Rude Behavior

Last week I got my first sensor error.  And then this happened 😉

Me: You don’t need to yell at me Mister!
Dex: Oh yes I do.  I am tired and I don’t want to sense you anymore. So I’m taking a break. *hmph*
Me: Oh, YOU’RE tired.  You’ve been working for six weeks.  I’ve been working for 23 years and I don’t get a break!  So buckle up and buckle down Dexy, you will work for me!
Dex: But my sleep habits are different than yours and you won’t play with me when I want you to!  I want to sleep now!
Me: THAT is because you think it’s fun to play in the middle of the night and tell me I’m low or high over and over and over again!  When it is dark outside, it is time to sleep!  When the sun is shining is when it’s okay to talk to me, and you definitely can’t just decide to sleep or take a break whenever you please!  This behavior is unacceptable!
Dex: I don’t agree
Me: I don’t care if you agree, you need to learn your place!  A gentle nudge would do instead of the fire alarm and a one time warning.  ESPECIALLY when you can’t count correctly!
Dex: Well you’re asking a lot missy!
Me: My pancreas is the one who asked a lot of me when it decided to stop working, so stop doing the same and GET BACK TO WORK!!

Sometimes you just need to put your diabetes technology in it’s place.
