This time at work. As I was leaving work I felt a breeze just below my belt. For the last hour at work I'd been walking around with my fly down!  Luckily no one noticed!
Good God, this growing old stuff really sucks!

Good God, this growing old stuff really sucks! | The real question is- how high were you wearing your pants? Don't feel bad- I have a pair of pants that the zipper magically unzips itself. I got off stage at our last show only to realize my zipper was down the whole show.  My bass was in front of it, but people had to have noticed while I was setting up/tearing down. It's not very metal to play with an open fly.

| | | | Had to blow my nose, so I walked into the bathroom to get some TP. Got it, blew my nose and noticed the roll was getting low. Took a mere three steps from the bathroom to the hall closet to get a new roll, opened the hall closet door and..........I had no idea what I went there for. Stood there for a minute feeling like a total idiot. Finally remembered about half an hour later.
Another time I cleaned out the closet in my room. Had a box filled with things from the closet to go into the basement. Carried the box thru the kitchen, realized I was thursty so I set the box down to get a drink of water. Finished the water and walked right past the box, got downstairs..........had no idea why I went down there. Walked back upstairs RIGHT PAST THE BOX.......
Yeah, some days it's like..."please, just shoot me now!" |

Getting past 60 is an accomplishment with so many I knew not around anymore. Why get the blues, I can always go to the supermarket and look at the young women( heck with 40 yr olds I mean the ones that still smile.......take care you all  |

| | | | I remember thinking Saturday that I needed to remember to get a 9v battery. That evening we ran to Target, I actually remembered to get the battery, but I still have no idea what I needed it for....
Have it sitting on my desk, so I have to stare at it until I remember what I need it for, but by that time, I'll probably lose the battery. |

| | | | We had to put a larger dry erase board on the fridge. The old one apparently shrunk. Couldn't be we needed more space to "remember" things...old people are the only people who need that kind of crap.
Did I mention I'm suffering from progressive CRS syndrome? It plays hell with my terminal tinkeritis. I take something apart and often can't remember how to put it back together without taking time to study the parts.

Of course, I usually figure it out before I'm out of the neighborhood and just swing back by the house.

and my five head is turning into a six head. sux.

Now, is the guitar in it's case under the bed or in the closet? Maybe on the stand in the other room....  |
