I’ve been getting a lot of google traffic lately from this particular phrase:
“hillary clinton nurse overpaid”
On first thought you would think I would welcome this traffic, because it might suggest that people are interested in a nurse blogger’s view of politics.

The most likely scenario [...]
Loved this “spirited” thread on Digg about Google’s plans for storing and accessing health records. Granted, some of the Digg users are a wee bit paranoid, (my favorite comment being “Hitler and Stalin were minor league compared to Page and Brin,”) it is a worthwhile discussion. It’s completely understandable for people to have questions about [...]
Did you ever notice a phrase that you start to hear in one or two places, and then it starts to spread like wildfire to the point that every time you hear the phrase, you want to cringe? For me, the phrase That Being Said, is rapidly becoming just such a phrase.

When I heard him yell, “You gotta see this - Come here IMMEDIATELY!!!” I thought that Ben must have taken his first steps. Instead I ran in to find Bill staring out the window at this red-shouldered hawk. It’s a [...]
At least that’s what it feels like. Body aches all over, slightly febrile (t = 100), throat is both soar and scratchy. Head is swimming.
I’ve been so tired of hearing the phrase, “There’s a lot of it going around this year.” (Because, really, isn’t there a lot of it going around every year?) But [...]
I present to you the latest job opening from my nursing agency:
It is a study at Suchandsuch Hospital, dealing with stool. The study volunteers would collect their own stool and the nurse would then grade the stool and monitor the patients for dehydration. There will be an orientation date the week before, to [...]
