TGIF


It has been a long week.

I've been tied up working on the report from the IMSH and running back and forth on campus. And both the kids have been sick. At least it's Friday. I'm looking forward to a weekend of lounging and playing Stick Arena (http://www.xgenstudios.com/play/stickarena), my latest time killer.

Something cool happened this week, though. I had sent Sumocat (http://sumocat.blogspot.com/) a note telling him that I was using Build 52 (http://www.markandtanya.us/scribbles/Build52v2.html) and how cool it was. The next day he mentioned my blog on his site, which was pretty neat. A few days later Gottabemobile (http://www.gottabemobile.com/) had a screenshot from my last blog entry:

This is cool but now the world knows I can't draw :)

Thanks for the Shout Out!

Addictions


I don't drink coffee. Not usually. I might have a cup on those few occasions that I was unable to sleep the night before, or a pre-bottled Frappuccino (http://www.starbucks.com/grocery/frappuccino.asp) when I need to stay up late. This amounts to maybe once a month at most. Well, all that changed with my trip to San Diego. I decided to get a small iced latte (http://www.starbucks.com/retail/nutrition_beverage_detail.asp?selProducts=%7B34D7DC79%2DD2E0%2D487E%2DA0D3%2DCE1EC7D83680%7D) while waiting for my plane. It was delicious! I did the same for my flight's second leg. Of course, the conference hotel had a Starbucks (www.starbucks.com) in the lobby, and I found myself drawn to it after every workshop. I enjoyed a few more lattes on my trip back, and found myself driving to the nearest Starbucks upon my return home. I haven’t been back in a few days, and I've noticed the world seems a bit bleaker. I'm afraid I'm hooked.

Just for Fun...


Just for fun, I thought I would post my current project, a wrap-up report on my trip to the International Meeting for Simulation in Healthcare. I'm impressed that I can write that small on my tablet.

Sick Kids and Ink


Well, Parker is sick again. He has some respiratory issue. Reactive Air way Dis (http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/reactive-airway-disease/AN01420)ease, to be exact. At least, that's what the discharge sheet says. My wife told me the doctor never came in to discuss his diagnosis. In fact, I knew the diagnosis before she did because I looked at the discharge sheet before she did. It irritates me that the ER doc didn't talk to them. I can understand that they are busy, but it shouldn't be the patient's responsibility to hit the web to find out what "Reactive Airway Disease" is. (It's when a child cannot breathe well, btw. Not necessarily asthma, but similar. I'm hoping more acute than asthma as well.) I'm sure he'll be fine, he has his regular 3-year checkup in the morning, perhaps his doctor can fill us in.

Also, in totally unrelated news, I finally started using Sumocat's (http://sumocat.blogspot.com/) Build 52 (http://www.markandtanya.us/scribbles/Build52v2.html) for my Ink Blogging. I've known of it for some time, just never tried using it fit now. It's awesome!
