The last thing I remember was the surgeon pinching skin above the eyelid crease and calling out a nano-number. Can’t remember the number though.

Propofol was my friend — just like the colonoscopy drug. Woke right up after. It’s a fast $urgery.

They had said something about sometimes using a little Versed before. I don’t know if they did that or not. . .

(I have always been suspicious of the root of that name for a drug. ‘Ver’ just like in ‘veracity’ or ‘verify’ or ‘verisimilitude’ or ‘veritably’ and the Spanish word ‘verdad’ = TRUTH! (Always wondered if Versed is truth serum or some such thing and I would tell them all kinds of stuff if they used that.)
