Meebo

So recently I discovered one of the coolest instant messanging related websites ever.... MEEBO. I can use it at work to use a very well designed consolidated IM program. It combines google, yahoo, msn, aim, icq, jabber, etc protocols into one client. And it looks cool. And it works (for now) even on military computers. So if you're at work and can't download software, or if they block the "express" versions of AIM or MSN and you wanna just chat cuz work is booooring sometimes, or because you're on lunch break, meebo is the way to go. Two thumbs up!

2 months already?

Wow,
It's been a while since my last post. That's how much fun you have on rotations - you don't even keep track of time. So I am sure a lot has happened, but I can't be expected to remember it all. As of recently, saw Casino Royale... pretty good acting by Craig.. movie iteself was 7 out of 10. Went to a Lewis Black convert last night at Blaisdell... I thought the opening act of John Bowman was funnier. But it was enjoyable nonetheless. Today, I am sitting in my "office" looking at my appointments in the Adult Medicine Clinic... and guess what.. it's empty. What does this mean? No, I can't go home at 8:30 am.... It means that they're screwing with me. Just when I think I am done, they'll schedule me with 3 patients. So I will eagerly await in the clinic, clicking refresh every 5 min to make sure I don't have patients. Sounds like fun! Woohoo!
Though on a more permanently scheduled note, I have didactics on Wednesday afternoons, so I know I have no work this afternoon. Which means that I am definitely done by 2pm as today's 2pm lecture will be one of those "Hey guys, Have a Happy Thanksgiving, see you next week!" deal.

Use google for legal online streaming of ANY mp3s on the web

So many people already know about http://www.g2p.org and how you can use google as an mp3 search engine and "anonymously" download music available on the web. The links are not always working, but then that's the web (and "quoth the browser 404" for you Poe fans). What I have found particularly effective is to use a free gigabyte locker at mp3tunes.com (with free music from sideload.com as well), and installing their plugin for firefox/IE which gives you a "SL" icon next to any link for an mp3 in your browser. What this means is that as long as the link is valid, you can directly move or "side/webload" the file into mp3tunes. You don't even need to download anything physically to your computer. Meaning you can sideload ANYTHING you find on the web and be assured that you're not illegally downloading anything. Of course, you can download the files from your locker at superspeed should you choose to do so. I personally just keep them in the locker because they sound great even when streaming, and I can access them from anywhere.

Test 1st document from ZOHOwriter - to blogger (via hotmail)

This is pretty cool.  I am using an online word processor (zohowriter.com).  It makes typing things online much easier.  Looks good.  And it can paste to blogger and stuff.  I wonder if it will handle pictures... probably not.  I know the plugin for MS ^Word can't handle pictures.

For some reason, zohowriter won't login to blogger correctly,s o i had to email the text in through hotmail.  I hope they correct the problem, because the website is actually pretty good.

High Quality Divx File - streaming!!

This is a test to see if I can post from writely straight to blogger. It looks pretty awesome. I even have a right click menu. I can toally use this to write my documents online, or on random computers. Forget using a flash drive and all that nonsense, as long as the information is not sensitive and you may not get screwed if your internet connection dies or if the website in unavailable.

On Call

Soooo I was pretty tired today. Had to rely on mountain dew to keep me focused through developmental clinic this morning. At 4 I started on call for psychiatry so I made a quick trip to Jack in the Box for some extremely unhealthy (but cheap!) tacos before 4pm. Unfortunately, there was already a patient in the ER, but the medical student gets the first patient so, I got time to sit down and eat. After I ate, I just decided to take a nap, cuz you never know when you'll get paged. It felt gooooood to just close my eyes. One of the psych interns woke me up an hour later as she walked into the intern room. I was completely out of it.. couldn't even answer her basic what're you doing this month type questions without 15 secs of processing. Went back to bed until I was paged at about 9pm for another patient in the ED. Took an hour to talk to him, another 30 min or so to disposition him, and didn't even finish the note until a little after 12 am. Didn't feel like it took that much time, but 3-4 hours for one patient seems excessive. But I guess this is the time I learn how to manage my time and get faster. My goal for the next few patients is 1 hr to see/assess/discuss and 1 hour for putting in the orders and writing the note. Two hours seems reasonable. Better than three.

Of course, now it's about 1 am and I am wide awake. I will try lying down. Or maybe I will get a snack.

Ooh, I just remembered I have a doctor's appointment at 9 tomorrow. I guess I will set my PDA alarm clock. Hopefully there will be no more people in the ED. But I would rather have them come in tonight than on Friday night when I am on call again.
