Minimed Pump Field Correction →
Oh boy. My iPump was recalled a few days before I started using it. The problem is that the motor gets damanged by MRI  equipment and may over deliver insulin. I’m safe though, as warnings/notices about MRIs came bundled with all my equipment.

John Gruber says in his article “iPhone Fonts” that Trebuchet is “utter garbage.” I agree with this statement, but only on nights and weekends… at home… on my MacBook. During business hours, it is the only font I can bare to see rendered within the Windows XP UI.

I went “live” with insulin in my iPump today and it didn’t really hit me until I was at Joslin as to what that meant: 50-70 less injections per week. It’s now down to changing the infusion site once every three days. With my frequent and erratic eating, I would sometimes take a couple units of Humalog every 2-3 hours, every day, every week. I’ve been diabetic 20...

Snagged last minute free tickets to see Kathy Griffin tonight. Went with Joe and had a blast. I thought it would be comprised of all old material, but at least half was new and she freshened up the old stuff. It was held in an outdoor tent/pavilion on the South Shore. The circular, center stage rotated. There was a bug incident. She grabbed a Gay out of the front row to help remove them from her...

Morrissey came back to Boston last night to make up for his mid-show cancellation two weeks back. Aside from opening up with “Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want” (*tear*) the show was forgettable. I wish I didn’t go and just held onto the memory of the shorter, better set.
