This Morning's Blood Pressure Check

126/76 at 67 bpm

A friend of mine is in medical school right now (and tends to make things up, so keep that in mind) told me last night that there are recent studies showing that the previous normal of 130/85 is actually high and that the optimal level is lower than 120/80.

I really don't know, so I will probably do a little research on blood pressure here in the next few weeks.

Meanwhile, I met a friend of said friend who lives here in New York and has a recommendation for a new doctor for me.

I Do Not Take the Drugs

But I love this song.

Where I'm From

By Shelby Lynne

Heaven knows this ain’t no Margaret Mitchell
But the oak trees needs the pines
I know it might sound kinda simple
Lord, but it’s mine Oh, it’s mine

Thought I heard a logman cuttin’ timber
Down the Mississippi line
I’m up the Old Tombigbee River
High as the pines, all the time

Elégamment les bateaux passent
Pendant le flotte avec le vent
All I’m trying to say is
I’m never far away from the
Alabama frame of mind

Jubilation risin’ on the bayou
Celebration in the wind
Father Pat gives benediction
Cross the Coden Cridge again

Crickets spreadin’ rumors by the shoreline
With the lonesome lady wine
Crab trap full of nothin
I’m high as the tide, all the time

Elégamment les bateaux passent
Pendant le flotte avec le vent
All I’m trying to say is
I’m never far away from the
Alabama frame of mind

All I’m trying to say is
I’m never far away from the
Alabama frame of mind

Again, this is my best transcription. I don't speak French (And it would seem she doesn't either) so I had a hard time with those lines. The best thing I could think was that it's to say "Elegantly the boats pass as I float with the wind." I totally made that up while searching for words in French that could be pronounced the way she does in the song.
