Hi all! I was diagnosed type 1 in 1994, just thought I would drop in and say hi to my fellow pin-cushions. It sure is nice to talk to people who've been there too..I get my first pump tomorrow and I am so excited! Wish me luck!

Do you know what perfect pitch is?

I been stuck, so I asked her why
She gave me diabetes as her alibi
Shook my soul, and stole my dough
Left my condition down a deep dark hole
I'm a pincushion, gotta face the facts
I'm just a pincushion, do everything she ask
I get nailed every now and then
I get my mojo working but I'm pinned again
I'm a pincushion, gotta face the facts
I'm just a pincushion, do everything she asks
I'm getting pricked around and puncture'd
I let my ya ya down, I got penetrated
I'm a pincushion, gotta face the facts
I'm just a pincushion, do everything she asks
I'm a pincushion, gotta face the facts
I'm just a pincushion, do everything she asks

| | | Bibby,
Welcome to the forums and the very best of luck with your pump. This is a great place with loads of great people, lots of pumpers here (I'm not one, but they let me play anyway).
Love the "Paddle faster ..." signature!
Keith,
That's cool, is it your own composition?

| | | LMAO, Keith. I'm glad I didn't have to explain the logo to you (we must have the same bad taste in movies) To everybody else, thanks for welcoming me!
