TOD:

I have had to give myself weekly injections for my diabetes. Everything is already set up in the pin, which looks like a tube. I place the tube on my stomach, unlock it, hit a button and several seconds later (about 5 or 6), it’s done. I don’t have to measure anything. I don’t have to deal with air bubbles.

Question for you.  Do you pinch the skin on your stomach first or just leave it flat against your skin before pressing?

I started my first injection on my thigh and pinching the skin is not to be done with this injectable.  It doesn't clearly state how to do the stomach and I have read mixed things about that.  I think I shouldn't pinch.

Flat.

They’re screwing around with the Internet connection here. Irritating.

Tonight I go to see Suffs on its national tour. I'm looking forward to it!

That's another new musical that I haven't heard much from.  Hope you enjoy it, Michael!

Listening to some hurricane coverage. Someone recommended https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qitHKtkqN_w but I'm sure there are plenty of sites or channels covering it.

I cannot even begin to imagine a CAT-5, 180-200-mph hurricane.

WRF?? :o

MichaelG - if you see the cast, say hi to Jenna Lea Rosen - she grew up with Kritzerland - did her first show for us at eleven, back in 2011.

Very cool!

And speaking of chiming clocks (BK mentioned something about that last night), my mom has a few clocks that she doesn't want anymore, so I took one home.  I don't yet know where to hang it, but I'll find a place.  And here it is:

The clock is beautiful.

The wood carving is simple and not very detailed, but I really like it.

Topic of the Day:  I was prescribed liraglutide (Victoza) instead of metformin.  It's a daily injection, unlike Ozempic, which is a weekly injection.  I shoot up in my belly with a big pinch.

I looked up the injection pen and it is more like the Foreto, which also needed a pinch, I did for two years.

The injection pen DR John is using sounds more like my pen for the Tyenne.

TOD: I have to self-inject for my psoriatic arthritis and it's super easy, similar to what DR John G described.

Do you pinch your skin first or just press it flat?

Flat, like DR John G.

I won't be sticking around after the show since it's a long drive back, but I'll look out for her on stage. So cool to know the connection!

I got the recording of John Cassavettes’ Opening Night, which should be Rufus Wainwright’s Opening Night, from the library.

I'll be interested to hear your thoughts! But it's very much also Ivo van Hove's Opening Night, perhaps even more than Wainwright's. He did the book (based on his play) as well as the over-the-top direction.

Thank you.  It just feels like I should pinch that area.  It helps to know others do not.
