Miss Pukes It All
I'm down for the count. I have no idea why, and I kind of can't talk about it, since it will send me racing to my new sleeping spot next the the freezing toilet. Well, "lying there feeling comatose, but not actually sleeping" spot.
Yesterday at work I felt a little warm. I had an hour before a meeting so I laid on my couch and rested. Then my stomach rumbled, I thought I was hungry. I decided to ignore it. I went to a meeting at 5 where they served fruit and veggies and little sandwiches. I had a small plate and then my stomach really got pissed.
I left at 8 and drove home. I barely made it, as I raced up the stairs and lost my lunch. It was horrendous. All night long, and I couldn't even have water. I was blackingout and sweating. ( and crying since puking scares the daylights out of me). Slept maybe 40 minutes.
So I am camped out in bed, trying to not move my stomach. J went to the stoore and bought me popsicles which 3 of which have stayed down and now I just want to sleep.
Of course, my stupid brother-in-law-to-be comes home and is whistling, stomping up stairs, banging pots around, cooking chorizo, (of all the smelly and disgusting things!) and just generally bugging me. THe little dog next door has yapped for two hours straight, he is clearly stuck in the bedroom next to where I am!
Can popcorn that has a few overdone pops in it give you food poisoning? I don't really care what caused it, I am just begging my cramped up stomach for mercy. I feel loads better already, so I will live. I just need a big fat nap and a dozen more popsicles. You know how they ask you what makes you the most sick thinking about whenyou are sick, well for me it's burned popcorn that I attempted to eat around!
By the way, being like this reminds me of how sick Lu was once, and it has inspired me to keep drinking water, no matter what. And TallandLovely, I am really sorry for the "snapping on of the rubber gloves" thing in New Orleans. I just didn't get it!

Oh, you poor thing. I would be much more willing to bet that some sort of flu-like virus is the true culprit, rather than the popcorn... Stuff is just goin around *everywhere*. Hang in there, and keep drinking that water! Gatorade-type stuff is good too, to keep you hydrated... I hope you're better real quick!

Yep, I now agree. Crushing headache and body aches everywhere, and a fever that comes and goes.... I think flu too.
Much Much better today though. Thanks!
