Glucose, Maltose, Dextrose all ryhmes with gross...

   Well. How do I start this. I found out I might have diabetes, not fun. I had the symptoms for about 2 weeks now but didnt know what they were for. i used WebMD.com to put in my symptoms and it led to diabetes, both my parents have it. So why was I so blind not to take care of myself. I visted my mom's this past week and I tested my blood sugar with her tester, I was at 506. Ya she totally flipped out, and I had no clue what that number really meant. She stated "You could go into a coma any second and not wake up!" Ok. Thanks Mom for telling me that I could die any minute. So she rants and raves, and Im telling her to calm down, what is that going to do. So she calms down and tells me to take care of myself- I find my Mom to be a pro at diabetes, thats all she does is find new ways to control it and research into it more. -So then she starts telling me my pancreas could shut down, and I could die that way. So I laugh, not because its funny, but mostly for being nervous, and she starts to yell at me "ITS NOT FUNNY!" So that was a tense moment for everyone there. --So now I am pricking my fingers three times a day and carefully monitoring what I eat, although it is not easy, even though I could possibly go into a coma for eating a Baconator, but I am getting better. My levels are still very high, and I am told to go on a fast, like the doctor has you do, to test you. I have yet to start that.... BUT, I am watching what I eat and starting to exercise daily. Who would of known, everyone but me... Ahhh life. It gets to ya, but on the other hand, I am certainly glad I decided to test myself and recognize the symptoms.

-Peace

The neighbors above me...

Ha ha.. This was a post in another blog I had to copy. Credits to davidgrote for post and where ever it was created from. I was mad about the kids above my apartment yelling and running around, so I did a search and this is what I found behind all the other post that were complaints:

Thanks to the "Bonus Gravity" provided by my landlords, whoever moves in above me will weigh approximately nine times their normal weight. To remind me that you got the "Bonus Gravity" deal, please make sure to stomp your huge, ham-filled feet every step you take. If I cannot track your current location to within a centimeter, you aren't doing your job.

When not watching television, you should take it off the TV stand and face it, screen down, at the floor. Make sure to turn the volume up as loud as possible. If I cannot hear what lesson Kimmy Gibbler learned today on "Full House", I will petition for your eviction.

The best time for your idiot friends to come over is between 2:00 and 8:00 am or whenever I'm sleeping. Once you see my lights turn off, make sure your crazy pal Eddie is on his way over with that DVD of "The World's Largest Explosions - Caught on Film!"

All of your phones must have their ringer hooked up to a bass guitar amplifier. This way, when your phone rings for the 10,000th consecutive time without you picking it up, I will realize you must've accidentally tripped over and broke your 1500-pound skull on the coffee table and I should probably alert the proper authorities.

When shutting doors, pretend the Grim Reaper himself is chasing you throughout your house. Slam them as hard as possible to prevent him from sneaking into your place causing the hundreds of filthy plants you own to die.

Taking a shower at 3:00 am is perfectly acceptable. Since my apartment is lined with hundreds of different pipes which carry water to approximately 17 different countries, make sure to urge your friends to take showers at the same time.

Every day at 8:00 pm, you should drop something large and heavy such as:

-A refrigerator
-A wheelbarrow full of lead and concrete
-A month's collection of all the Slim Jims and yahoo you consume
-The entire world

If you don't have access to any of those items, then just trip and fall over. Try to at least be holding some cinder blocks while doing so.

When speaking to a friend who has come over to visit and toss bowling balls around your apartment, make sure to use a megaphone whenever laughing at something he says. This way I'll know your friend is a very funny and witty man (who cannot catch bowling balls).

The "bass" knob on your stereo stands for "Better Acoustic Sounding Songs" and should be cranked up as loud as possible to reflect quality. Try to listen only to rap, techno, and anything which features a kick drum the size of a delivery van. If the song has lyrics, you should turn the bass up so high that it sounds like the the singer is repeatedly chanting, "mwog bbblrrgm gwaf."

Don't ever leave your apartment. Ever. Ypsilanti air is known for its trace amounts of cyanide floating around in it, so it's safer for you to simply hibernate in there for the next nine years.

Much like in exciting video games, hitting surrounding objects with a hammer may reveal magic prizes hidden inside. Smack everything you can find with a hammer or large wooden board. Then smack the wooden board with a hammer because, who knows, it might be a trick.

When the power in the entire block goes out at 10:00 PM and you notice everybody else's lights are off, be sure to shout, "DID THE POWER GO OFF?!?" out your window. There could be a family a few miles away that still has power, in which case you could go over to their house and borrow a cup of electricity so you may operate the jackhammer you've got going in your kitchen.
