I don’t know if it looks screwy or not. I had a pretty abysmal streak here at the end.

uh, yeh, congrats mensa. who the heck invited you to this durn party, anyways?

oslo, clear liquids.

i remember getting ready for my first colonoscopy many years ago. the doc said only clear liquids for 24 hours before the procedure. no food or stuff.

i just loaded up on bud light and chardonay (clear, right). i was so fucking hungover the next day that getting the sedatives to have something jammed up your ass was like heaven.

Talk about TMI.

Today I found out that feeling 100% better than totally crappy does not equal feeling 100% of anything. Thank God-og-whatever it seems that I can now eat solid foods again.
