… is apparently a squiggly.

I just ordered some stuff on the internet, and the package tracking is making my eyes cross. So, logic dictates that the shortest distance between two points (in a two-dimensional space) is a straight line. Furthermore, it is clear that the amount of fuel used is directly proportional to the distance traveled, and the cost of fuel is directly to proportional to the amount used of said fuel. So, if we put these two axioms together, it follows that any deviation from the straight line during the delivery of my package should cost the company more money. Well apparently, DHL does not follow the same set of rules. Because on its way to Atlanta, GA, my package just went from Memphis, TN to St Louis, MO to Hebron, KY (it’s near Cincinnati). I am not sure where the next leg of the journey will take it, but I would not be surprised if it is somewhere in Louisiana.

In other odd bits, my patient was completely out during her central line placement, only to wake up immediately afterwards and thank me profusely. You gotta love Versed.
