You are generally unconscious for the actual colonscopy so it's not a big deal. The prep is, however, Not Fun. But WORTH DOING IF THERE IS ANY REASON TO SUGGEST YOU NEED ONE!!!!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I skipped over 3000 posts. I'm sorry. I'm sure someone said something important/poignant/hysterically funny and I missed it, but there's no way I can catch up on 3000 posts.
I've seen those commercials with the volcano! Whatever they are.

Trudy, are you having the same foot surgery I had, i.e., bones broken and realigned to make the feet foot-shaped?

Speaking of two things discussed in the last couple days here -- Westminster and high school classmates -- one of my classmates is showing her great dane at Westminster today, evidently.

Man, it'll be nice to have our espresso machine fixed and back. Drip coffee's okay but I need the serious caffeine crack.

Trudy, what do they do if there's no laxative phase to the colonoscopy? Because the reason I've hesitated to have one is that I probably am not going to be able to swallow the foul-tasting stuff they give you to drink in large quantities. I'm a supertaster with a very strong gag reflex, making that a very likely literal inability to swallow much of it.

BTW, yesterday I discovered that changing the litterboxes is much more pleasant if you put Vicks Vaporub under your nostrils first.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh. I just breath out of my mouth.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Shoe-shopping dilemma! I need new boots -- knee-high, black, can wear to walk a mile where there might be some ice. I think I want these: [link] BUT I have a $10 or $15 certificate for DSW, so I feel like I should check there first. But is there really going to be a better deal than those Clarks? And they say they only have one pair left in my size.
