The fast means soft foods for a few days followed by liquids for 24
hours. That won't happen for a couple of weeks and no prior visit to a
doctor is required so I didn'tunderstand your reference. The
colonoscopy is the day before the wedding and usually leaves me with
pretty sore insides for a few days.

Well you didn't say that in your note eariler this week saying you had to go
back in. it was too short a post and I'm sure I'm not the only one who
thought you wre doing this, this week.



Tonight was most unpleasant. An out of town guest insisted on taking me
to her favorite restaurant in appreciation for staying at my place.
I ordered soup, the waiter admitted it had MSG. I ordered spareibs. The
waiter acknowledged all were made with barbecue sauce containing sugar
and MSG. I ordered asparagus. The waiter cautioned it was made with
some kind of cornstarch in the sauce. He brought the others sliced
potatoes, French Fried battered onions and lobsters. i was embarrased
to order a steak the smallest costing $37.50 since someone else was
picking up the tab. I pleaded flu (not an exaggeration) and fled home
early for two slices of Emmanthal cheese and the season premiere finale
of "Will and Grace."

Basically I find restaurants usually more of a trial than a pleasure
and am getting progressively more cranky these days or ****y or crabby
or downright miserable and snappish.
