Insulin and Humor

Both are medicines I need and thankfully they have helped a lot recently.

If you have not been by Scott's blog lately then please take a trip over there and read this post and also all of the comments about it. Go ahead, I'll wait til you get back...

So? What did you think?

I know! I was cracking up too! Bernard is quite the Photoshop Ninja. Not only is he skilled in computer programs but he has a great sense of humor Between him and Scott and all of the comments, man it made me feel better.

I have been sort of in the dumps lately and rightfully so. There is some crappy stuff going on and stuff to be happy about but I just could not get out of the dumps.

Last night our very good family friend decided to drop by and give us a present he bought for our family for Christmas. He is going to be busy all week and will not see us before Christmas so he wanted to come by and give us a gift he got for the whole family. He is one of those people that loves to see people open the gift he purchases to see their reaction.

I should tell you that Anthony is a very good friend and my kids call him "Uncle" so the dude knows me and my family very well. I think I probably got more excited then anyone else when Gillian opened the gift.

**On a side note, Gillian asked who should open the gift and I said, "You open it sweety since you are the newest member of the family." HA HA**

When she opened the gift I saw this...


So sweet. I have already beat the game in Easy and Medium mode. I think that is all I am allowed to do at this age. My rock star fantasy days are long gone. One of these days I will have to post some pictures of my band and how crazy I looked way back then. ha ha ha

Anyhow, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who commented on my last post. I know it was harsh and a little disturbing but a very good OC friend of mine told me to always just be yourself when you write which is what I do.

I think about terrible things like that occasionally and I think we all do sometimes. I guess I was too close to a computer when those bad thoughts hit me and you were its victims. Sorry about that.

So I will leave you with this.

Now that's a handy meter. With a question like that, no wonder Scott is looking so ticked off.

I'm glad the laughs helped out. There's nothing like a good laugh for making everything feel better is there?

hahaha, WTF moment on the glucometer. Bob asked me for guitar hero for christmas, before he picked out a cymbal he liked more. i still think the game would be cool

HVS said...

Thats funny. Have you seen the "Meter after Christmas Dinner" one-it reminds me of that..
Great present. I think that's definatly hot this Christmas, the local stores seem to be doing a brisk business in selling them.

After this slew of photoshops, I shall never be able to look at an Ultrasmart the same without seeing George, or Scott's, or Bernard's face staring back at me.

Jamie said...

Oh man - you guys crack me up. I have a picture on my computer with a glucose monitor that says (pardon the language please) "Oh Shit" on it.

That game looks super cool. My husband would LOVE to try it :)

That's awesome! My meter needs to get a little saucier..

Allison said...

Quite possibly the funniest thing I have ever seen.

Keith said...

George, I burst out laughing when I saw the meter and even now I can't quit chuckling.

Thanks for a great laugh!

Oh.................I'm gonna split a gut.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!

That's sweet man!! If I have this much fun posting pictures, I'm going to have to put more out there!

That game looks awesome - I've heard a lot about it, and I think it sounds PERFECT for you guys.

Kevin said...

These pics rock.
Rock like a guitar hero, that is...

I've been laughing my ass of this whole thread, between you and Bernard and Scott.

My own UltraSmart looks wicked boring now. :) You guys are too damn much.

Kate said...

You three (George, Bernard, and Scott) should do diabetes improv- Whose line is it anyway for people with diabetes. You just feed so well off each other's humor:) Friends of mine have both Guitar Heros and they are fun to play if you know and love the songs. Rock on!

I wish my meter would do that!
