The other day, my cousin H e-mailed and was all, "Hey man it's May 5 and you haven't blogged yet this month. You're slacking."

"I know, I know," I told her. "But I made a real effort to blog most week days last month and I think I'm a little burned out."

That seems to be what happens to me. I go in cycles of having tons of d-related things to write about and then there's a d-slump. There's a stretch of time when it's just eat, test, repeat. Which is fine, but leaves a lot to be desired in the blogging department.

It got so "bad" that earlier this week I tried very hard for a full day to compose a post about how one -- ONE! -- post prandial (OK it was a whole day of post prandials) had me wanting to leave this new site in this new spot for the rest of my life. The back story: I'm always high on site-change days no matter what I do. And I somehow manage to eat high-carb breakfasts on those days (always change my site before breakfast), which makes me extra super high on site-change days. So when Tuesday's site-change and high-carb breakfast left me at 102 mg/dL at two hours I nearly had a heart attack and was all, "Oh man I *have* to find a way to write about this!" And then came to my senses and realized that you guys probably don't want to read 300 words about how my numbers have been absolutely, magnificently fabulous since I put this site in and don't want to ever, ever, ever change it. But there I go... I've already written 118 words about it (go ahead and count up to "ever change it.").

Anyway, I think what I'm getting at is that we -- at least I -- really relish the times when diabetes is just plain boring. The eat, test, sleep, test, exercise, test, repeat thing is really fine and dandy, but it certainly doesn't leave much for us to write about.

So Friday morning I will begrudgingly change my site since I will have gone three full days with my favorite site ever. Perhaps then I'll have something readable to write about.
