Physical this past Friday:
Pulse rate: 71
BP: 119 over 70
Total Cholesterol: 132
Blood Glucose: 99
BMI: 26.5
All of the above are really good numbers for someone now pushing 50.
But here is the deal, the Doc said my liver enzymes are way too high. Basically said if I don't stop drinking, I won't make it to 60. That fucking sucks because I really like to drink. I am going on an Alaskan cruise with the family next month. I really can't fathom not walking down to the bar at 9am and getting a Bloody Mary. Always loved bullshitting with the Indonesian bartender when nobody else is there. I don't think I ever had a true breakfast on a cruise. Two Bloody Marys with celery and olives, name me a better breakfast. Now apparently I will be toasting an english muffin with jam and a coffee. That is just a beat. Bloody Mary at an empty bar with an Indonesian or waiting in line at a toaster with some farmer goober so excited they get unlimited bread products, do the math on that one.
