What thing that you do every day or nearly every day do you dread most?
If I was a normal person I would say brushing my teeth because toothpaste burns my tongue and listerine sets my moth on fire, but I am not normal.
I am Type 2 Diabetic, which means every day I have to inject insulin every time I eat and twice before bed. I also have to stick my finger with a lancet and bleed on a test strip to check my sugar.
None of this activity is really painful (very occassionally a shot will burn or I will prick my finger right on a nerve), most of the time. In fact the needles are so small I usually don't feel anything, but it is the most tedious task of my day.
I have known some opeople so afraid of needles I think they would die of diabetes before they took shots. For me all things considered it isn't that bad. The only real pisser is when I go over to a friends house or McDonalds on a whim and don't have my insulin along.......Oh well.....What is your daily dreaded task?
