Grrh. My own stupidity
I've been putting off gettiong blood work done for a few months now, so finally today I decided "Let's Do It". The test was for fasting blood work and urine, and last time I was in I'd brought a urine collection bottle home, so that was not an issue. I *thought* that clear liquids were fine, so had some black coffee (no sugar) before going. Of course, i mentioned that on checking in only to get MAJORLY chastised and shown that it's even explicitly written on the form Oh well; back to the lab tomorrow morning and I'm advised to get there when they open at 7:30 as Saturday is a busy day |

Staying at someone's place and realizing that their "knife-shaped objects" are as sharp as a soup spoon.

Now to wait for the usual lectures from the Doctor. (I'd been bad and for a few months had both stopped blood sugar measurements AND was eating anything and everything; this last week though I decided enough was enough and am now back to both testing, and eatinbg far more sensible). |

Why is ground turkey a thing? Tasteless, nasty stuff.

Depends on how you cook it. For one friend of mine, it lets him enjoy chili, sloppy joes, shepherds pie and other well seasoned ground meat recipes without the nasty side effects he gets from the fat in ground beef or pork.

If Ben Franklin had his way the turkey would be America's national bird.
That goes for me too. |
