Island in the Net by Khürt Williams
Technology and Photography Musings. Established circa 2000.
Today it rained while the sun shone brightly in the sky, something called in ?”sunshower”?. Around the world there is much folklore surrounding the phenomenon. The lower Caribbean variant is "The devil and his wife are fighting for a bone". At least, that’??s what my grandmother used to tell me when I was a boy.
This is perhaps the worst photograph I’ve shot this year. I feel off my game. I’m frustrated and impatient with the results of my efforts to achieve the goals I’ve set for myself. I feel like I’m running to stand still.
Anyway, today I bought this bottle of Blk. I think it’s meant to be pronounced “black” but the way I feel it could be “bleak”. What a difference two letters make. The bottle contained a black liquid which is described as “spring water infused with Fulvic acid”. It tastes like water. I think some marketing “genius” thinks he/she can outdo “Smartwater” and VOSS. Got me once. Not again.
I hate that you think diabetes is all about sugar and if I just avoided it, everything would be fine. I hate it that you think insulin is a cure. I hate it that you think it'??s ok that I attend a late afternoon social event where the only thing available to eat is ice cream, pretzels and other carbohydrate laden foods and the only thing to drink is high-fructose corn syrup drinks or water. I hate it that you think I can "just take extra insulin"? or that you have some wonderful great idea on how to managed that neither myself nor my doctor has considered. I hate it that you think my diabetes situation is just like your uncle or aunt who eats anything they like. I hate it but really, I?'m afraid. I'm afraid that there are way too may ignorant people like you, who just don't get it.
