If Jersey Mike's had the option to do Ham & Swiss on their app they would get so much of my money. It quite literally is the only thing that has stopped me ordering nearly a dozen times. I go back & check to see if I can & get so bummed. I hate provolone 🫠.

Blood sugar going up just before I am trying to leave the house after previously being stable post meal should be illegal. I know sitting still while driving will only send me up 30-70 mg/dl by the time I get there. Shit like this that takes time away from the day is what sucks the most.

I made a mistake yesterday & I am still thinking about it today distracting me from important things. Trying to push through so I can have the space to apologize next week.

What is the point of the to go stands if stores just keep the food behind their counter & dont mark it as complete? Like if they arent staffed well enough to have food out for pick up then why have a pickup space? Literally waited 10 min for my food thinking it wasn't ready & it was just sitting.

Is there irony that I had to sit still on the phone with my pump company & thats most likely why I am as high as I am post meal? Yeah. For sure lmao.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court DENIES former county clerk Kim Davis's request for the justices to take up her longshot bid to overturn 2015's Obergefell v. Hodges marriage equality decision. No justice even writes about the request.

Me vs completing something with multiple steps to graduate. ADHD is the worst.

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Now I understand what the youths call a crash out.

Also, this program has made me hate librarians so much that I don't want to ever be one. I knew beforehand but damn the vocational awe & treatment of staff is toxic as hell.

Do I give my program feedback that making me do an internship has made me have suicidal thoughts consistently for the first time in years & want to quit my job? Because the fact that they require an internship for someone working in the field for more than 5 years professionally is fucked up.

It's 3 am, and I just found someone's web page from 1997 for a required class at my college. It's time for bed - I have gone too far away from my goal.

Low blood sugar is like everything is in 8-bit & high blood sugar is like driving at night with astigmatism & everyone has their brights on.

I swear I check mute every time & then randomly returning from groups I am unmuted on zoom after 100% being muted prior.

Good news is after updating like 5 times [even though I had updated last week lol] and shutting it down overnight it was fine the next day. Hoping that it was just a fluke.

Works laptop trackpad has stopped working but I can use a mouse. All I ask of this laptop is to make it through December & its giving me grief 🫠. If I have to transition to a Dell while trying to complete this internship I am going to scream as none of my devices are compatible.

ADHD moment, I got distracted & paced which made my blood sugar tank which was the opposite of an hour ago ☠️.

Me: I keep going low with this breakfast if I prebolus more than 23 minutes or use extended bolus, what if I did a split bolus with a temp basal to stop the lows? My blood sugar: hahaha so now we are gonna go up fast even though the temp basal is more insulin than the extended bolus would be.

It is quite exhausting how much misinformation is out there about Type 2 diabetes & even more so how common it is that Type 1s promote that misinformation. The fatphobia & ableism against other diabetics isn't going to benefit you in the long run.

Idk man I feel like I get why the FDA limits manufacturers from providing CDCES level quality of diabetes education on their own devices (CGMs & Pumps) but they have way more funding & access than most Endo offices, & often it's the patients who end up losing out because of that.

Yes, an affordable basal insulin is great, but most Type 1s who use a pump will not use basal regularly anyway. Though more T1D are MDI, it often is because technology is cost-prohibitive or inaccessible because of education barriers as most pumps will not fix knowledge gaps.

Idk if it is better or worse to know the science behind why something happens & still not be able to stop it lol. Like knowing when/why my digestion changes & still not being able to adjust well enough to prevent a low or high blood sugar.

Being at the scene of a crime [creator turns off comments] while actively reading them & them vanishing feels like I know a secret. Knowing why & what was said, energizing? Like yeah, you did get called out for your misinformation about Type 2 diabetics & you didn't like that.

ADHD is specifically going inside to get a fuel receipt & immediately losing it before you even get back to the car. When the only reason you got the receipt is that you will forget you went to get gas & think someone took your card. I am writing this so I remember that, yes I did get gas today.

I gotta say my program is one of the most inaccessible programs. Randomly uses photocopied chapters, doesn't put instructions or rubrics anywhere, but talks about them like we should know them. Provides little description outside of rubrics at random for assignments. It's so funny because they are

How the fuck did full-time staff do internships in libraries before technology? If I couldn't work on most of this remotely I would simply have to either drop out or quit my job which I need for bare minimum health insurance. Required internships in the LIS field are quite the barrier.

Update: Endo filled a script for Lyumjev. I may hold off on testing it until I finish grad school [2 months]. Don't want to deal with potential adjustments. Though it will be good to have & test in case the manufacturer's coupons vanish with all the tariffs & Novolog becomes unavailable to me.

A1C remains unchanged when switching from CIQ to CIQ+, but it's much easier to prevent highs & it adjusts better for lows than it did beforehand so TIR (& TITR) is better. Dexcom Clarity still has me roughly .6 higher for GMI (I understand the difference generally,

I guess I am that asshole who refuses to give up/take off my pump at the endocrinologist's office lol. Also grumpy because yes the finger-prick A1C test costs like 5x the blood work A1C test.

OTD 2021, back when I was on the bad site, #beyondtype1 blocked me - a #t1d - for calling out their unacceptable financial relationship with #insulin manufacturers amid staggering price gouging. #type1diabetes #diabetes #diabeticproblems #fuckbeyondtype1

Lyumjev insulin is now approved for the Tslim in the US. My endo appointment is tomorrow, so I wonder if I should ask or hold off for a bit.

Responded to someone's Instagram story at 1 am without checking the time ☠️🤪. Whoops.

The email fatigue is so real. Just getting 60+ a day, not even getting to the responding part of that.

Well now the sensor won't start on my phone 🙄

In the 100s, with 15 minutes to go. Gonna end up needing more insulin lol I can already tell.

Changing my CGM with 7 units on board with my last reading at 79. Welp we will see how this goes.

The worst part of working ft with grad school is my adhd meds run out for school work, and its just pushing through mud at that point.

TODAY, we're launching The People Say No: Resisting Data Centers in the South, our report dedicated to exposing data center harms in the South and how our people are fighting back. Read the full report, including case studies from 5 southern states: bit.ly/nodatacenters

I was told to see my GP in 6 mnths. I get there they review my chart & don't understand why I made an appt. The person who made my appt said there was a note to schedule in 6 mnths. They take my money & cancel my appointment. WTF. I didn't try to find a new GP because I had this on the schedule.

I love taking so many medications & refilling things in 4 different locations. What could go wrong! [I am almost out of my medication, & it is mail order].

First time in nearly a year inserting a G7 & the filament didn't fully seat into my arm. On top of that, it was a bleeder & painful. Then removing pulled off some skin 🫠. So much for using my left arm this time. So far so good with the right though. Was definitely an unexpected addition to today.

The last 2 days I've gone very low with breakfast [today's was worse]. Combination of delayed digestion & idk wtf. Food also seems to be wrong because the carb count was more than I dosed yesterday & clearly still wrong today even extending my bolus.

Didn't end up with test strips today because for some reason Walmart was ringing up Contour test strips that are priced at $26 as 126 dollars & I just didn't have the patience to deal with that. I have bought them tons of times so this was extra bizarre.

Went to dinner for mom's birthday, and by the end I had my low alarm go off & my dad had his high alarm go off 🤣☠️

Collections gripe: when each edition has a completely different subtitle & no place lists them as the same book, just lists it as a new edition... The amount of books I have nearly duplicate requested purchases for or can't find based on who cataloged it what way 🫠🫠🫠

Half the time I get stuck on something at work simply because things won't load. Especially outlook.

Tandem having 2 "Safety Alerts" [basically a soft recall] back to back, plus all Dexcom issues is making me want to go out & buy an iPhone, ask for a Libre 3+ & get on the Twiist waiting list because wtf...

When you go to eat breakfast and the morning insulin resistance says which always shows up says "Well what if I don't show up today?"

Learning mid-meal that the radishes I bought were spicy was extremely unexpected lmao.

I actually pay thousands per year to actively do the opposite.
