My Phone

It turns out that my phone is not currently working, but there is a new one on order from Sprint that I am supposed to be getting a good deal on even though mine is out of warranty and I do not have the equipment replacement plan. I really should have gotten the replacement plan because jewMan foo has it and when he had the same problem with his phone, they just gave him one from stock and he was on his way.

Stupid Spammers

Well, due to stupid spammers and their nefarious efforts to add spam to my blog, I have had to temporarily turn off blog comments. I will turn them back on soon, but I need to make it more difficult for the spammers to add crap. Isn't it enough that I add crap to my blog? I don't really need assistance. Plus, does anybody really buy anything from links on blog comments?! I sure hope not.

The bar

It turns out that a firm handshake is a satisfactory substitute for a government issued identification. I have proof.

I'm so proud

Jon and I were at the karaoke join (read bar) yesterday And, without any sort of prompting, I got on stage and karaoked a song. The particular gem that I performed a was The Ballad of Chasey Lane by the Bloodhound Gang. I was informed by Jon that much of my performance was mumbled through, but I cannot refute that as I was slightly intoxicated. In either case, I think that I did pretty well and I am still proud of my accomplishment.

I should have checked earlier

It turns out that the artist, Sam Avani, who did my first tattoo died in 2005 of brain cancer. That sucks. He did a really good job; it turned out excellently. And, for the two hours or so that I knew him, he seemed like a really quality guy. After I read that he had died, I did find his card that happened to still be in my dresser, good job me.

How about a little O₂?

So, you think that if you go to a good hospital, with sufficient insurance, you can assume that the care provided is sufficient to cover the illnesses that you have. You would be mistaken. Yesterday, we had a call for an eighty year old female who was going home, back to her nursing home, after being admitted to Rush University Medical Center since Thursday. Initially, she was sent to said hospital due to bleeding, but when she arrived, they specifically noted in her chart that she had was hypoxic. Hypoxia means, essentially, that one does not have enough...

I'm going to be published!

I submitted a literature review, specifically about the psychopathology behind bullying and the causes of children becoming bullies, several weeks ago. Today, I received a response in my email that there are a few modifications the peer reviewers requested. After completing those, I should be able to resubmit my paper and hopefully, it will be accepted and published in the next issue. I will keep everybody updated on the progress as I get more information.
