'twas the day before Thanksgiving...

"I'm with Dad at the butt scoping place"

I texted the above to Meego and Wolfgang this morning.  They were still in bed when Magnum and I left for Magnum's welcome-to-your-50s! procedure.  Boy, I am not looking forward to that.

Actually, he seems none the worse for wear.  From my vantage point, as designated driver,  I think the worst part for me will be that 24-hours of no solid food.  What?  That's Bar-BAR-ic!  Call me when you figure out another way!

But Magnum was good with it.  I would've been/will be a grump and shun social interaction.

Afterwards, the good doctor said he'd removed one polyp about 6 feet "up", and congratulated Magnum for gettin' 'er done.  Then he gave us pretty pictures he took along the way to "put on facebook or share at the Thanksgiving table".

Nope.

Then I go read over at ShadowRun's.  She was doing the same designated driver thing!  The same I-can't-go-that-long-without-eating thing!

It's always fun, these little coincidences with blogfriends.  Cold weather, bicycle mishaps, pet stories, colonoscopies...

It's not the "no solid food" part that gets ya.
It's the liquid stuff you have to drink in lieu of food; it's the gift that keeps on giving.

They gave you pictures? Seriously?

Hopefully by the time I'm 50, there WILL be a better way. Although drinking something that works in 1/2 the time is a scary thought.
Funny coincidence for sure! Even funnier - this was going to be the title of a post I have in the making. Hope you won't mind if I use it anyway.

Glad you noticed that SR was doing the same as you - I felt like I had stepped into the Twighlight Zone when I read this post!

Then it's a good thing I won't feel like doing much socializing anyway.

Wanna see?

I'll probably have to fake my age to avoid the barbarism. You've still got a fighting chance! Title swap all you like.

I felt the same way over there!

Excuse me while I pass out.

Hmmm.... coulda sworn I just left a comment here.... something about hoping they improve the process within the next few years, before it's my turn!

Glad that Magnum endured the whole thing pretty well.

LOL

Do I dare go over to Shadow Run's. I'm okay, but the longer I stay here and then go there, I might begin to feel like LL. You'd think that I have no experience with this!

Glad they got that pesky little polyp from the husband.

He said he had weird dreams. Pffft, better than being awake!

It was so weird to go read at SR's and feel the deja vu all over again! But yeah, I've had enough. I think I should get a waiver for all this exposure.
