The doctor is so cute.  And so nice and so straightforward and so not full of nonsense.  He suggested that before we go back to the expensive blood pressure drug we try a beta blocker.  I have have no idea what a beta blocker is or what it does or how it does it and I don't really care as long as it keeps my blood pressure down low enough so that Man doctor doesn't get all stressed.  The term beta blocker, however, always conjures up an image of a beautiful fish meeting a really large mean guy with a gun.

So new pills and I'm done.  Oh and he wants to see me in 2 weeks and give me a physical which is just means I get naked and he pokes around in places while telling me to relax.  It takes 30 minutes.  Oh and he gets blood which means I can't eat before I go.  The earliest in the day they had an opening in two weeks was 1:45.  I don't think so.  So we settled on Oct. 3rd.  I have enough of the new fish killers to last until then.

Then home to work and then off to lunch.

Seeing Matt and Kenny was great.  Susan didn't make it so it was just the three of us catching up.  They are the greatest guys.  Matt's probably in his late 30's - young enough to be my son and Kenny is young enough to be my grandson and yet they are just buddies.  We talked about everyone we knew and got all caught up and I learned the company is now about 5 times larger in terms of employees than it was when I was there and it has a new name.  Matt's baby boy is now 11 and Kenny's girlfriend changed her job so she could move from Shanghai to the Northwest and now, not only has she not moved, she is traveling all over the world.  The wedding is still scheduled for someday.

The great burger place was not serving burgers today.  sob.  Their fans were broken so no hot food.  We went a couple of doors down to a place that had burgers but they were not great.  Didn't matter.  Company was good.

Boss just called with a little gig for me that I think I'll get started on right now.  I told him I'd do it over the weekend but, there happens to be room on my plate right this minute.  Might as well use it!
