Back to the goddamn er, because even though this poo poo was dealt with days ago I'm still pissing ketones. My endo is pissed I was discharged. Choice words during the call were "stupid" "negligent" and "incompetent". Woo.

I watched a baseball game to see what they are like. 2 hours and 40 loving minutes later.......... I kinda liked it. Pretty chill to watch.

Baseball is fun once you catch on to the subtle strategies. Line ups and shifts and whatnot. Great way to relax and watch the chess match, in person it's even better, I'm lucky and have an MLB ballpark right down the road from me as well as spring training parks all over the place.

I don't like watching baseball on TV but I love going to a game in the late spring or summer. It's so much more entertaining with sun and fresh air, and the whole thing unfolding right in front of you.

Yeah, baseball is for watching in person, or listening to on the radio while you work on a car. I can't really enjoy it on TV.

Yeah, I've never given a single poo poo about baseball but going to Brewer's games at Miller Park in the summer is a lot of fun, especially with the "convertible" stadium roof. Sidenote, apparently American Family Insurance bought naming rights for the stadium, so instead of Miller Park for the last bajillion years it's now going to be American Family Park.

That's ok, it's not like anybody is going to call it by the new name unless they're paid. Just ask Sears, err Willis tower.

I'm just as flummoxed as you. I'm also mood swingy as gently caress and about to call someone stupid if I hear the sentence "but your blood sugar isn't that high" again. Yeah. I loving know. I've been giving myself a 10 unit bolus three times a day for a loving week, in addition to normal corrective doses plus 50% and downing more than a gallon of water a day. Celebrate the fact I can still walk.

I'm not diabetic but I decided to start stabbing myself in the finger a couple times a day just for research purposes and as part of a switch to a mostly-protein & vegetable diet, and it's kind of interesting to see what different food/etc does to your blood sugar. Turns out drinking like 6 beers the night before will reduce your blood sugar bigly before bed, and then inflate it wildly in the morning. I have to assume diabetics know this, but it's interesting to me as an outside observer.

I couldn't understand the appeal of baseball until I listened to it on the radio. I think it's dull as hell when watching it but listening to the game being narrated works for me for some reason. Though the times I listened to it were during an internship where I didn't have the option to just kill time on my phone and I haven't listened to it since.

Applebees Appetizer posted:Great way to relax and watch the chess match This reminds me, I have a problem. I loving hate chess. (That's not the problem, that's my son's problem) my problem is that my son loving loves it and I'm the only other person he knows who plays it, so I play it, and so far, kick his rear end into the weeds every single time. But he's getting better, and wants to play it more and more often, I think he's looking forward to beating me, which is great to see and encourage, but... I really hate chess. Wonder if I can get him to alternate with backgammon. I can play backgammon for loving ever.

Oh man, do I watch a lot of baseball. I played for many years as a kid (at a pretty high level, for Canada at least), and I still enjoy watching. Plus with my job being full of downtime, I have ample opportunity to do so.The Door Frame posted:Or the White Sox stadium. You can tell how old people are by whether they call it Comisky, The Cell, or Sox Park Thank goodness for Fenway Park.  My "local" MLB park, if you can call Seattle local when it's 600 miles away, is now T-Mobile Park...not a great name, but they're just swapping one sponsor for another so meh.

Let me tell you about Cowboys Stadium - AT&T Stadium, I think? Nobody calls it that but the announcers. Don't even get me started on how it's not even in Dallas county, much less Dallas itself. Also, whatever field it is that the Texas Rangers pretend to play at. I literally don't know what it's called now, they've changed it enough. "The Ballpark" is pretty much the default now, from when it was "The Ballpark At Arlington" (which sounded pretentious as hell.)

Can't Knock The Hustle is surprisingly catchy, but honestly what started souring me on Weezer was seeing them live in what must have been 2001. The only large-scale concert I've ever been to where I was underwhelmed. Foo Fighters, on the other hand, is the complete loving opposite. I'm pretty sure Dave Grohl could find a way to deliver more than advertised if his job was narrating grass growing.

For my part we saw them at Red Rocks more than a decade ago and it was a good show. ~*~more opinions on the internet~*~

I am starting AA soon. Might have saw where I was in the hospital well fellas that was my fault and while I wasn’t forced the doctors said I could either walk out of the hospital that day and have maybe a few more years or I could get some help. I chose the help and I’m trying to change my life (again).

I've seen them twice. I had a bit of a moment during the second time when he introduced Breakout as something old, and then realized just how old that "newer" Foo album was. Then he threw in "your minivan-driving-rear end" into the beginning of the song. gently caress it, time marches on, enjoy it.
