Pouring my a** out…

Oh, man, that title is funny. I have to give credit to my brother Henry for that one. Here is my little story, which I must admit falls perhaps into the ‘too much information’ category, but this blog is about my life, after all…

I am at that age where the doctors strongly advise you to get a colonoscopy. So, many months ago, I set one up for today.

But here is the funny part. I didn’t realize that I was setting it up for the day after Father’s Day. My mom and Sid came down from the Bay Area, partly because my brother Henry had a kid graduating from high school and another kid graduating into high school. So we had a party at Henry’s house on Saturday, and then a big barbecue at our house yesterday. My wife made ribs and hot dogs and there was a lot of really good food. A lot of family from both sides were there, almost 30 or more people. And it was an awesome Father’s Day… except for one thing…

The day before they shove a camera up into your insides, you can’t eat anything. Well, clear broth or Jello with no fruit, and a whole lot of liquids. And then at three o’clock I had to start drinking this medicine that cleans out your insides. So I got to spend most of my big day sitting on the toilet. Now you see why my brother’s little joke for a blog title is so damn funny. It’s funny now. It wasn’t so funny yesterday.

Everything is fine down there… or up there… just so you know.

And, I got a little camera for Father’s Day, so now I should be able to post better pictures than the ones I have been taking with my phone. Now, I am going to eat me some leftovers. Catch you on the flip-side, and bottoms up!

    I’m certain there’s a Somee card for this occasion but I’m too lazy to search for it so: Glad your poop-shoot looks good! 🙂

    You should have had the doctor use the new camera. After that adventure the camera won’t dare to take a blurry picture.

    Congrats on the camera gift. Too bad you didn’t have it in time to add up close and personal photos of the whole event.

  4. A day without BBQ is like a day without sunshine, especially when your dealing with where the sun don’t shine. Sorry you couldn’t partake of the shindig, but glad things are . 🙂

    I haven’t heard the expression “Catch you on the flip side” in forever.
    Pleased to know you passed the test!

  6. Ok, so let me make sure I understand…

    Your mommy came to hold your hand while you had a camera shoved up your arse (as Dotty would say)…..

    Now, I just hope it wasn’t the camera you got the day prior.

    😉

    (just kidding, just had to mess with ya!)

    Oh, I gave Mollie a shout out on my Sunday Funnies yesterday too! LOL

    Hysterical. I get one every six months because at the age of 35, they found something. It’s such a smart thing to do. Congrats. And it’s great fodder for a blog, clearly.

  9. That is rather funny. Welcome to the colonoscopy club! Sometimes things are better viewed from the inside out 🙂
