I meant to write about this back in November, but November and December sort of got devoured, so maybe I can do it justice now. Every November, our company does a little internal conference where people do talks and workshops and stuff for other people to learn from. When it came time to make presentation …

What Matters Most, What Makes Us Whole, Is Knowing Who Is Annoying The Hell Out Of Us This Christmas
This friggin commercial drove me batty this Christmas season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TXa8gnzc6w and not for the reason you’re probably thinking, that it ran six jillion times an hour, especially on certain channels. No, it’s for these three reasons. First, I had no idea what it was for. This happens more times these days than I’d like. I’d …
Merry Christmas
So um, it’s Christmas Eve. I have to keep reminding myself that yes, in fact, Christmas is here. With everything else going on, I just sort of tumbled haplessly into Christmas. So, before it’s too late, I hope everyone is having a happy holiday full of family, friends and fun. Hopefully, soon I’ll be able …
Tansy Lump News
I feel like a bit of a jerk for not giving everyone an update sooner. I got the update two weeks ago about Tansy’s lumps, but haven’t really had a chance to write it all down. So here it goes. It’s all good news! All the lumps came back as benign. The one on her …
Why Is This Dog So lumpy?!
I have to explain the title. The Seppa-Tebby-Tebby nephew has this game that he likes to play where he gets into your chair and squishes himself really small at the back of the seat. Then you’re supposed to sit down on the chair, lean back and say “Why is this chair so lumpy?!” Then you …
Way Too Many Thoughts About Yeet
I actually saw the whole Judge Judy yeet incident Steve referenced here. Steve was out in the kitchen and I started laughing like crazy. At the time, I thought this “yeet” thing was just something this dopey kid and her dopey friends said. I mean, said dopey kid just hucked somebody’s laptop because she heard …
The Penis Game Is So Much Fun…That Sounds Wrong
My turn to play the penis game. Mine is based off the album called “Medical Melodies and Surgical Songs”. It’s where the song about googling your symptoms came from. Here we go! Never Google Your Penis (No. Google Randy Orton’s instead. Might as well dredge up another old reference while we’re at it…) Text Message …

Um? Is That A Good Noise Or A Bad Noise?
I saw this video on Facebook a bit ago, and I’m sure my mom wishes she could have shown me this before we first flew, because when we did, I was constantly going “What’s that sound? That one? That one? Does that one mean the same as that one? Or that? What about that?” My …
All The Doctors Are Going To Play This On A Loop
I saw the song “Never Google Your Symptoms” show up on the Dr. Demento official Facebook page and thought “This is so totally a song for me!” Heck, I can even picture Steve singing it to me whenever I decided to hit the google if I had some new medical wrinkle. Sometimes, Google has been …

People Still Use An Iron Lung?
Of course this had to go up at the top, even though I’m being serious here. But come on! I read a fascinating article about iron lungs, and the few people left who still use them. I had heard a bit about them, but I had no idea about all these intricacies. First off, I …
