Yearly Archives: 2020


Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays again. Today is just a short post about “The Love of Reading.” The Love of Reading? Yea. As I’ve said before, I really want to instill the importance of reading to my children. My mother used to take us to the library every weekend when I was young and I read a ton of books there. The majority of the books I read were by Matt Christopher about sports. Then […]

Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. This is kind of a post in combination with Whatever Wednesdays because it involves Crypto. Today, we’re going to talk about “Crypto, Scams, and Physicians”. Crypto, Scams, and Physicians First things first. I’m probably one of the very, very few doctors that still talks about Crypto. Since the “bubble” of 2017, and “crash” of 2018, crypto has been in a bear market, and rightly so. They really haven’t produced […]

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. I know I’ve missed the last few posts, so I wanted to provide an explanation. Long story short, I’ve been sick. Sick enough that I even took days off work. To be honest, I can probably count on one hand how many days I’ve taken off of work since residency. However, e I was having problems speaking clearly and powerscribe didn’t seem to like my frog voice. It became […]

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. Today I’m going to talk about “Pre-Match Purgatory”. Pre-Match Purgatory It’s February 3rd, 2020. According to the NRMP Match Timeline, Rank Order Lists last date to certify is February 26, 2020. Then Match Day is March 20, 2020. By now, pretty much all the interviews and flying around everywhere should have come to an end. There may be a few last minute “2nd looks” or perhaps a late interview […]

Three Variations of Bunny Sensei
Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. I didn’t do a Whatever Wednesdays post, since the Monday post was so random. Today I’m going to just quickly talk about “Catching Up with Sensei”. Getting Caught Up I’ve mentioned it before, but I think 2020 is going to be “our year” to get things done. We finally have become stable enough to take care of some of the more pressing home improvements. The lanai has been renovated […]

Catching Up with Sensei #illumedati


Hey everyone, this isn’t a real post for Medicine Mondays. Instead, I was just going to talk about what happened over the weekend, mostly about “iPhone Battery Expansion”. So basically, my wife’s iPhone X suffered from the iPhone battery expansion problem that seems to be occuring more commonly. I read some posts, like this and this one. After confirming the problem, I made an appointment with the Genius Bar over at the Apple Store near […]
