"Why's he in the freezer?"

"Because he's dead."

--Big Love

"I don't want to hurt you.  I just want to kill you"--ibid.


    In the morning Father drove me to the endoscopy clinic north of Keele & Sheppard for my endoscopy. (He had to cancel a medical appointment of his own, which wasn't as urgent.)


    I went through the procedure 14 years ago, and got to see inside my bowels. (It looked like a triangular prism, as in a Toblerone box, but flexible like a hose.) This time they gave me a sedative strong enough to knock me out through the whole procedure, and leave me groggy afterward.  When I got home I slept for almost three hours.


    Dinner was pork and rice.


    Saw the DVD of the first episode of the Niall Ferguson documentary series of The Ascent of Money.


    Then I got the DVD for the first episode of the latest season of Big Love.  I don't know why they changed that great opening credits sequence!
