@kdfrawg unfortunately, as my wife is finding out, the options in our area are limited. Even so just because he prescribes the meds doesn’t mean I have to take them. ?

@kdfrawg I take the cash from my Costco card versus miles. ?

@kdfrawg that's kinda what I thought. I may start making the case after my next blood work.

@kdfrawg I still fly a fair bit of coach. I'm also hoping that I can get enough transatlantic trips scheduled that I can start flying business class for those legs. :P

I have no idea if it's attainable, but I'm not gonna let it stop me from trying. :P

I did ask my doctor today: so at what point would you consider taking me off Metformin? His response: when my A1C was 5 or less. That's a bit lower than I was expecting…

I suspect mine isn't a whole lot better. I was just lucky and married someone smarter than me :)

stayed up a little later than I was expecting… but that's how these things go.

It looks like phoneboy.com is up and running on the new VPS…and I even have a podcast queued up to publish in a few hours. It should publish, but you know how these things go.

the new VPS has double the monthly bandwidth, RAM, and CPU of my previous one. Not that I'm using anywhere near it's capacity now, but it's always nice to get better value for money… and upgrade to a later version of Ubuntu in the process.
