The Flu

Started this week at my house. First one kid vomitting than another and another. Today was my turn. Although I never puked I felt like shit all fooking day. I did have two bouts of the "scoots" but managed never to barf. I probably should have. Work must hate me because today was the last day I had because vacation starts tomorrow. So I did what any reasonable person would do, shut the ringer off and slepted most of the day. Had to drag my ass out of bed just to deposit my check and pay a bill.

Sunday my oldest son and I are going to BSA camp for 7 days. So I had to drag my ass and his to Wal Mart for last minute provisions--mainly a new cooler for my soda and sparkling H2O plus batteries for my cd player and mosquito repellant. No reason to live primative. The cashier said I looked like I had a long day. If she only knew.

So now it's 16 hours later and I finally ate something. I'll keep a bucket by my bed.

Uurrghhhs... Don't pass that on me... Get well.

Get well soon, Twister! I had strawberry poisoning 2 weeks ago. Felt bloody awful ...

Strawberry poisoning? How to get that?

Just wash them properly and you'll be fine. I'm probably alergic to them. That's okay cause I don't really like them anyway. :)

I couldn't live without strawberries...

Allergic to strawberries??? That sucks. My wife is and some of my children are. Some of my kids have had allergic reactions to nuts. So... buying ice cream for my dwelling sucks, no strawberry, no nuts. I usually get two packages anyway.

Feeling better. Made it through the night without puking. Headache receding.

Sucks indeed. Also alergic to Sun. Life's a bitch, eh?

I got my first and only case of carsickness yesterday (at least as far as I can remember, though I could have been nauseous at other times and not recall). My little brother was driving, and I was leaned over adjusting the radio stations, and for some reason when I finally looked up after jolting around a bit (usual car motions) I felt light-headed. It seemed fine until we started to come home a few hours later. Plus, the fact that my Sprite was very warm by the time we left probably didn't help anything. Anyway, I felt better after getting some food in me (and driving the car myself :D ).

Twist, you got my sympathies. Here's hoping you and yours recover soon

If you are, you can it the white ones. I just read about that in a newspaper this morning. Dunno if it's the same strawberrys that's white at first and then turns red, or if it's a new sort of strawberry.
