Back off, man. I'm a scientist.

Porn aside, it's the weekend. Why is it that 4-day weeks always seem to be LONGER than normal 5-day weeks? It's a conundrum I'll never solve, I know. Regardless, hooray weekend. Even though it's raining outside. So, as I thought, I went to see my primary doc yesterday for a cholesterol check, and as I thought, it was abysmal. Numbers are virtually unchanged from 4 months ago, and as this is now the third strike, I've been put on cholesterol medication. This also means that I now have to take the same rigorous approach to this as I did with my Crohn's. I'm 22, I should NOT be put on cholesterol medication, but I am. And you may be wondering why I didn't do more to lower it in the first place...because, like most humans on the planet, they don't do anything about it until it physically begins to affect them. In the case of my Crohn's, it was causing me physical pain and random high fevers, so I wanted to get that under control fast. In the case of cholesterol, to me, it was just a number. Physically, I'm still fine, pain-free, so who gives a shit? But now I have to take another rigorous attack to it, and so I am, because ultimately it will affect me the moment I drop dead from a heart attack or stroke. Also, I'd love to get the doctors to shut up. So that's that.
In other news, why is it that I bowl my best when it's not in competition league play? 2 weeks ago, the day after league play (which would be the Thursday dollar nights), I bowl much better. In the last 2 Thursday sessions, I've had a 200+ game. Two days ago, I bowled a new personal best--212. I bowled good in league play on Wednesday as well, all 3 games were above my average, but I'd like to get the 200 games in league play, thank you very much.
So I go to Cape Cod in less than a week, bringing April, my dad and his fiance over for my sister's graduation. However, I'm more looking forward to the trip in August, where I get to play wedding photographer. :)
Plans for today...going to April's parents' to celebrate Ryan's birthday. Tomorrow, however, probably some cleaning, and putting up the poll for you to decide the next character battle contest. For now, though, gonna do a spot of gaming before heading over there.
