100th Post

I was about to post a few recipes since it has been a while since I have done that, but then I realized it would be my 100th post. So instead I am going to write about what I think of that. I feel like in the 18 months of so I have had this blog I have posted a lot more than this. I believe that makes an average of 5.5 posts a month, well actually now that I calculate that seems like a lot. I notice my subject cloud at 100 posts. The "Kate" word is pretty big, that is fine. The "skiing", "vacation", "rafting" words are all very small- that is pathetic. Because you can bet that when I did these things I posted about it, which means I haven't done the things I enjoy much this past year. Ahhh the ways life changes when you have a toddler. I look back at old posts and notice that I always have at least one error in spelling in each post. A friend once told me that it was rude to not proof read your emails, and I am sure this applies to blogs. I don't mean to be rude, and it is not that I am lazy.... well okay it is. It is that I am lazy, well not lazy but it just isn't deemed that important to me. If you are offended by my poor writing you are not obligated to read. I notice how the posts have changes as well. At first I always posted happy things, the cutest pictures etc. Now I feel like more often than not- like this one my posts have a negative tone. Hey If I am going to be negative somewhere it might as well be to the nowhere of the analog universe. I guess I am just more comfortable being myself now that the blog and I have gotten to know each other. I reflect and wonder if this blog has taken too much of my time. If I took five minutes each time I posted and I have posted 100 times that would be eight hours or so. Not even calculating the endless amount of time I spend looking at other peoples blogs. What I could have done with that time, we will never know. Perhaps the basement would be finished by now, perhaps my 13 month old could have been taught her colors, perhaps my dog wouldn't be so overweight because we never take her on any runs. Only an alter blogless universe will know. So what am I saying. That this 100 turning point post, won't be. You can expect more of the same from me. 5.5 somewhat negative, error full post a month about mostly Kate and the things I am mad about. Happy 100th.

This is not going to be pretty!

Let me start by saying I forgive you if you attended the University of Utah, if you have a love for the red and white, you may not want to read this..... or we might have a fight on our hands. Normally I reserve my mostly in fun rivalry towards the U for football season.... and even then don't really care, but I can see from this point forward I am going to be really pulling for the Cougs whenever they have a chance to smash those Utes. Yes this is going to be one of those posts mentioned in my "100th post" post...."mostly about Kate and things I am MAD about". If you live in Utah you have likely heard about the information theft that occurred with the University of Utah's medical records.... if not read about it here.
Basically somebody stole a bunch or personal information... SSN, DOB's, medical records etc from their patients. And sticking with the unlucky universe I face everyday, of course I was one of them. I was a patient there for my eye surgery last fall, not only did I end up getting some surgery that didn't work, and another specialist questioned it was even done correctly, and then when I was almost blind because of it they wouldn't call be back for weeks even though i called and left a message every day and then even though I couldn't even drive because the surgery caused so much scar tissue making things worse they wouldn't make me an appointment for three months until I practically threatened a malpractice suit.... now that one regrettable experience has turned into another. Not only is this claimingly "acclaimed" medical facility serving out unnecessary surgeries and poor customer service, now they are also serving my identity (which I work so hard to protect) to low lives and slackers ready to prey on my perfect credit score. What are they offering to correct this mistake. Well they sent me a letter dated June 16th 2008 informing me they are having a conference to discuss these issues on June 10, 2008... "information that could have been useful yesterday" and giving me credit MONITORING for a year. Thanks guys you really know how to right a wrong..... oh that is not what I meant to say... what I meant was... I think you treat your customers even worse than Home Depot.... if that is even possible.
