I just fed Oscar some pâté and gave him one unit of insulin from his own lantus pen. He didn’t seem to notice when I stuck him, which is great! Too busy munching to care I guess. I checked to see what one unit looks like and it is barely noticeable, it was a teeny weeny little orb of liquid on the end of the needle. I am left wondering how that little drop could help! Maybe I don’t understand that well since I myself am on 45 units twice a day 😅 Thank God for that freaking insurance because he’s going to have a lot of vet visits. I kind of knew this would happen! *pats self on back* I made a good decision on my own, without anyone suggesting it or telling me how to do anything! I don’t think I’ve really done that before, especially with something like insurance. I know that’s kind of unbelievable, but remember the autism and other cognitive stuff. I never had to make any decisions of that type. No one ever thought I’d be able to live alone either, but here I am, being an adult…sort of 😸 lol
He’s being a lap cat at the moment, probably because he’s happy he got wet food twice today. He’s not getting dry food anymore. I don’t think he likes the “stink cereal” anyways. I don’t know if treats are allowed either, but there were a couple good questions including that, that I forgot to ask. I wanted to know if he would walk normally again once his diabetes gets under control, if that’s what’s causing it anyhow. He’s going back to get his sugar tested next week, so I’ll ask then.
And on an entirely different topic…
I was having a conversation with mom about old horror movies. Mom would go to her grandmas house to watch the block of Hammer Horror movies that were on one of the three existing channels, because they didn’t have a TV set yet. That made me think of one channel I watched that also had a block of time for horror movies once a week. I was trying to find what it was called in the late 2000s/early 2010s. Keep in mind this was circa 1989. It had a particular ad promoting it that I remember pretty well, it was a bathtub full of blood and a hand covered in blood (duh) reaches out of it. It always scared me but I loved it because I was a baby horror hound thanks to dad 😬 I was trying so hard to remember the channel. TBS popped in my head but I don’t know. I tried this one site that was just for that, finding things people remembered from childhood but just couldn’t remember what exactly it was called or whatever. I was not able to find anything. I wonder if that site is still around, since there’s now a subreddit for the exact same thing. I’m not posting on Reddit because it’s a toxic shitshow 😅 ugh. I’m trying to find the image of the bloody bathtub hand. It would be a lot easier if I knew the name of the fucking thing! Idk, this is something that’s been annoying me for a couple decades. Don’t know why! Maybe because it’s something that’s stuck with me for 35-36 freaking years! I was able to find the block of cartoons (and my first anime! Ronin Warriors!) I used to watch circa 1992-ish, the name of it, when it was on, the channel and all that. But I have not been able to find this! I look for these things out of nostalgia. Nostalgia is a strong emotion, as I’m sure you know. It’s also one of the nicest feelings imo. I love being able to put a name on the mysterious things I used to watch that I couldn’t identify before. I still have a few things I haven’t found, namely movies I saw that I only remember little parts of, and would love to watch them again. I know I’ll have a wicked dopamine rush when I finally figure them out! 😸
Yes, I’m stuck in the past which is fine with me, because the present sucks 😂
EDIT: I despise AI art. It’s soulless. I would much rather buy art made by humans, that you can SEE it’s made by an actual person! I was looking at prints on Etsy and people were using AI. I felt so disappointed. I don’t want AI slop on my wall. Sometimes I can live with it, like with my “Screaming Possums” calendar I got on Temu. Of course the pictures were gonna be AI, I expected that. But selling prints of “art” made with AI, SIGNED prints mind you, is just freakin diabolical. Don’t piss up my leg and tell me it’s raining. 🙄
Another thing is…I don’t think I’m a Christian anymore. I’ve felt like this for a couple of days now. I’m simply not made for it, never was. And the old gods were calling me back…
