Sometimes I feel productive, sometimes I don't. I didn't realize, however, just how much more productive I can sometimes be.

Recently, my Diabetes doctor here in the USA suggested we try using Lantus instead of Levemir. The Levemir wasn't working so well, as shown by a continuous blood glucose monitor over a period of four days.

One and a half weeks later, I'm still trialing the Lantus, but I'm starting to see some effects. First off - the last two days I've awoken with a normal blood glucose range! .. this is great!

But more importantly, these last two days I've been healthier than I have been in YEARS.. all thanks to this new doctor I've got. One interesting thing that happened without my consent.. time slower down.

I mean, who wants that to happen? It's lunch time now, it's been lunch time for at least a few hours by my normal standards. Time is ticking by very very very slowly. I'm getting a lot done. Yesterday I worked on WebVelocity, OpenGL, Multicore, SharedMemory and some other misc stuff. Today is only half over and I've done a lot more work than I normally get through already too.

So much so, I'm starting to realize that "getting up in the morning" means I have lots of time to shower, eat breakfast, etc instead of jumping straight in to work. I have -time-... I haven't had time since I was a kid. Now it's lunch time.. the clock is slowly ticking away and I've realized I have plenty of time to go out and buy myself something to eat and come home.. normally I'd just keep working because I don't have that much time.

Hopefully my brain won't burn up or something.

Anyway.. I thought people should know that if you feel like you don't have time to do the basics as well as doing your work.. may be there's something medically wrong with you that can be fixed?
