Hi there! :) I’m currently in the midst of yanking my hair out by the roots with my one good hand learning how to use the latest version of Word on my new computer, while going over the copyediting for RIPTIDE. Big fun! :-D

So … while I’m waiting for my technical assistance on the latest horrible crisis irritating matter snafu, I thought I might fill you in on some of the ridiculous retarded outrageous unusual search terms people have been using to find my blog.

They include (and I’m not making any of these up):

get your head our of your ass
thank god i’m not you
sad retarded person
my sisters a whale
before i get too drunk wishing
medieval whale

Now, what do you think of that? :)

What’s even more interesting is that over at this blog someone used a really interesting set of search terms to find it. Terms that seem way more appropriate for this blog, actually. To wit: I’m going to stab you so much

Whoa! Now … what do you make of that?

BTW, here’s a poor little robot, who’s also having a bad day technical problems (via Nik Nak’s Old Peculiar, of course ;) ).

But, you know, there’s nothing like taking a walk with your husband (which I did) to clear your mind of woes and make you feel a bit happier about life on earth.

Plus, thank goodness for Tim Berners-Lee and the Internet. Because this post by Seth Godin reminded me I needed to seize the day. Before I become worm food. :)

Furthermore, I’m now following someone called adventures on Twitter, because I’m interested in adventures. Do check the bio. It’s most intriguing. So is the blog, which is obviously written by someone with two good hands who likes to write. Ha ha ha …

Finally, I just picked up a follower called Do No Harm, which intrigued me. It’s part of the Hypocratic (sp?) Oath, of course. Doctors are to do no harm to patients.

Well, if you read this blog, you know my situation. I’m just a half-gimp with dystonia, pecking out novels and the occasional short story. Blogging as fast as I can. And trying desperately not to let that situation get me down. In fact, I’ve found so little relief from Western medicine that I’m trying to supplement it with acupuncture, in a last ditch attempt to keep from completely falling to pieces my condition manageable. (sp?)

Um, cue the laugh track?

Well … that was … different, wasn’t it? I was laughing, but then wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cry or what. But then I feel that way a lot, so maybe it’s perfect. Or not. I don’t know.

Anyway, I noticed that Do No Harm, aka Cliff Bacchus MD, says in his Twitter bio: “I practice conventional, alternative, and anti-aging medicine in the Bahamas. I recently authored Do No Harm – a medical thriller.”

And here’s his blog.

Best of luck to you, Dr. Bacchus! And to all of us! :-)
