Think I've come to a fork in the road

This is probably not exactly what you are looking for but I have friends who opted for free-standing outpatient surgery clinics. Monday-Friday, no weekends, no holidays. You prep the patient for surgery (IV start, sign paperwork) and then you recover. Then the patient goes home!

Good luck with whatever you end up doing - I agree that paperwork has to be the worst part of nursing.

Glad to hear that you have some interviews coming up. Both of the options you described sound so much better than what you left. A portion of the paperwork pie, instead of the whole pie and then some! Good luck on your interviews!
