Annual physical today. Well, annual plus 1.5 years. I have, according to my doctor, the blood pressure of a teenager. 120/70, which is low for a doctor's office reading, given that I have in the past been a card-carrying member of the White Coat Syndrome Club.
Cholesterol's down a little. HDL is up and LDL is down, thanks to the running. I've lost a few pounds, though not as many as I'd hoped. Need to follow up on an issue that has proven non-serious in the past and will hopefully continue to do so. Need to schedule a test that I've been putting off for a few years but need to have now that I will be turning 50. *blech*
Fingers crossed the old carcass will continue to see me through.
In other news, the weather is insane. Mid 40s (F) this morning. Tomorrow morning, we may hit 0 F, with windchills of 25 below. A little snow, but the main issues will be black ice and whiteout conditions due to the wind gusts of up to 45 mph.
Can you say, "Utter bullshit"? Sure, I knew you could.
