Patients Appreciate Good Doctors

Search stats can be interesting, funny, and illuminating.  Obviously I get many many hits related to RA, but the top google search bringing people to my blog comes in a variety of phrases all having the words “thank” and “doctor.”

Every physician blogger should have a post (or two) addressing this topic.  It’s something people want to know.

Caught a Virus

Not only am I immunosuppressed, but apparently my computer is, too.  How fitting that this particular virus attacks and removes drivers, leaving the computer with all its physical components, but limited ability to make do what they’re supposed to do.

My apologies for not replying to comments that people have been leaving, and EXTRA apologies if you’re one of the people in my “real” address book since that might put you at risk of the computer deciding to send out messages on its own.  If we’ve only ever corresponded via the WarmSocks address, then you shouldn’t be at risk.

Once my computer starts behaving again, I’ll try to get caught up on posts from all my wonderful cyber friends whom I’ve been missing terribly.

Hope your life is running more smoothly than mine has been lately! :)
