All went well this morning. Got about 6 hours of sleep (with no gut spasms or, uh, leakage), showered, brushed teeth, married husband, began the 10 minute waddle up the hill. We were due to have 5-10cm of snow last night; I encountered slush and sleet.

Intake was seamless, all staff were excellent, Dr. Ramji apologized for the RotoRouter prep required and then they pumped in some Demerol and benzo. And then ......it was 2.5 hours later, I was in recovery and my bum didn't hurt. In short order I was brought muffins cheese and juice to break the fast and was allowed to dress. Dr. Ramji advised there were no polyps, no inflammation, though he took a couple of biopsies--but everything looked fine. So I'll see him for a follow-up in about a month.

I then waddled over to Robson Street, picked up some stuff at Body Shop, and then rubbed a Wendy's Single with Cheese over my nipples. *burp*

On the bus home sorta nodded off. So I'll be staying close to home until the drugs wholly wear off.

Thanks to all for their kind words yesterday. Very much appreciated. A lot.

"Married husband"? As in, engaged in conjugal bliss or jumped the broom?

We exchange rings every day...usually in the morning

Well that's pretty neat. Glad the oogy proceedure's over.

I was about to make a smartassed envy-driven comment but I don't want to harsh the mellow.

I'm glad your bungie is ok, at least at first looks.

Don't be bitter Betty.

And thanks...but the "prep" means I won't be back in the saddle (OK I won't be the saddle, shaddup) for a few more days.

I'm not bitter...not about that at least. Just smartassed. Which, as my mother used to say, is far better than being a dumbass.

What a pity that the prep doesn't prepare you for such. It could be a silver lining. But alas.

Why is the American Journal of Epidemiology making me winnow my manuscript down to 3,500 words? Do they want to publish it on a Post-It note?

positivist wankers hate words. everyone knows that

I should just give them my tables and tell them to be satisfied with that.

Empiricist? Fuck, yeah.
Positivist? Not so much.
Wanker? Again, fuck yeah.

This is me loving you.

What's that white stuff in your beard?
