I’ve been getting a lot of antibiotic-related spam to this blog. The idea of people buying antibiotics without prescriptions on the Internet disturbs me more than the idea of people buying opioids. For some reason it never occurred to me that the average citizen with no medical training might decide they really need antibiotics and then buy them online.
This type of abuse still doesn’t make me as mad as the abuse of antibiotics by doctors themselves. (Until recently I didn’t know that doctors will actually prescribe antibiotics for viral infections.) It’s hard to blame the public for something they don’t really understand… but doctors have no excuse.
This is actually supposed to be a post announcing the start of a “Thing A Day” project here at the Beemouse Institute. I’m going to be writing about my Things over here, on a posterous blog, so I do not risk offending the casual Beemouse subscriber (no doubt used to my chaotic, haphazardly spaced updates), with regular posts about Things every Day for an entire Month.
What thing will it be today? I have no idea! I love mysteries.

i looked at all your day things… i was spellbound but the milk top ring and the bus ride were magic :-)
Oh, thanks so much! :)
I’m really petering out as the month ends… the day before yesterday I forgot to do one, and yesterday I was just to exhausted to do one, even though I remembered…
I guess I have been directing my creative energy to other things,and there is only a finite amount of it…
Although, I feel like creative juice can be unexpectedly charged up and/or restored, sort of like the real life equivalent of acquiring a life-enhancing prize in a video game. :D I should figure out ways to run into those more often.
