Thanks for the sympathy Charlie.

Now sipping on a lovely cocktail of lemon-lime Gatorade and club soda ... yecch ..
Yecch, indeed. Can't you just go with straight club soda? I'd give you my recipe for faux San Pellegrino, but you wouldn't have the necessaries soon enough to do you any good.

Meanwhile, having some of that faux San Pellegrino.

Need to keep my blood sugar up - hence the Gatorade. It's ironic b/c I hate sugar, sugared drinks, etc. -- drink Gatorade Zero usually.

Oh well, planning on a lovely cup of clear broth for dinner.

No, no, you got the quote wrong. It was George Brett (KC Royals) who had missed a couple of games because of hemorrhoids when asked by the journalist how he was doing -- "It's all behind me now."

That's what the nurse told me after the procedure!

And, a bit of medical humor, I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy done today (top & bottom) - the nurse told me they referred to it as a "Double Dip" - I was not amused.

Perrier in my cup tonight ... no alcohol after anesthesia ...

They got you coming and going, huh?

For whatever reason my first colonoscopy wasn't "clean" so these days I do a two day fast to prepare. Ugh.


Just starting my last tea of the day.

I had a similar problem with my first - so I did a week with fiber free foods and a daily dose of Miralax, 3 days of soft food with magnesium citrate laxative, and clear liquids only on the day before the procedures. I was cleaned out but good.

I never want to see a bottle of lemon-lime Gatorade again!

Perrier tonight ... (really want some Guinness)

A mug of coffee, black and bitter. Never been sure why people assume black coffee does not have sugar.

Sorry about that. It can be an acquired taste. This one's probably not a traditional Gose, but more in line with a sour (as are most made by Urban Artifact). Think Sea Quench Ale from Dogfish Head, but not quite as much pucker.

Coke Zero Sugar at the moment.

The only gose I've tried was in a local Irish pub (Wild Irish Gose). Not bad but not sure if it was worth the price.

Otherwise, I'm having a Coke Zero with lunch.
