i, idiot: after three years of procrastinating i finally made an appointment to get a colonoscopy. i did it all by myself. without my wife’s help. i’m serious. anyway, the day before the procedure i was on an all liquid diet & was about to take the bowel prep medicine.

“i sure did,” i said. “all by myself.” we got in the car & she took me to get some ice cream. five years later i would be running from a terminator sent from dr. flemjeans’ future grandson who was trying to prevent me from choosing another doctor to perform my second colonoscopy
