Old Age Day by Day September 6, 2012

I got my eye doctor's form into the DMV this morning.  So now all I have to do is take the driving test later in the month and I'm fine.  I can drive until then.  Big relief.  I actually like the staff at the DMV.  I know, that makes me suspect for for dementia, but really, despite waiting many hours, or maybe because of it, I appreciate how good natured, professional, and organized they are.  There are just large, and I mean large, numbers of people they have to deal with.  So, though I've spent a total of five hours there already, I can't complain.  The office seems to be well run. 

I watched the speeches at the Democratic Convention last night on TV.  I said I wouldn't but succumbed.  Elizabeth Warren had me at corporations are not people.  Clinton, the ole snake charmer himself, was brilliant, and made some issues crystal clear for me.  I actually felt I understood better after listening to him.  So it was a positive experience for me.  Surprise, surprise. 

Now I'm off to fritter away the rest of my day eating lunch with a friend and doing my once-a-month therapy.  Me time.  I actually, embarassingly enough, get tons of me time.  I'm a lucky person.
