Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Posted January 11, 2006 Hi Friends, I don't know how many of you read the daily comics in your newspaper, but I do. One of my favorites is Beetle . In a recent cartoon, The commander is asking, " What's wrong with Lt. Fuzz? " Sarge says, " He's having a bad hair day, Sir. He gargled with aftershave,sprayed deodorant on his hair, put hair oil on his face, and swallowed his toothpaste. " Most of us with dementia can identify with Lt. Fuzz. We seem to have many bad hair days when nothing seems to go right. I recall years ago as a social worker that it was Monday, and everything seemed to be going wrong. I should have just stayed home, I thought to myself, and covered my head with the blanket and went back to bed. At lunch time, I went out on the downtown square for lunch. Wouldn't you know it. Flying over head was one of the many pigeons that lived downtown. One of them decided to use the top of my head as a target, and I felt this white stuff on the top of my head. Then I really knew I should have gone home and went back to bed. Lots of laughs. Hope your day is going well. Chip Gerber, Florida Quote
