The Health of Nations →
Medicine may be hard, but health insurance is simple. The rest of the world’s industrialized nations have already figured it out, and done so without leaving 45 million of their countrymen uninsured and 16 million or so underinsured, and without letting costs spiral into the stratosphere and severely threaten their national economies.
Even better, these successes are not secret, and the...

William and Kate?
Don’t you mean Guille and Kate?
And isn’t it a little soon to be talking about marriage? Don’t pressure them!
Truthful Thursday
I often hoard the “best” Legos so I can build things when my son is at school or asleep.

passius:
A wife asks her husband, a computer programmer, “Would you please go to the store for me and buy a carton of milk? And if they have eggs, get six.”
A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk. The wife asks him, “Why the hell did you buy 6 cartons of milk?” He replied, “They had eggs.”

On the other hand
“He made my bug bite worse!” “He pushed me first!” and we talk it out. They say sorry to each other, and bro hug.
I guess I’m going okay with this thing. :^)
Parent of the year?
I’ll let you wrestle, and play rough, but if you do something that could seriously hurt someone’s back, you’d better believe I will yell at you hard enough to make you cry. And I will not feel one whit of remorse over it. I don’t care if you’re 7.

At my worst
I’m in bad shape today, like yesterday and the day before. Sleeping all day, except for a couple of hours here and there. Waking up to panic attacks, so I go back to hiding beneath the covers. Reminded of PTSD symptoms I’ve had, most notably during my marriage.
I don’t know if it’s the changes in my medications, changes in my thyroid, or a good old-fashioned episode of...

So, thyroid meds have over-corrected, and I’m waiting for my body to catch up with the change in medication. That alone makes me feel tired.
But my Adderall prescription has also run out early, and I don’t see the prescriber until Wednesday. (Seriously, if you can only write a 30-day prescription, you should be prepared to get your patients back in to see you again within 30 days....

I’ve been feeling extreme fatigue lately. My son spent the night and today at his mom’s. He’s not home yet. I’ve been conscious a total of 3.5 hours in two small chunks.
I am ready for another nap. I would also like to just take a long hot bath.
As a compromise, I might just take a nap in the bathtub.
