i cannot remember the last time i’ve been so sick. i think somehow i managed to contract (does one contract such a thing?) food poisoning. oh my god. this is by far one of the worst ailments i have ever dealt with. it’s just nasty and it makes you tired only you can’t sleep that well because of the chills and the nastiness shooting from every orifice of your body ever 20 minutes.
gross.
now i am exhausted and dehydrated. how fun is that? but, on the bright side of things, i’ve managed to drink a glass of water without hoarking it up all over the place. it’s the small victories, i guess.

get yourself some pedialyte, fruit flavored or grape, the other flavors are of the devil.
it will help with the dehydration and over all nastiness.
hope you feel better soon.

ohmigod. I have a friend who always refers to puking as “hoarking”. How bizarre that there are two of you.
Hope you feel better soon.
Hang in there, jodikins. This too shall pass.*

If nausea set in less than 6 hours after eating, it could very well be food poisoning. Otherwise, it’s either a nasty ass virus or a bacterial ailment which will require a trip to the doctor’s. Personally, I’m betting on gastroenteritis. Oh, and scew the Pedialyte. It’s expensive and watered down Gatorade tastes better and works just as well. Stick to clear liquids for a day or so and add in simple carbs (namely, crackers) if the fluid stays down.
If it makes you feel any better, Maddy came down with pink eye on Monday, so at least you didn’t get that! I swear I didn’t try to poison you.
