I have been away from here. My excuse is that I have been visiting family, friends and a conference, as well as seeing my not very well mother again. Then my laptop fell ill and was in intensive care for a long time (a bit like my mother!), and now it is functioning at half its former level (just like my mother!)
So, this post is all about today - I hope it will amuse you...
As I work part-time, it was meant to be a day off, so I had about 20 tasks to perform to keep me busy. First though, I suddenly remembered a doctor's appointment, and rushed out of the house at nine to get there. I have made a pledge not to drive when the distance is less than a mile or so, so I walked (in the lightly falling rain). By the time I got to the practice, I was soaking wet (despite the waterproofs), so I announced myself and waited with the other ten or so steaming wet souls, all coughing away. I swear that if you weren't ill before you arrived in a doctor's waiting room, you will be afterwards.
A friend once said, well there are certain advantages to getting old. I responded sourly that, believe me, there are none! Bits fall off you, you get short of breath and before you know where you are, you need a new hip to walk with, new glasses to see with, new aids to hear with and a blue pill to keep your erection going for a couple of hours. Some things are cheaper - like I now get free bus travel (but, in 30 years I have only once taken a public bus, so why do I need a free pass?), I can get 10% off screws in B&Q (but I hate DIY, so why do I want to queue up with all the other grey-hairs on a Wednesday for paint, wallpaper and light bulbs?), and I get 30% off rail travel (actually, I like this because I can read a book on a train, which beats looking at the car in front's licence plate while queued up for hours on the motorway).
Anyway, the doctor saw me 1/2 hour late. He was full of apologies and was clearly having a bad day, so I let him off (having spent the last half hour composing a stinging letter complaining about doctor's appointment times being a work of fiction).
I asked him if he had the right Kevin Jones up on the computer screen. There is a reason for this: the last time I went in, I saw a different doctor, who seemed rather surprised at seeing me looking so fit and healthy, and mumbled something about the wrong notes being up, and I was clearly not the person whose details she was looking at. The doctor today laughed, and explained that the other Kevin Jones was dead, and his post-mortem details had been attached to my entry in the database for a while! I assured him I was still alive, which he agreed with (using his medical knowledge), and we got on with the consultation. Apparently I have high cholesterol and high blood pressure, so I need to cut down on all the things I love, like cheese, chocolate and viagra! Not a good moment.
Oh well, semi-skimmed milk and lots of fruit for me from now on. I walked out into the now pouring rain and made my way home. Damn! I had left in such a rush my keys were inside, but my wife wasn't. She had also left her mobile phone inside, but I left a message on it just for luck. She had a day off, so wasn't at work, so I guessed she might have gone shopping. We don't leave a spare set of keys with a neighbour (I will change that situation today!), so I had to set off in the now tropical downpour to find a cafe, a paper and a warm corner to sit out the morning.
I now know what it feels like to be a down-and-out. I was soaked to the skin, but the cafe was fine and I read the local paper from cover to cover, did the sudoku, read the notes about my new diet, and at one o'clock I ordered a nice creamy curry for lunch (condemned man's last meal). As the curry arrived, my wife phoned to say she had picked up my message (I had left messages all over the county for her, so at last someone had told her I needed help). I finished the curry, she picked me up, gave me my keys and I went in for a hot bath, cup of cocoa, pipe and slippers (well, maybe the cocoa, pipe and slippers are an exaggeration!) Needless to say, the 20 tasks I had scheduled for today won't all get done.
To add insult to injury, when I phoned my mistress to tell her about all this, she thought it was hilarious. I pointed out I might just have a heart attack whilst we were making love, and she told me that if I did, she would load me into the back of her car and tip me over the nearest cliff... Oh well, I'll just have to come back to haunt her!
