Morning notes

It turns out that the reason this particular bunch of shaving gel absolutely failed to foam up well is that it was shampoo.

I'm off for a checkup this morning. Time to update the blood chemistry tests, and I'm really looking forward to finding out what's up.
 

I saw the witch doctor, er, nurse practitioner, and he told me what to do

This morning's appointment went very well. I'm happy with my progress. Dave is really happy with my progress. We reviewed my diet, blood glucose readings, exercise history, some personal developments, and like that, and he sees much to be happy with. He thinks I'm being a good patient, which makes me happy, as I'm trying to be.

My blood pressure sucks. A lot. It was 200/112 in his office at 9 am. This is not good. I am therefore going to try some blood pressure medication for a couple weeks, and go in for a quick reappraisal the week after Thanksgiving. He is confident that we'll find the thing that helps, though.
