Geocites = sadface

Well, it's curtains for geocites. http://ping.fm/bWXRK

If you're around my age, chances are you had a geocites account, complete with incredibly too long to remember web address. This was in the time before short links too! Geocities was like a precursor to myspace. Or sort of.
My geocites account was something like, "The Midget Rebellion" that was the name of pretty much every half-completed webpage I tried to design as a small child. I used geocities to pretend to be an artist. Boy, was I a poor impersonator. I had a home page which could link to "about me," "gallery," and "favorite links," The gallery was the hardest part, I made a bunch of thumbnails and linked to the larger image. Pretty much standard stuff, but it took forever on my parents old computer. Dial-up on a secondary phone line. Sigh, the good old days.
I think I'll miss the fact that it's gone now. I've probably destroyed all the originals of the "art" I produced at ages 11-15. Now the digital copies are gone as well. *sniff sniff*
Goodbye old friend, I spent several hours trying to get my links to light up in flashing rainbow fonts. You will be missed.

I love my job.

I love my job.
We are having a trauma day training ER docs, I get to be a motorcycle
accident with a depressed skull fracture, open femur fracture, left
wrist and ankle deformity.
Wowza! I'm all kinds of screwed up.
All have done great and it's really helpful to hear their thought
process as well. Good training on both ends of the spectrum!
I'm loving the Cspine precautions and antibiotics I'm receiving. Makes
me smile!

testing the facebook app....

There are a couple of things I truly, enjoy in life. Grey weather, hoodies, cats, cereal, etc. Well all of them came together this morning in an honestly perfect way.

Then two of my favorites got even better.

Coffee and Wired Magazine.
I'm a fairly simple girl and this months issue of Wired breaks down the chemistry of coffee.
Yum!
Benefits of coffee?
caffeine, no cockroaches, flu-fighting base, antioxidants, cavity prevention, vitamin B3.

What's not to love?
