I scored a 242 this Friday!

No, that’s not my personal best at Wii Bowling, I think it’s close though. I’ll look it up to confirm later.

Sadly, it was my Cholesterol score when I went to my heart screening at Apple this week. When I saw how dark my blood was, I’m surprised it didn’t morph into a Whataburger BBQ-Cheddar Special. I totally aced Diabetes, 100! The Blood Pressure section was skewed in my opinion because Somara’s operation and aftermath has heightened my anxiety. As if it being an election year with an imploding economy weren’t enough. Oh, I had 122 Systolic over 100 Diastolic which is lousy.

I’m not worried nor do I require a Lipitor-flavored shake to go with my Whataburger and fries. Cholesterol being under 240 or even 225 is my immediate goal. It shouldn’t be hard to achieve since I’m married to a culinary-school graduate, honor roll too. I just have to get off my fat behind to go exercise vigorously 30 minutes a day. I could tell by the look on the nurse’s face that Wii-based sports don’t count, unless it’s DDR.

At least she has me pencilled in for my first physical in 22 years this Spring.

Mar 23, 2008 Update: I checked the Wii this afternoon and yup, 242 is my best game at bowling too. Getting to my best golf score of -1 (based upon three holes) would be Science Fiction though.
