Musings

  • Girlie Bear is not happy.  She is getting cut off from coffee once school is over next week, and she’s already anticipating the DT’s.
  • There is nothing at all strange about a 43 year old man deciding that he wants to go to bed at 9 PM on a work night.
  • I have decided that the new medicine I am injecting for my arthritis is nothing more than light corn syrup.  When injected, it has the same consistency.
  • Nothing says “I didn’t consider my patient population” like handing a guy with arthritis in his hands, who only took his anti-inflammatory medicine half an hour prior to his office visit, a slender pen and a stack of forms to fill out.
    • The correct answer to this particular problem is to hand the patient a business card with a website and login information on it, and politely ask him to fill out the forms using a comfortable keyboard.
  • When the arrival of a pair of canvas sneakers is the high point of your day, you probably need to reevaluate your life.
  • Yes, these are my shoes.  No, they’re not too big.  No, I do not wear a big red nose to work.

    I feel for GirlieBear. Nothing is worse than a caffeine withdrawal headache. I guess switching her to Jolt Cola is out of the question.

    A one to two week phased withdrawal from the caffeine would probably be easier on all involved. Those withdrawal headaches can hurt.

      If I make a pot before I go to work, she’ll be allowed a cup. Just going to cut off the self-service machine.
