HRH

I was feeling a bit off so I went to check my blood sugar and as expected, it was low (not too badly though, it was only 50). So I decided to have ice cream since it would both raise my b/g quickly, and also be delicious lol


When I got back, the movie The Queen was on. I hadn't seen it yet so I figured I might as well watch it. It's only been on about 20 minutes now. Anyway, the part - Spoiler if you haven't seen it! - where Diana is announced dead has just happened. (I saw the accident scene a bit ago so I knew it was coming up soon.)


This brought up a memory I had about all this. I've had it several times over the years, particularly when the anniversary of her death comes up. The Paparazzi shown chasing Diana & Dodi in the car is what brought it up this time. Years ago, before Diana died, some group or other had photos of Diana with marks on her leg. I remember them making (their usual rude comments at that) comments about her having cellulite on her thigh and someone (whether it was official or not, I don't remember...I was still a kid at the time!) defending her saying that she'd been sitting on a stool and it was just marks on her leg. (Whatever! Who cares if it was cellulite or not?)


So the thought I've had over the years is this: How did those people feel after making comments like that? Did they even think about it? You made meaningless and nasty (although they could have been worse) remarks about someone and later you (not personally obviously but still  people of the 'press') are most likely at least partially responsible for her death.


I know if it had bee ME, I would think about that for the rest of my life. I would feel horrible. I know they are "just doing their job" but it is still a choice. I don't understand it really. I mean, I like hearing about this celeb or that doing things...but I like to hear about the good things. A charitable cause. A marriage. A baby.


Anyway, just one of those random thoughts I had/have. I'll be back sooner or later to catch up on everything else. I've just been kind of antisocial lately, at least online. It happens, but I'll definitely be back.
