call me what you will...

but those finger prickers for diabetes testing HURT!!!


I think appropriate pronouns would include:
Wimp
Baby
Sissy




Yup, gestational diabetes and I are going to become well aquanited with one another these last 8 weeks.  I've got my gestational diabetes diet plan and finger pricker and an unanswerable craving for chocolate...specifically Kemps Double Fudge Moose Tracks Ice Cream. 

Hmm...hopefully Self-Controlled is another noun I could be called.
