All those injuries you had in the past that you thought you'd recovered from, but from middle age onwards come back and remind you you are fucked.
Hip, wrist, neck, knee and toe injuries all coming home to roost. I woke up last week with a hurting coccyx...how the feck can you injure you coccyx while asleep!? I honestly thought I'd been probed by aliens in the night or had been sleep falling down the stairs, while going for a middle of the night piss (another side effect of being old, fuck you prostate!).... but no, I'm so fragile I can injure myself in a motionless unconscious state. No Doc I don't have dementia, its not that I forgot how I got injured, I don't how the injury happened despite being there all along, and no, there was no alcohol involved....on this occasion.
And I'm still 20 years short of the free bus pass, fuuuuuck. I'd shuttle myself off to Dignitas if the staircase to the plane did'nt seem such an insurmountable mountain. Pass me another cardigan, harumph.
