Looking at the calendar this morning, I suddenly realized that it was one year ago today that I started blogging at Healthbolt. Wow, how time flies when you’re having fun. I know it’s a cliche, but it only seems like yesterday.
So in celebration of the day, I thought I’d share some of my favorite posts with you…
Nine Christmas Gifts for the Hypochondriac in Your Life was the second post I wrote for Healthbolt and it was probably the most fun. Exploring all the interesting and fun gifts you could buy for the ‘hypochondriac’ was a blast. After all, how could a person resist fluffy giant microbes and internal organs.
And then there was Doing the Hasselhoff and Pumpkin Positive, an examination of entertaining and information medical slang.
On a more serious note, I wrote about how the CDC says Morgellons is a mystery disease worth investigating, found 5 Smoking Gadgets That Might Help You Quit Smoking, discussed needle phobia in No Needles Please…I’m Belonephobic, and looked at some fascinating historic facts about Marijuana.
There was also human interest stories with the Ice Man, the Blue Man, the Tree Man, and the Upside Down Man.
Plus the unique, the intriguing, and the bizarre with Can You Do This With Your Body, Dermatographia as Body Art, Blood-Sucking Beauty, What’s That in Your Head, A Visit to the Anatomical Theatre, and Russian Spa builds a monument to the enema.
There were some health tips such as Humming my way to clearer sinuses, Do the Hara Hachi Bu, Zip Your Migraine Away With Magnets, and Are You Tired of Being Tired.
But of all 300 plus posts over this past year, Remembering Randy Pausch is the one I consider the most important. What he said in The Last Lecture will stick with me always…
Happy Anniversary, Liz! That was one fast year, wasn’t it? Congratulations on your continued success. Here’s to many more. *insert clinking glass sound here*
Hey Liberty,
Great to hear from you. We miss you here. Hope you’re still having fun with the soap opera blog — by the way, why nothing on DOOL??
Cheers,
Liz
Hey Liz -
Miss you, too! Of course, soaps are still a blast. Wish I COULD cover DAYS, but it has its own site at About.com – http://daysofourlives.about.com – check it out.
Happy Holidays!
