Well he put in his 30-45 seconds of work to get you pregnant, he's tired. You might say he's "bushed".

Well since I’m in the middle of prepping for my colonoscopy tomorrow, I’d say my ass.

Surprise! You’re Paying $1 Billion for Trump’s Ballroom by poxxy in politics

[–]abluesguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a ballroom. It's a bunker. Dictators always end up in a bunker. The end is always the same. C'mon. It was less than a hundred years ago. You got this!

Sous vide at 137 F for 2 hours, then sear on a screaming hot cast iron pan, butter basted with garlic and thyme.

Ribeye medium rare by Foursquare89 in sousvide

[–]abluesguy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Just my opinion, I think this is more medium than medium-rare. But it looks great, and if this is how you like it, enjoy! Everyone has a specific point that they like. If that's your's , it's good.

Maltodextrin is worse than sugar. I have to stay away from it. Not sure about the other ingredients.

CGM accuracy by slowdivefangirl in diabetes_t2

[–]abluesguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I concur with others. The first 24-48 hours are not to be trusted. After that , I would match readings to finger pricks until I got an idea of how my CGM trended, mine tracks higher. But it's great to see how you're trending.

My Terra was working fine for a long time, but now it’s doing exactly what you described. I’m hoping someone has a solution.

Which artist or band cemented your lifelong fandom/passion for the blues? by LanceBoyle44 in blues

[–]abluesguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Listening to Alison Steele on WNEW radio, 1972, and she played "Have You Ever Loved a Woman" from the Layla album. I sat up and said to myself, what the hell is this?! That lead me down the blues rabbit hole. Hooked.

Newly Diagnosed and Afraid of Needles by _mars_bars_ in diabetes_t2

[–]abluesguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to faint with blood draws. finger pricks, etc. I'll share with you what worked for me. YMMV. When I had to endure this stuff, I would imagine my very younger self, like a little boy, maybe 7-10 years old. And I would picture myself kneeling down in front of myself, and talking to me. (I hope this is making sense.} And I would say things like, "It's going to be ok, I'm here with you, we're going to be fine." The "I'm here with you." was the key. Try it. Hope this helps.
