Oh for the good old days..........

The joys of being 50 (or 51) continue. Today I had a colonoscopy. Good times. Everything is fine, it was just a check-up thing, but times like these really make me miss the good old days.

The days when I ate nothing but junk food, drank like a fish, smoked a pack and 1/2 a day, and never gave a thought about going to the doctor. And excluding the hangovers, I felt just fine.

Now I go to the doctor regularly, watch my food choices, no longer drink or smoke, force myself to exercise, and usually have some kind of ache or pain everyday. Pretty much sucks, don't you think?

God, yes. I used to live on diet soda and cheetos.

And aren't those medical tests just so fun?

hmm, maybe you should take some of that stuff up again.
