so the doctor i had the appointment with this morning was a walk in urgent care center that i could have walked into last week so i wasted my time and money as all i got was rushed disinterest a half hour after my scheduled appointment because they didn't open at 8am as posted but rather at 8:40am, ten minutes after my scheduled appointment and typing all of my information into zocdoc (a good idea, but they need to identify their doctors better as i searched for primary care physicians and this quack gave me a hard to read zero copy of a primary care physician they are affiliated with and i wouldn't take this guy's recommendation for anything, so waste of time... he sent prescriptions to the pharmacy without telling me what they were, didn't discuss drug contraindications or history, and was not interested in anything i had to say except without saying the specific words "presenting problem, here's a pill, there's the door" not even concerned that my blood pressure was way high... amazing, yet that is medical care in the good old greed-driven industry in the united states...

musical distractions
If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?
dumb poll (above), smart responders
all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...
SEARCH ME
the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ... ...
WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ... ...
