Maybe it's time for one of those tests trump took [View all]

Day before yesterday: I wake up after a deep sleep, look at the clock and it is 8:08. Wow, I think, I must have really been tired! I keep my morning handful of meds by the bed, so since it was later than the usual time, I took them right away. I saw daylight through the blinds. After a minute or two, I am thinking that something doesn't feel right. Damn straight. I figure out that it is evening, not morning, and I just took a handful of high blood pressure meds 9 hours too soon.

Today my kids came over for lunch and I was going to make mac & cheese in the instant pot for the first time. It only cooks 3 minutes, and when the timer went off, I released the steam, opened the lid, and VOILA! It was a pot of water. I forgot the pasta.

Things like this happen more frequently these days. Do you think it's time for a "test?" Not sure I can count backwards by 7 from 100, but I'm not sure I could do that 10 years ago.

Oh Age, you are indeed a shit.
