I wrote last month about my diabetes diagnosis this year and my difficult choice to wear a proprietary device (called a CGM) on my arm 24/7 to continuously monitor my glucose levels. Like my friend and colleague, Karen M. Sandler — who previously made a much higher-stakes choice to receive a proprietary implanted defibrillator to keep her safe given her genetic heart condition — I reluctantly chose to attach proprietary hardware and software to my body.

    A times B times C equals X…If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don’t do one.

      The older I get, the more I understand (I mean, really understand) Tyler Durden. And I hate that this is so.

      Edit. Put the parenthetical in the wrong place

        Always use the indefinite article… “a”, never “your”. 😉

          It’s more fun on a rewatch. Going in knowing you catch a lot of things you missed the first time.
