The middle of January I received an email from Dexcom about upgrading my 7+ to the new G4. I had originally decided to hold off. After all, George was only 8 months old and was working fine. Why would I want to replace him? (Yes.. you can all gasp and shake your head at me now.) However, the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like a good idea. Who knows how long it'll take the G5 to receive final approval? Now, I'm a patient person.. most of the time.. but I didn't want to wait that long. So... I ordered my G4.
Friday, he arrived.
I was so EXCITED!! Had I still had noise makers left over from New Year's my neighbors would have thought I had lost my mind. Unfortunately, he didn't come with any sensors (maybe because he was an upgrade and not a new purchase? Who knows). I still had some sensors for George so I wasn't going to be without my "I-feel-like-I-have-to-check-it-more-often-than-I-really-do-because-it-is-so-awesome" graph. In fact, it gives me time to name him.
This is where you come in. I need help naming him.
Isn't he pretty? |
I have a two rules to naming my robotic body parts:
- Only my pump can have a female name: Freeda.
- No part can have the same name as someone I know. (Side note: When I got George, I was not on Twitter and didn't know Ninjabetic. He is offically the first human George I know.)
Hank Hank the G4 Tank!
ReplyDeleteI like Hank! However, the 7+ is a bit more "tankier" than the G4.
DeleteDex. Or is that too original? :) George the second. As in a King George. Oh, that's it. Richard the Lionhearted.
ReplyDeleteHaha.. Can't do Dex, others have. George Jr....hmm.. that's a thought. I know a Richard.. a couple Richards. Hmm.. I like the theme though, I will have to think on that.
DeleteWell, you could go with the Dexy's Midnight Runners theme and name it after the 80's pop group's lead singer: Kevin (especially if the audible alerts are in the form of "Too-ra-loo-ra, too-ra-loo-rye, aye"), though if it were me I'd delve 100% into the song and name it Eileen.
ReplyDeleteI hope this makes sense to you and I'm not just showing signs of my age...
It does make sense.. AND your age is showing. I know a couple Kevin's so that wouldn't work. Has to be a boy name, so maybe Mick.. or Archer... Hmm.. more contemplation needed.
DeleteI vote for Daryl :-) BK
ReplyDeleteAs in.. "..and my other brother Daryl."
DeleteSir cornelius wigglesworth the fourth. :-)
