What's up, Doc?

I figured I should give you a little report of what I did during my trip. The main thing was, of course, to visit my mom, but I also saw some old friends, had my teeth cleaned and checked, had my not-quite-annual physical, and got my eyes examined.

My eyes, teeth, and most of my vital statistics were unchanged (or not significantly different). The one thing that did change -- and it improved -- was my good cholesterol level, which went up. I'm not sure what I've been doing differently, unless it's having that handful of almonds as a mid-morning snack. Now back to my struggle with portion control.
