I haven't eaten since Monday night at 9 p.m. when I had a bowl of Frosted Flakes. I dreamt last night that I cheated on my colonoscopy prep and they had to send me home and re-book it. I woke up in a sweat. Of all things, I "dream-cheated" on chicken nuggets. Really? I'm disappointed in myself for not aiming higher.
At 7 a.m. I counted the hours until the big event--9 more hours. This is my punishment for moving the appointment from January. They gave me an afternoon slot.
I drank the last dosage of the magnesium citrate which went down my esophagus like carburetor fluid. I washed that down with 24 oz of the yellow Gatorade (as directed). Then, I drank a bottle of Poland Springs water. Then, I got a headache.
I am a hypochondriac. That is a well-known fact. When I got the headache, I had a flashback to the woman who died of water intoxication (there is such a thing) in the "Hold your wee for a Wii" contest. I Googled the article about that event. Very sad. Now I'm worried I might be experiencing water intoxication.
9 more hours. I think I'll take a bath next and shave my legs even though the doctor is a Russian woman.
