Wahoo! A1C down to 5.7 from 11 in March!

Spinal Tap said my A1C was 11 back in March. Friday it was at 5.7!

I've cut out most carbs, waay back on sugar, and lost about 15 pounds.

Sylvania SDVD1566 Portable Player only plays upside down

When setting upright, it says "no disc" after trying to spin up for about 20 seconds. If I hold the player upside down, it will play.

Troubleshooting Steps:

- Used compressed air to clean off the inside and laser lens.

- Tried different plugs.

- Tried multiple DVDs.

Any ideas on a fix WITHOUT having to take it to a shop?

Got a cup of coffee before filling their tank at a full gas station

This might go under "semi-EntitledPeople" or "obliviousPeople".

I pull into a full gas station behind a smaller SUV to fill up. I drive a minivan so it takes a while to fill my car, 11+ gallons. When I'm done and ready to leave I notice the gas cap on the car in front was off. That's strange; maybe they are inside paying and forgot to replace it. I wait a minute and the driver comes out with a cup of coffee and then proceeds to start to fill their tank. I have to back all the way out.

I'm guessing they were inside paying with cash and needed some coffee which I totally get, but just seemed oblivious at best as the gas station was full.

Edit: we pulled in at the same time, but from the responses I guess I should have posted this in AITH! LOL.

Edit2: it turns out, I’m the entitled person. I forgot I used to check/fill up my oil after getting gas.
