I was RSV as well. Long day for me - PHX to MEM early, then hang around for 3-4 hrs to DH to MOB, the GT to BFM, then into ATL, min rest in ATL, then back to MEM this morning at 7am. Scheduler told me they were short in the left seat today, and released me to crew rest until about 530p, as opposed to noon tomorrow as I've had done most other times!
Never done the BFM thing before, never had MFWF before, never had Carbon Brakes on an MD-10 before, never had V1=103kts before, never landed less than 266K before (kept reminding my FO to quit using the Heavy callsign!

) - interesting day.
Good thing I said "no".
But you could have flown with my favorite Captain!
