I had my yearly Medicare wellness check up today.

[edhopper]

They tested my mental fitness.
I knew the date and the day of the week. I could spell WORLD backwards, l drew a complicated image of two interlocking pentagram.
I was very fit mentally and did all the task without a hitch.
I am very fit, very. Most people on Medicare aren't as fit as me.

1. Good for you!

I'm constantly astonished and saddened to see how people my age (75) and often much younger, have all sorts of health issues and limitations.

2. Fantastic, You are certified Stable genius.

When they did my test the nurse told me a story and didn't tell me it was a test that I was supposed to remember. I passed anyway, but not stable genius level.

3. But did you remember Man woman camera Camel ...?

I'm scared some day they're going to say, "Draw a clock," and I'll draw all the numbers in the wrong place....

4. Just draw the clock in a black hole and argue about it later.

5. Dali drew a crazy clock....

I can just say it's Dali-esque.

6. I told my doc today my memory was crap

he said when I wanted to i could have a 4 hr exhaustive neurological test, not ready for that yet but soon.

I have taken tests online and passed but my short term memory getting worse, i think of something then few seconds later it is gone.

13. Words escape me

All the time.

17. But I bet you can remember details

from 40 years ago. That's how I am.

20. I was watching 2001 the other day

and remembered HAL detected a failure in the 35B communications module. Now ask me what I had for breakfast Monday.

14. Did they check hearing, vision and ask about regular bowel movements?

[edhopper]

15. Sort of

More about pissing.

[Mr.Bill]

16. They asked me to draw a clock

that says 11:10. I asked them if I got extra points if I did the clock in roman numerals.

I would bet large money that Biden could do that and Trump couldn't.

18. I was scheduled for the same check up

I wrote down the date and time on three calendars.

Forgot to check my calendars and missed the appointment.

Oh, well, try again next year.

19. They gave me three words at start of test and I had to remember and repeat them at the end
