The doctor I saw today said she never heard When I'm 64. The surgeon I saw Monday and I agreed to a February 26 date for the procedure. And greatly relieved to know there is no stay for rehab. I will be of reduced mobility for 6 weeks plus.
The doctor you saw today is way too young to be trustworthy!
As to the reduced mobility, think of it as a staycation.

Even with his car's starter out of commission from the same surgical procedure, Mr. Slate would still make Fred Flintstone come in for work. Fred just wouldn't be so athletic sliding down his brontosaurus at the 5 o'clock whistle.
And do we know anyone who really gets off at 5? Do I really want my great life's regret to wish I'd worked more hours?
My word, that's exactly it.
Yes it is a ritual to play a record properly. There were even "gentler" aftermarket record sleeves to replace the paper sleeves. Very annoying to have a record with a missing inner paper sleeve. IIRC some of the inner sleeves had artwork.
One bookmark I have points me to a jeweler who makes searrings of 45 rpm record inserts in sterling. At about $75, last I looked, not at the top of my list but still on my list.

There's another glass, should the need arise. Pâté, oil cured olives, feta, toast points, and call it a fine dinner. That's to counterbalance the fish and chips and stout at lunch. Macrobiotic in reverse.
It IS your Birthday Contessa.....Might I gently suggest something a little more....errrmm.....Birthdaylious?..Just poured a white zinfandel

I toast you with Merlot - may you have as many birthdays as your heart desires.
Did they tell you no wine during recovery?
A fine repast indeed!.....(ex the Zin)....

Odin just reminded me how all standard poodles enjoy oil cured olives, and feta, and especially enjoy pâté on toast points.
My surgeon was not aware I am able to play bass seated. Also assured her I'm able to tap my left foot. So now I'm putting another foot forward.
And of course - @Fat Freddy - there is dessert.
We are not uncivilized.

We are not uncivilized.I have a cheap cabernet here to toast you with. But I hope that doesn't affect the quality of the sentiment being sent!Just poured a white zinfandel
There is dinner being served up here by a drummer who has temporarily taken up lodging in my spare room. It would have to be a drummer, right? Fortunately this is a drummer who is a foodie, so that goes a long way toward making it all ok.A fine repast indeed!.....(ex the Zin)....
