And So It Begins

Tomorrow is the big day, perhaps the strongest indication that I'm not a young pup anymore. You would think the gray hairs, the four children, or the mortgage would have caused it to sink in, but no.

I feel young. I still feel like I'm 14. I have the same interests as I did when I was 14: video games, music, sports and girls. Nowadays one girl exclusively, of course. Hello, Snow Princess!

But no, my venture into adulthood begins tomorrow with My First Colonscopy. I wonder if Hallmark has a card?

They don't, I just checked.

So, here I lie, 20 minutes after the first of a series of medications that will make me clean as a whistle. Everyone says the procedure is cake compared to the prep. We shall see.

Two Dulcolax and things are percolating, but not yet explosively urgent. I'm in my jammies to facilitate egress. The bath is loaded with wet wipes.

Let's get it on.
