I went in today to get the results of the MMPI. When I wrote earlier on my taking it, I alluded that I have some problems in the sanity department. With this test, I have had three in a row thrown out because they couldn't get a good read on me. I failed the test by truthfully answering over 560+ questions. This combined with the interview means that I am not a good candidate for the stomach bypass surgery. I was also told that my symptoms that I have now could become much worse after the surgery. It was this reason that made the most sense to me. So, it is now time for Plan B. I need to implement mindfullness in my eating habits. Mindfullness as practiced is part of DBT. I know that most of the battle of the waist centers mainly in my mind. I go to war with my self on daily basis.
Tonight on Turner Classic Movies, they are showing The Marx Brothers' A Night at the Opera. Here is a classic scene from that movie. I needed that laugh. I have heard say that laughter is a good medicine. This reminds of The Firesign Theatre's classic story, "Nick Danger (part one) (part two) (part three)." When I was in high school, this was a big hit with many people in my class.

Performances from KPFA's Dead to the World
This was a thank-you gift for a contribution that I made during the KPFA's Grateful Dead marathon. I receieved it in the mail today, and it was just the thing I needed to pick up my spirits after the news I had gotten earlier.
