jayparkinsonmd:
Well, the simple answer is there are too many players and partnerships between them are next to impossible to broker. In order to fix the healthcare experience we all hate, the partners must have a singular vision for a better experience, and then broker the deal so we all benefit.
There are a…

I wasn’t sure I was actually going to make it to this concert as I was sick all day but I didn’t want to miss Kelly. She’s one of my favorites and always puts on a great show. So, I laid down in my office for about an hour…
Triscuits

They need to sell Triscuits that are the same dimensions as bread so I can toast em’ put full slices of cheese on em’. A snack for those truly committed to snacking.
This. Want.

So, after the whackness of the first leg of my flight home from Denver on Monday I got whacked by a suitcase while sitting on the plane in Orange County waiting to head back to the Bay Area. And yeah, it hurt. The guy said sorry, so I guess that’s something. The Southwest flight attendant that saw it happen said...

Oh Southwest...today you are FAIL.
I’m on a Southwest flight right now, heading back to California after a quick trip to Denver. The wi-fi cost me $5 but it’s worth it because I really don’t think I could have waited until I was home to share my thoughts about what happened before we took off today.
I boarded the plane and was thrilled to see an aisle seat available in one of the exit rows. I sat my stuff down,...

jhnmyr:
I have no idea how to introduce this post, so I’m skipping the first paragraph.
During rehearsal on Tuesday, it came to mind that I should see my throat doctor because something didn’t feel/sound right. I went in for a visit on Wednesday and a scope of my vocal cords...

Words about McDonald's Iced Coffee
Me: I'd like a refill please. And some more lemons.
McDonald's Worker: We have to charge for the extra lemons.
Me: I know. I already paid for 5 so I could get more with my refill.
MDW:
Me: If you'll just hand me those, I'll put them in myself.
MDW: Sweet tea?
Me: Oh no. Unsweetened.
MDW: Here you go. Have a great day!
Me: Thanks! You too!
Me (to myself): This tastes like coffee.
Another MDW: Is something wrong?
Me: This tastes like coffee.
MDW:
Yet another MDW: What's wrong?
Me: This tastes like coffee. I need a new one.
McDonald's Manager to MDW: Did you give her iced coffee?
Original MDW: Huh?
MDM to MDW: Iced coffee? Did you give her that instead of tea?
Me:
MDM: Do you want some water?
Me: No. As long as I get the tea in a second I'll be fine.
Second MDW:
Original MDW: Oh my gosh! I gave you iced coffee! I'm so sorry!
Me: It's okay. Thanks.

Can't...shut...brain...off...
I’ve been awake since 2:30. I attempted to go back to sleep but after 30 minutes gave up and pulled my laptop from its desk and started working. It’s now 4:30. And my alarm is going off in less than two hours. This is not good. Not good at all.
I hate when I can’t shut my brain off and that is clearly what has happened in the wee small hours of this morning. I was doing so well...

Excellence.
A friend posted this as his Facebook status this morning and it was definitely something I needed today.
Don’t base your excellence on other people’s poor performance. If you’re gonna compare yourself to someone, don’t let it be someone mediocre.
