Fitbit

     I finally got rid of all my old VCR tapes. They start to degrade after so many years. Imagine, saving all those old movies and TV shows. What was I thinking? Now I guess I've made myself space for some other junk.
     I need a new strap for my Fitbit. This one is falling apart, but I don't think a new strap will solve my problem. A piece of plastic has broken off one end so I won't be able to secure the new strap. Need to think out of the box on this one. Have to figure something out. The bottom line is, I hate the strap.

The Time Machine.

Tomorrow is my operation and it reminds me, until this prostate business, I haden't been in a hospital for fifty years. (Not counting visiting, of course). So tomorrow, I put on the dressing gown and my plastic booties. Then I walk to the operating room, which I find kind of weird. Then they give me a little stool, and I climb up on the operating table. Also weird. They have an oven in there where they warm up blankets, so they cover me with a warm blanket until everything is ready. (Not weird, cozy).

So everything is going great. We are having a nice conversation, then Zap! I'm in the future, a different room and a different time. A Time Machine, that's what it is. When you wake up, you don't know how far into the future you've come. Hopefully only a few hours. So, if anyone ever asks me, "Have you ever done time travel?" I can in all honesty say "yes."
