When I was a kid in high school, I never tried drugs and I still haven't for the record. But, I knew of people who always thought that there was nothing like a good acid trip. While there bodies were growing quite accustomed to taking this drug called acid, my body was beginning to try to get rid of acid in the form of acid reflux... Yummy.
It is a painful experience and nothing to get high on. As the years have gone by, I have taken the Nexium and Prevacid, I have gone in for an upper GI to find that I have a small but insignificant hernia that should not make much difference. A few years later, no change... especially in my diet, stress level, and my avoidance of regular medications, which seems to exacerbate things.... and I go back to the doctor. The doctor refers me to the specialist because upper GI's are outdated and they need to see what is going on down there and so he decides to refer me to the cameraman (Gastrointerologist) who is going to make a movie.
I hope for goodness sake that the movie he makes in my stomach resembles more of my work life than my home. At work, things stay fairly clean and busy but while at home, I let it all hang out. If what he finds in my stomach is like work, he will find lean chicken socializing with the low fat yogurt after a long day of teaching baby carrots about growing up. But, if the movie is like my house, the pizza is likely to be laying in bed making out with the Strawberry shortcake, both of which will be lying around without their topping of course. I hope that what is in my stomach is more like work than home. But, it is probably not the case seeing that what we eat really tells a lot about who we are. Wait, I feel a cliche' coming on.
But, the good news is.... As I looked at my price quote for the endoscopy, they also had a quote next to it for a colonoscopy just in case I had some anal issues (no comments from my wife accepted here). I was much relieved, after asking, that they use two different cameras. So, for the efficient cameraman (specialist) with a good ASSistant (pun obviously intended), we see that it could be possible to make two movies at once.
Though, I can figure what kind of movie would come from my gut,
I would hate to see the kind of movie that would come from my butt.
