Well, it’s official. I’m healthyish! I turned 40 the other month (I’m not telling which month! I don’t need the whole world to know how old I am!!) and from what I can tell from the late night ads, when you turn 40 you’re supposed to have your shit checked (literally). So I made an appointment to see a reputable doctor (i.e. no Mexicans!). He seemed Jewish enough so off I went...
