Lisa Hendey’s recent plurk about “old lady syndrome” and a sore knee after exercising had me laughing. Forget the aches and pains — I’ve lived with those for a while. I mean, it takes my body about 5 minutes to warm up after I get out of bed. The effort alone of trying to sit up is an ordeal in itself. To watch me stumble across the bedroom floor as I attempt to straighten up is like looking at one of those posters of evolution. Still, it beats what’s going on in my brain, which evidently is so overcharged and overfull that anything triggers a short circuit.
