I'm never at a constant number. I'll be 95, which is a great number, but I'll have to drink something so I don't keep dropping. Basically, I can never be at a steady, stable number without dropping, which results in me having a comfort zone at higher numbers

Right here is the key problem.
You don't just take NPH and humalog really. You need to learn the principles and reasoning of the basal/bolus method, where if your basal insulin dose is correctly titrated you will tend to remain steady without dropping.
Think Like a Pancreas is an excellent book by Gary Scheiner to explain basal and bolus -- you should also check with your doctor about seeing a diabetes educator who might be able to help teach you about it, along with carb counting for your meals.
