Thanks for the follow.
My last decent post was back in 2012.
Something that I've noticed at hospital Emergency Departments in Alberta recently... they no longer display the anticipated wait time to see a doctor.

Yeah, those nine hour wait times aren't exactly encouraging.

Unused Vintage Resolutions, still in the original packaging and in pristine condition.

These old resolutions that I found in a dust covered box in the basement are still usable right?

Having had small children, I know the answers to life’s most difficult questions. e.g. why the ninja turtle underpants are laying in the middle of this parking lot.

I just overhead my wife talking with a neighbour and was surprised to learn that in fact, I do have some new year resolutions. Huh.🤔

When hypersensitive to medications, starting a new one requires a Tritation period.

This means slowly increasing the dose by very small amounts over weeks, even months, to hopefully find a safe dose that is effective without excessive side effects.
Many fail quickly.

Two weeks in. Buckle up.

I appreciate the friendships that I have made with people younger than me, some substantially.
Many have expanded my thinking, kept me young at heart.
There's some sadness with such friendships, realizing that I'll miss much of their life journey.
Such is life. I will enjoy it while I can.

Today at the grocery store the cashier asked "how are you doing?" and I was completely stumped.

I honestly wasn't expecting anyone to ask me such a difficult and personal question.

You make a good point.

"I do not, you're an idiot for saying that I do."

You make a good point.

FRIEND:How’ve you been?

ME: my room is a mess, I haven’t had a solid shit in months, the only time I sleep is when I’m baked out of my mind, I can’t listen to any music I love, and I feel like I’ll have an asylum-seeking kind of panic attack at any moment

FRIEND: well, you look good

I've been asked by 3 media outlets in the last week to do interviews on the influenza season.

I still haven't seen our new CMOH, appointed Dec 18th, (or old one, for that matter. Or any public health official) in the media on this topic.

For the record, they are acutally paid, to do this.

When you've been cooped up in the house for days.. and suddenly going outside when it's-34°C seems like a good idea.
