gè)電話,告訴我爸爸說:“你不會相信我這個(gè)晚上是什么樣的。”我爸爸打斷她說:“我現(xiàn)在不能閑聊。我正在看電視連續(xù)劇《急診室》呢。”
