    I have to take a blood test basically once every two to three months. I've been doing this for over the last 10 years, so I've gotten used to them. Of course I used to be afraid, but now needles are like nothing.

    Similar for me. I have to get blood drawn several times a year to check thyroid function. Got over my fear of needles pretty fast.

    I usually look the other way tho when getting poked.

    I really hate those! :yeahno:

    I hear ya. I was hoping it would work out so I could enjoy a bit of ice cream without blowing my carb limit. Tho, in that regard it works but the symptoms afterwards... gonna have to pass
     

    Looks like I'm better off just having the real thing on a cheat day once in a while

  3. Pretty sure I pulled something in my shoulder earlier. I was moving my tools into the shop and decided that I didn't need to empty the drawers in my tool box. Yeah, I picked it up and currently paying the price.

    I can be hardheaded sometimes

  4. Initially, I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into with the new generation movie but decided to give it a chance a few days ago. I was actually pretty aggravated (unrelated to the movie) the evening I watched it but noticed how relaxed I was at the end. A good indicator that the movie was enjoyable  :twi:

    The intro with G4 was great in my opinion, especially the ridiculous expressions from Rarity at the "fry brains" part. lol. I'm usually not into movie songs much, but found these to be good, actually, especially "Gonna Be My Day, Fit Right In, and Danger Danger. The latter actually sounded familiar and yep, it's definitely inspired by Self Esteem by The Offspring. Great song, btw. I found the antics and stereotypes presented to be funny. The unicorns being superstitious with certain words and chanting "bing bong" was a good example.

    The movie did raise some questions tho, mainly with how the ponies forgot about friendship. Also, what happened to Sunny's father? It appears that he had passed away at some point. In the beginning when Sunny was a foal her father didn't look that old or anything. Not sure if it's me or not but the last 3rd or so of the movie seemed to move pretty fast

    Overall, I really like the movie and look forward to the series.

  5. I have 3 TV's in the house. 2 in the living room and one in my bedroom

    Living room: 60" Samsung 1080p on top of the entertainment center and a 1984 Zenith Space Command CRT below it.

    Bedroom: 32" Hitachi CRT TV for classic video games. This set has component input, which produces an amazing picture.

  6. For the most part, I'd say my diet is healthy. I eat a generic low carb diet now that I'm nearing my target weight. Was on keto for several months prior to switching over.

    I still eat a few unhealthy items such as biscuits but I make sure to stay below 100g of carbohydrates for the day. Could improve by incorporating more non starchy vegetables

  7. Antibody test came back negative, so no covid antibodies. Pretty much decided to pass on the current crop of vaccines, especially with the availability of Regeneron Monoclonal Antibodies. Gonna continue to take Vitamin D and work on improving my health with diet and weight loss (almost at target weight)

    Would consider Novavax's vaccine since its based on traditional technology but that one isn't available yet to my knowledge.

  8. I'd actually like to visit Alaska. Aside from seeing the Northern Lights, I also want to experience winter solstice, where the sun doesn't even rise above the horizon for a few days. That is just wild to me since we never experience that at lower latitudes.

    Night time makes me anxious. That's probably why I try to sleep when it gets bright outside.

    Indoor darkness makes me a tad uneasy since it can be pitch black. But outdoors, I'm fine since I have great night vision. Can see my surrounding pretty good with the night sky alone
