It took a couple of months to get the CT scan appointment after what my doctor thought was an ocular migraine back in June.

But tonight I had my appointment down at Mount Sinai Hospital to check to see if there’s anything seriously wrong with my noggin.

Just about to get slid into position.

Look carefully through the donut there. See that vacuum hose? I wasn't aware of this, but what they don’t tell you about the CT scan protocol in Canadian hospitals is that part of the procedure right after the scan is to open a 3-inch hole in your cranium with an old can opener and then vaccuum out your bad thoughts.

And it really works. It doesn’t bother me now that the Leafs will never win the Stanley Cup ever again. I honestly couldn’t care less now.

But I've still reserved my spot on Yonge Street for the Cup parade next June, just in case.

I asked the wonderfully attractive CT scan technician to take the photos. She was totally into it and took a bunch of shots. She got a kick out of the touch-screen controls on the camera.

And me, the idiot, I forgot to take a picture of her.

Dohhh! Sorry.
