  1. Unfortunately, it's not of the human kind. In a previous blog, I talked about an Infusion Insulin Pump. I decided to go with it. This now means that I am connected to it 24/7. Anything I do, it goes with me. Even into the shower. I have to hang it on a neckless. The only time it won't be connected to me is when I change the infusion set. There will be few times that I will have to take it off, most x-rays, coasters with a high g-force and/or use magnetics.. This means that next season, when Dorney Park opens opens VooDoo, I won't be wearing to the park. On 11/26, I went for my first appointment to go over some things. I thought taking my blood sugar 4 times daily was bad enough. Before breakfast, sometimes before lunch, before my evening meal, and at bedtime. After that appointment, I now take it before each meal and again 2 hours later plus a final time at bedtime. I also have to count and keep track of my Carb intake. All this information when to help set up the pump. On 12/4, I went for my second appointment that lasted for 3 hours. On this day, we set the pump up and started using as practice to get used to it. I'm using a saline solution currently to get used to it. I'm also still counting carbs the same as I did the first week. On 12/11, I have my third appointment at which time, I will start using Insulin. The advantage of the pump is, I will no longer have to inject myself 4 times a day. I can do it thru the pump. The pump is currently set to inject 0.775 units per hour. After meals, I will be able to inject a bolus to help bring down a high blood sugar.
  2. Personally, I never had much use for it. All it ever did for me was make me hungry and sleepy.
  3. I think you were trying to make up for lost time and couldn't post much while you were gone. Jan
  4. Actually, you mean you were arguing with the Goat. The goat is always right. If you don't believe me, just ask him.
  5. CJ's already said it will be a little late.
  6. I have to agree with you on this, Graeme Jan
  7. I think most sci-fi shows use some kind of Universal Translator so that they don't have to use sub-titles. I would be interested in sci-fi especially since a four of my authors write it. Sci-fi also gives you more leeway when it comes to the technical aspect of your universe. Jan
  8. Since CJ is the team lead, you wouldn't be able to sneak it past him since the WST gets it started, then Myr sets up the polling for it. Jan
  9. When you stop and think about it, every chapter ends in a cliffhanger until the next chapter is released. When a chapter ends, we are left waiting for the next chapter to see what happens next. Some like to end a chapter with an obvious cliffhanger. Jan
  10. But you do give us lessons daily. Also, don't forget that the posts in the sub-forum in the Lounge does not count towards a persons total number or the daily posts. Jan
  11. When the goat decides to move, he moves.
  12. Only one more post to go and CJ will be the first member to reach 5000 Congratulations to that prolific goat author. Jan
  13. I'm lurking too, and I've only got 8 posts so far today. Jan
  14. You know, there is a way to settle this once and for all. It is almost time for the annual Readers Choice Awards. The entire GA membership would then have a say for sure. Jan
  15. I'm a Goat watcher, I'm a Goat watcher.
  16. Your not going to be able to slip it past us. There's too many watching you. Kevin was watching me to make the post when I reached 100 and our resident beast beat him to it. Jan
  17. CJ, you and Steve are going to have some competition in the future. I just finished a chapter tonight for one of my authors who ended it with a cliffhanger. He's already done with earlier chapters of his current story. Jan
  18. Ah, but you have been on. I saw you here when I was online at work this afternoon, 1:00 to 1:30 local time. Jan
  19. Bear in mind also that there is at least three other WST members who have been posting in CJ's forum. And one of us has the the title of The WST Deputy Lead. Jan
  20. I agree. I even called myself a Lurker, just like a certain goat, before I reached 1,000 posts. But that seemed to slip thru the cracks. Jan
  21. Actually, he was asking me if I would have sex with him. His letter went on to indicate that he was curious and wanted to try it. Bear in mind also, this was back in 1987 when I got that letter. And believe it or not, I still have it. Jan
  22. I have to agree with Rad. It all comes down to a matter of choice for each of us. I've already told you about an ex of mine so I won't go into that again. There was another that came along shortly there after. A former neighbor of mine moved back into the neighborhood with is his dad. He was 15 at the time. Over the next two years, we got to know each other on a big brother type relationship. He felt more comfortable talking to me than he did his dad. Eventually, he and his dad moved back to Atlanta. I later found out that one his friends that I had met was gay. After he moved, he started writing to me and at one point, I came out to him. He replied wanting to know if I would get gay with him sometime. Later on, I got a letter from him want to see me again. He as having problems with school and was getting close to going in the army, which he wound up not doing. Over the years, we kept up some contact. Eventually he disappeared and it took 13 years to find him again. I found out he's living in Texas, the Dallas/Fort Worth area. I found out from him, that he'd been married 3 times and at one point, he did ask if I would get gay with him again. After a brief period of time, I stopped hearing from him again and he wasn't returning my calls. Was he Bi? I don't know. I'm thinking now more in the line of being gay and very deep in the closet and since he was living with is mother and her family, he was afraid being found out. Those two case tend to make me shy away with a relation with someone who's bi. Jan
  23. Lets face it. We are all postaholics in some fashion or another. Some more than others. And there are some of us posting here that have access to forums that others don't. Jan
  24. I think that would be the ultimate cliffhanger to the story if the Queen of the Evilest Cliffhangers was to suddenly disappear because of describing and using bombs in great detail.
  25. I don't know either, but I assume they would start at the beginning and go through the whole thing and tally up each person. You can do a search of posts and topics from your profile. This shows you all the topics you've started and the replies you've made. Jan
