    My favorite thing to do is fill out my health history online. Whenever a doctor says they're going to refer me to someone I get giddy because I know I get to fill out another form with the exact same info. Even when a doctor referred me to his brother, whose practice is in the same building, I got to do it again and I love it so much. I can't wait until I see that same doctor and get to fill out the same form again, it is SO MUCH FUN

    Drive west towards Fredericksburg and that puts you right in the middle of the Texas wine scene. Winery about every half mile.

    Just east of Johnson City is Pedernales Falls State Park. It is beautiful in the rugged Texas Hill Country kind of way.

    Ronnie's BBQ is good if your looking for bbq

    Hill country cupboard is good old fashioned home style cooking, especially good for breakfast

    Lots of good historical stuff around, all based on LBJ

    The state park is right next to the NP and is has live blacksmithing and farm animals, etc that is great for kids

    If you have kids in tow, the science mill is good

    Pecan street brewery on the square is worth some time if you're wanting some brews

    Mentioning fat boy burgers first makes that list completely irrelevant
    That place is not good, and I'm honestly surprised they are still in business

    It did mention Bryan's on 290 though and I forgot to mention that place
    It's good

    If you really want a good burger in the area, a short trip to Alamo Springs Cafe is worth it.
    Probably the best burgers I've had in a long time.

    Some of the funniest people and most obnoxious boomers I've seen were on wine tours in Fredericksburg. Just getting absolutely drunk on tastings with those bus tours that take you to the various vineyards. Some boomer got upset when the vineyard my wife and I were at didn't give you a complimentary glass. He tried to steal one and one of the employees ran him down. We were at another one and saw some girls acting like frat guys yelling DRINK IT with their little tasting amount. :laugh:

    Why at the doctors office do they read you your blood pressure numbers as if you have any fucking clue what they mean. They’ll deadpan say something like 110 over 70 and then just go back to typing into the computer.

    110/70 is totally normal

    your top # (systolic) should be between 90-120
    your bottom # (diastolic) should be between 60-80

    hope that helps

    It helps I just don’t get why they can’t provide one more line of context. Like today I must’ve stood up quickly (I was light headed walking back to exam room) so I had low blood pressure. The nurse goes 90 over 60 or some shit and stares at me looking for a response. Sorry I need to phone a friend because idk what your gaze is implying.
