Tests (including one meaningful one)

I got the results back from my cholesterol test today. They're apparently "excellent" (last time I got a booklet about healthy diets along with my results so this is a definite improvement). I tried to find my last results but failed. Sadly I do a much better job of keeping stuff around than I do of organizing it. I know I have the old results, but they weren't in the first few places I looked.

Triglycerides: 63
Total Cholesterol: 179
HDL Cholesterol: 50
LDL Cholesterol: 116
CHDL/HDLC Ratio: 3.6

These numbers seem good, although apparently low cholesterol can make you depressed. Even more cholesterol info. (I didn't really pay that much attention when I got the slightly high numbers but now I'm all curious because I got good results. Odd.)

I watched a couple episodes of The X-Files tonight, both suggestions recorded by my TiVo. I really like the wackier episodes like the ones I watched (Rain King and War of the Coprophages). My favorite episode is Jose Chung's From Outer Space.

Oooh, that's a good one too.

I wish you could order certain episodes of a series on DVD instead of having to buy entire seasons (or do something nefarious and wrong with the internet or DVD copying software).

I ended up watching Jose Chung's as well tonight.

I remember reading that hypotension (low blood pressure) is linked to depression. Or is it high blood pressure? Who can tell these days.
