These days, he leaves the apartment once a month. His reflections on the doctor's waiting room today,
"It's a lot easier to turn-it-on, when you work, and have to do it every day.
When it's just once-in-a-while, it's much harder.
It's hard to pretend, and have a gracious face in public, and pretend that everything is ok.
That's why I want to move to France.
At least in France I can just be old and crochety.
When French people are in a bad mood, they don't pretend that everything is good.
Here, you get punished for it. "
