man i hate my job. it's bad enough that it's completely mindless, that i spent 6 years in college and grad school to work in a place where only a ged is required, that one of my oldest friends is actually my supervisor--causing unending tension, but today i got in trouble for talking!!! wtf?!?! i thought i was done with that when i got outta high school. argh!!
whatever.
i joined a gym today and am going to start training for a triathlon of all things. my athletic friend swears it will only take 10 weeks, but i'm skeptical.
so, anyone following the blood pressure saga, i had a friend at work take it today and it was 126/80-something, which is better than the 130/100 it was yesterday, but still high. i don't get it--i don't smoke, i'm not fat, i eat fairly well, no drugs ('cept the pill, but i've been on that for years). and it seems to have only started rising in the past couple of weeks. i see the doc tomorrow.

If you want to lower your blood pressure just hang out with me for awhile, I'll get your blood pressure down. I'll bore you to do death. Some people call it laid back. Some call it nothing to say. I may call it a self deprecating sense of humor, but seriously swimming will lower your blood pressure unlike anything. After I started swimming regularly the doctor thought I was dead, my heart was beating so slow. I'm hoping it means I'll live a long fucking time. I've always aspired to be that cute old man.
Oh and avoid stress, like thats even a possibility these days.
Did you go to the Flaming Lips show? It raised my heart rate in a good way. The film footage with the disco ball and the topless dancing drunk woman was hauntingly beautiful. "Do you realize" was so good, it just relaxes the hell out of me to think I'm going to die some day, finally I'll get some sleep.
My reasoning is so circular, it is my favorite form.
