Things never could be easy. Not for a doctor and not around Christmas just generally speaking. Life seemed to be fated to hit you over the head with a series of events at once. The clinic stayed full all day long, from opening until closing. More doctors went on vacation; more new staff arrived. And this was the worst year in a long time and yet she had managed somehow to become one of doctors who was taking a week off... after years of working the Christmas holidays and it felt weird to her.
As hospital administrator, sometimes... often you had to sacrifice who you were personally for who you must be professionally. And women especially in the position had to be beyond reproach. She'd always been professional... set an example for her doctors and nurses by working the holidays and kept her personal life out of the hospital as completely as possible. What personal life? she mumbled. As if she had much of one. Now, she was seeing... dating possibly? one of her doctors.
Taking a chance like this... well, it was risky. Probably more of a risk than anything she'd done recently... at least since hiring House. And that had worked out... somewhat well, so who knew what might happen? She wasn't committing to hope but she wasn't running from it either.
