Freeloading Phill and ...

... The Bemusing Blood-pressure

So I had an appointment this morning to further the cause of knee repair and whilst I was there the doctor decided that, given the four year gap between my medicals, it was best to have a go at my blood pressure.

The result was some strange sounding fraction that was actually quite good - and also almost identical to the one from my previous test of the aforementioned four years ago.

I find it very hard to believe that the past four years of extreme libraryland stress have had no effect on my blood pressure so I'm thinking of suing for malpractice.

I mean really, cast your eyes over this list of stress triggers I have had to deal with and make your own mind up:

Sphygmomanometer! What a cheapskate post! You just cut and pasted (pusted?) everyone's names from your Amateur Catalogue.

PS. Hope my literary criticism doesn't affect your blood pressure.

What?! Surely I help lower your blood pressure by providing a relaxing game environment? Plus I always cook healthy dinners.

I am abashed.

Had you thought that perhaps instead of suffering high blood pressure yourself, you cause other's pressure to rise?? Very bemusing.
