Ooh, does that mean we can expect both of you about 5:30?

Yes. Although we shall be arriving separately. I think I am just going to wander down there over the next two hours, and Larry will be bussing it.

Glad to hear the good report on Larry.

What?? And no update on the hunky Dr. Green Eyes??

I wasn't in the ER long, but I believe Dr. Green Eyes was not on call this afternoon. However, Dr. "Gun Show" was.

As I sit here in the drawing room, looking at my etchings, and listening to Mahler, I can think of no more pretentious person than I.

You ARE wearing your smoking jacket, aren't you? We must complete the picture.

Uh, I won't ask.

At my weight, I can never eat freely in front of a doctor.

Well, you could always blindfold him!

Hello, everybody, and thank you for the support! My blood sugar level is currently at around 238, but when I went in, right after eating breakfast, it was 428, so I wasn't off thr charts but I didn't know that since in my ineptitude I managed to break the $60 glucose tester I purchased on Friday!

There's something about instructional manuals, whether for appliances, cel phones, assembling shelves, or making your glucose tester work, that I cannot read. It's as though they're written in one language, perhaps English, translated to Japanese, and at some point translated to English by someone who knows the language second-hand. Show me how it works, don't give a booklet that makes no sense to me.

Yeah, I wasted $60.00.

I meant to add, as well, that the wonderful staff at St Lukes think its's a matter of getting the medication adjusted now, so that's promising.

I had an interesting visit with the wife of the older gentleman in the neighboring bed in my space when I arrived; a composer named Ed Lipton, who's written several children's things. I liked his wife very much. When he was moved out, my neighbor was an elderly gay German gentleman and his partner, now retired, also German.

Very good news DR Elmore.

And nice to see DR Denise!

And happy birthday to Swishy. i'm pretty sure she's been around once or so this year.

VIBES THEY ARE CORRECT!

I'm glad you had entertaining company & staff at the hospital.

From what I'm reading, your having blood sugar problems, Dr Elmore. Guess what? So am I.

I'm "playing" with it right now. One time I go to the doctor and I'm one or two points into having diabetes. The next I'm two or three points below.

Like you, I don't really understand it. I haven't been told to get a meter or been put on any meds or a diet or anything. I don't even know which type I'm supost to have.

Danise · « **Reply #107 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:12:13 PM »

DR Jane, I'm so sorry to hear about Keiths Mom.

Another day where the heat and humidity rose at an unbelievably fast rate. It's just ghastly outside, so the mowing will have to wait until early tomorrow morning.

I watched the second side of the SHOW BOAT laserdisc. Always makes me tear up to see the lovers reunited. Even in that old age makeup, Allen Jones was incredibly gorgeous. And it's always nice to hear a tenor role being sung by a tenor.

Helen Morgan is simply heartbreaking singing "Bill." She was ROBBED of an Oscar nomination for her performance.

Matt H. · « **Reply #111 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:18:57 PM »

Then I watched three and a half episodes of LIFE. The one I only got partly through was the murder case involving the gay couple. I remember how it ended, but it's still enjoyable seeing him get to the solution.

Jane · « **Reply #112 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:19:00 PM »

Thank you DR Danise.

Have your researched diets to prevent diabetes? Also what you eat before the test effects the results. Did you fast first?

Matt H. · « **Reply #113 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:21:41 PM »

Of these first four episodes, I had missed episode #2, so it was brand new for me. All very entertaining episodes, but I can see why the show hasn't become a hit. The continuing story arc involving his investigation into the murder that he was convicted for would be very confusing for anyone tuning in for the first time but had missed the first, say, three episodes.

Matt H. · « **Reply #114 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:23:52 PM »

The pilot episode had a commentary attached. There were too many people present (5), but it's SO entertaining hearing Damien Lewis speak in his own way rather than affecting an American accent. Just like listening to Matthew Rhys on BROTHERS & SISTERS commentaries, it's like two different people completely.

Matt H. · « **Reply #115 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:25:06 PM »

There were also a couple of deleted scenes connected with episode #3. So far, those are the only bonuses in the set, but that's only disc one. There are two other discs in the set.

I should have no trouble finishing disc two tonight.

I do fast but no I haven't done alot of research. I've been been having to many other ups and downs to really worry about it.

You can really tell there is a storm in the Gulf. The wind is picking up but no rain yet. If you could look at our the local radar, you could see it just off the coast.

My heart goes out to those in it's path.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #117 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:38:15 PM »

Hey, DR Danise! I've been wondering if you're safe from this storm.

Danise · « **Reply #118 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:41:55 PM »

Don't worry about me, DR Elmore, I'm more worried about YOU!

Matt H. · « **Reply #119 on:** August 31, 2008, 01:55:28 PM »

Heading down now to clean my bathroom, put away the folded laundry, and then get back to the very cute Damien Lewis.
