A few weeks ago my laptop’s battery was in trouble and I had to bring it in for a checkup. While the computer was being fixed my Blackberry simply stopped operating. I was frantic. I felt betrayed by the objects I rely on, ‘love’ and care for. “Why is this happening to me?” was my new mantra. One of my friends suggested that Mercury was in retrograde; another asked if I had done something to offend my favorite objects. We laughed, recalling a Woody Allen routine where his appliances are on the fritz and he hits them, and when he goes into the elevator the elevator asks if he...

Episode 8: Elevate Your Elevator Pitch The concept of what a virtual assistant is and does is still relatively new, at least to the people I have encountered lately.  When they ask, “What do you do?”, I still struggle to give them an answer.  I liken it to being just like having an administrative/executive assistant in your office or place of business except I work from my home for you virtually.  This answer is still pretty vague and not a suitable response.  I found by creating an effective elevator speech I am now able to answer the question “what do you do?” in 60 seconds or less...

Once I recovered from the drug-induced haze and made my way out of the physical therapy labs (around 7-8 years old), I had seen far too many medical staff. Yet, since they were all around me and concerned about me, naturally it made me curious about them. It was simply fascinating. Overwhelming, but fascinating for a kid brain. Example thought process as a kid in a hospital: Who’s that lady? Why’s she got a mask on her head? Stetho-what? Heh, look at the dumb clown print on that guy’s shirt! How come so many of them have silly shirts? What are those cards hanging from everyone’s neck? What is that giant piece of metal? Is this a dungeon? Whoa I’m on a moving bed. Why don’t they use any orange or yellow lights around here? Everything ...

It’s classic Grace Jones. This collection fits in seamlessly with her ground breaking post-disco androgynous Jamaican sound. In addition to growing my music collection, I also had a trip to the doctor’s office. I call them maintenance visits. You know the kind, the ones where refills are given, and general chitchat about when blood work is due. Now I’ve been fighting yet again another bug. And one of the gory details that I usually deem as “too much information” but is necessary to tell this tale, is that my GI is always the first sign something is not right. Let’s just leave it at that. The elevator at my doctor’s office is painfully slow. In addition to his office, a lab, and a pediatrician resid... acidrefluxweb.com blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=2092570 Fri, 09 Jan 2009 16:15:46 +0100 2092570
