I took a mental health day yesterday in order to look after my physical health.I had my annual physical, preceeded by my semi-annual clambake with my cardiologist.
That's me over there, 4th from the left, just behind the cardiologist.
Only kidding.
The net-net of all that was a) it's time to schedule a cardio-stress-test, which will be the 1st one since my quad-bypass 3 years ago and b) my internist decided to up one med (allopurinol for my gout) and drop another one (lyrica for my neuropathy).
All in all it was a good day.
The best part was going to see "The Simpsons Movie" in the afternoon. I'd tried to go on Sunday but because the weather was so rotten everybody in Mercer County had the same idea so that when I got to the lobby I looked at the lines and blurted out "THIS IS SO NOT WORTH IT!" to which some woman replied, "WHAT'S NOT WORTH IT?" not realizing that I was merely making a rhetorical statement.
The movie was pretty good but I have to agree with most of the critics who said it was, basically, just a long version of the show. But it was definitely worth it to hear Marge scream out, "Will somebody just throw the goddamned bomb?"
Sometimes laughter is the best medicine.

Haven't seen The Simpsons movie yet, but we did see Ratatouille yesterday, which was wonderful.
We saw that up on Cape Cod during a "rain-day."
I'm looking forward to seeing the new "Bourne" movie opening this coming weekend.
p.s. I forgot to add that we, too, loved Ratatouille!
