It's a Celebration, Bitches!
Why? Because this post is being typed with two hands!
Went to the orthopedist today. Good news: the cast is now off. The fracture wasn't nearly as bad as the ER doc thought, so I get to keep my hand free. I still have limited range of motion, and will be healing for 6-8 weeks, but at least I don't have...

Things I Hate, Volume VI:
18) Typing with one hand.
19) Having to do right-hand stuff with my left hand.
20) HMO's. What should have been a simple trip to a orthopedist was turned into a Kafkaesque nightmare when I discovered that the orthopedist I was referred to by the ER is not covered under my plan. So I had to find another orthopedist, which...

Good luck - I've broken my wrist(s) a couple of times, as well has had corrective surgery on one, and it SUCKS to lose use of your hand.
Before I started law school, I was a "managed care coordinator" for a surgical practice. I know far, far more about health insurance than anyone rightfully should. And I can verify from a professional perspective that Cigna sucks. You're lucky, actually, that you found a PCP able to see a new patient so quickly. Feel better!

Update: went to the ER tonight, spent 3 hours waiting to be seen, and another being examined (and waiting some more). Diagnosis: fractured radial head in my right arm. 
I have a huge cast on my arm at the moment, and going to see orthopedist on Mon. Right now, the ER doc says I could be wearing cast for up to 6 wks.
Will try...

Hello everyone,
I'm probably not going to be around for the next few days - took a bit of a spill yesterday, and have done something not so good to my right elbow. I was on my way to a friend's house at the time so I could hang with him on the night before his wedding, and didn't want to be a nuisance when...

I made my song a coat
Covered with embroideries
Out of old mythologies
From heel to throat;
But the fools caught it,
Wore it in the world's eyes
As though they'd wrought it.
Song, let them take it,
For there's more enterprise
In walking naked.
--William Butler Yeats, "A Coat"
I love Yeats, especially when he's being particularly catty.

It's June 5th, and today is a special day for two reasons:
1) On June 5, 1968, Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated at the Ambassador Hotel in LA shortly after winning the California Democratic primary. It's staggering to imagine how much different this country, and the world, might be if he had survived to win the Democratic nomination and run against Nixon in the presidential...

just the other day my wife and i were looking into scientology! i mean, not to join - but just to see what it's about. MADNESS. i dislike judging religious (ok, not fully true..) - but scientology is nutty. i see why the germans wanna keep it out...
i *think* On Liberty made the "evil book" list b/c it argues for personal freedom, and that means the option of foregoing morality and primordial ties. i think that's the "evil" it endorses.

Okay, I have to get a little something off my chest, so the comedy content of this post will be relatively low, but something really strange has just happened and I feel the need to talk about it. I just got off the phone with my sister. Now, to most of you this might not seem so strange at first glance, and it wouldn't be,...

Remember, the winner receives the beautiful Thingy trophy, an all-expenses-paid trip to the exotic Marianas Trench, and a souvenir anvil necklace! Note: in order...
