Voicemail: 678-368-4935.

We have gotten my late mother-in-law’s mail forwarded to our house so we could take care of bills and such. She got a lot of catalogs. Today I discuss the items for people who are much older than me in the firstSTREET: for Boomers and Beyond® catalog. Apparently, according to this company, many older people are extremely obsessed with making or buying stuff for their children and grandchildren and they are stereotypically full of technological ineptitude, requiring dumbed-down cellphones and computers in which all the storage exists online, managed by service personnel. But that catalog wasn’t meant for me, yet.

Music: “Becky the Office Party Drunk Girl” by Jeff MacDougall from Masters of Song Fu: Volume 1

“Atomic War” by Tripping Hazard from Wron: Suicide Goat

“River (Joni Mitchell cover)” by Michelle Hotaling from Christmas

All music came from MusicAlley by Mevio.

I’m here to tell you, it ain’t easy, folks. Not only does Clifford repeat himself until I am going mad, he wanders, gets lost, has no sense of time and place, no concept of appropriate behavior, and is unreliable. This is kind of a depressing show, I realized as I was editing this down. If you’re out for laughs, you may want to skip.

It should help him with the issues he’s having–hypertension, dementia, arthritis, and the fact that he fell off his bed and bruised his ribs because he keeps his mattress shoved down from the headboard on the box springs so he can store his dirty underwear and nasty handkerchiefs up near his head, and he forgot and sat down on the unsupported mattress and tumbled to the floor. He absolutely refuses to go to a doctor as he’s a Christian Scientist and I can’t find one for him anyway as he only has Medicaid.
