Stroke aside, movie ticket taker

I suffered a stroke on Veterans Day in 2010.

I am incredibly lucky. Since Lori recognized what was going on, called 911 immediately and the EMTs got me to the hospital in less than a half hour. 

Consequently, I ended up with no physical problems and the only other problem was that I sometimes cannot think of simple words like "manage" "URL" and "obsequious." 

So, the next year, at age 65, I got a job as a ticket-taker at the Cobb 12 Theaters at Countryside Mall in Clearwater, Florida. 

I loved working for them. Since Lori was a nanny for wealthy folks and needed the car, I took a bus to and from work.
