Merry F. Christmas
And a Happy F. New Year.
Sometimes I get a variety of thoughts that don't connect so this will be a potpourri type of Blog.
a.) Yesterday I received a letter from the Social Security department. I figured it was a determination on my claim. I figured wrong. They want me to see a psychiatrist of their choosing before making a decision. Man, did they pick the right time to see me. I have a whole lot of crap going on plus the holidays are less than two weeks away. Major stress. Bring it on !!
b.) During a discussion about music, I mentioned I couldn't ever get into The Allman Brother's song "Whipping Post." It's just too long for me. You think if I mention to the shrink that I can't deal with anything over 10 minutes, it will help my case?
c.) Talking about doctors, I have a meeting with my Pulmonologist this afternoon. You may remember that he's the guy who told me I probably have lung cancer five minutes after meeting me. Two weeks later, he said, naaaa, nevermind. We're going over all the test results today. If you see on the news tonight a story about a doctor being attacked, you'll be able to say " I knew that guy. He didn't seem the type to do something like that. Shocking!"
d.) Next Friday, I'm having a brain scan. Then comes a meeting with my neurologist. I can see it now. " Mr. Moore, we looked at your brain. We found nothing."
e.) I was waiting a bus this morning. The Bus tracker app on my phone said 10 minutes, so I walked rather than wait. On my half mile walk there were five buses going in the opposite direction. A WTF moment.
f.) Finally...talking about WTF moments, Keith Richards, of the Rolling Stones, turns 70 next week. He looks like he should be in a zombie movie. He's going outlive most of my readers. How did this happen? An example of better living through chemistry.
