Yes, I'm a huge nerd.
Yes, I'm looking forward to the day when I get a nice, shiny, new, pager.
Yes, I am excited about what I'll have to run off and do when it first goes off.
Yes, I know that eventually I will look back on this post and realize how naive I am, and how pagers are of the devil, and how I should never have wished for one.
But right now I think that being in the clinical years will be so much better than the basic science stuff we are learning right now. Studying for finals sucks!

Looking forward to my pager.

I too, am a nerd. I am no longer thrilled over call, I take about 4-5 nights a week, but I love it when I get paged. Most of the time everyone calls the cell phone, hearing the pager go off is a treat. I have an answering service who sends me a text message when I am paged. One surgeon's surgery scheduler paged me the other day and said, "Sorry I had to page you." I assured her that no, no, I like it! She laughed and said, "Because it makes you feel important." I think she might be right.
I'm going to page you just for fun next year or when there's a case of an emergency hangnail...
You can have mine too
I was excited too. There is still adent in the on-call room wall at the Montreal Children's Hospital from where I threw mine clear across the room at 3:30 am on my first night on call.
OK, I'm kidding.
They've renovated.
