Day 775

I woke up at 7 this morning.  I stayed in bed surfing until about 8.  Then it was pet stuff and NO breakfast.  Today is starve yourself and then give yourself the shits day.  I ate a few pieces of hard candy (that's allowed) and then went out to finish the backstop.  I attached the two 2x6's that I bought yesterday.  I also redid some of the wires to make them tighter.

The hardest parts were getting the ladders out (garage and back shed) and putting the four 2x4 sheets up on top.  Ellen helped and she did really well.  Apparently she doesn't like ladders.  She was complaining when she was half way up the ladder.  We got them up with a minimum of trouble.  It was still work - I was soaked with sweat by the time we were done.

The whole thing took until 11 to finish.  I went back inside, did some surfing, anfd then had lunch (some hard candy).  Then we went to Best Buy to get a 4K version of the 5th Element.  We got a chance to see the TV we ordered and the blu-ray player.  The player should be here today, we're not sure when the TV will be here.

On the way back we stopped at HEB.  I got some more hard candy and some non-diet 7-up.

When we got back I did some surfing and then watched an old movie.  After that it was surfing and football.  I started taking laxatives at 4.  I'll be finished in 10 minutes.  So far there's only been one dribble, but I'm expecting a lot more.  The pills aren't supposed to take effect until after 10 tonight.  I expect I won't get much sleep.

That's all I'm going to write today.  I'm going to concentrate on shitting my guts out for the rest of the evening.

NOTE: I decided to add what happened last night.  I stayed up until midnight.  By that time the shitting had subsided.  I slept in bed with my clothes on until 3:15 when my asshole woke me up.  I spent the next hour and 15 minutes shitting.  I sat in the chair in between bouts.  At 4:30 I managed to go back to sleep until 7:15.  Then it was more shitting until 8 (at least at a reduced rate).
