For anyone wondering, it's only enlarged.

How Am I

 

How am I?

You ask,

how are you?

Well, let’s see:

Awaking this morning,

and awaking a good thing!

I awoke this morning

with buzzing in my head

then...

damn tri-focals

computer image

fuzzy in one eye.

How am I?

How are you?

you ask.

Well let’s see:

Awoke this morning

with buzzing in my head

then found computer image

fuzzy in one eye

and...

and that ain’t all,

damn prostate,

also had’a  pee

but

no,

wasn’t able to pee,

leastways, not much.

How am I?

How are you?

you ask.

Well, let’s see:

Ears buzzing

eyes fuzzy

gott’a pee.

getting old,

well, yeah

you see,

now ears not buzzing

and eyes less fuzzy,

but damn,

gotta go

you see

'cause

damn prostate,

still gott’a pee.

Chuckle!!! Aging is so much fun.....mostly because after a lifetime, we can finally laugh at ourselves! Loved this one, Regis!

Well Markie, I must say getting old isn't fun and if this is true, you best get your butt to the Doctor. I have to say though, you do have a way with words dear.

Your #1 Newfie Friend Hugs, XOXOXO, Rose

Mark,

What can I say? I hope you soon get to pee! Sounds like you have a few other problems too. it isn't nice to laugh at others woes, but this was so darn funny. Enjoyed reading it.

Oh Mark, I hope you are okay!
Maybe Vicky's right, you should take this seriously and make sure...
Or maybe, a ha! This may not be autobiographical at all!
I'm catching on, eh?
Take Care of yourself!!!

I hope you are seeing your physician(s) about this Mark.
Our bodies are always offering us signals to our health.
and not being able to use the porcelain throne is a
life threatening situation which could be the buzzing...

It's always good to awaken. Buzz head or fuzz head. Gotta go Gotta Go Gotta Go, Ho Ho Ho, Pink Giant. Perfect commercial. Somewhere between Dr Seuss and Golf Advertisements. Patrick
