Post-Christmas blues

[Guinevere]

and greens, and any other color gatorade my body has rejected the last few days.

Once again, my beautiful little petri dishes did a number on me. Four hours after returning home, my body ejected everything it's eaten the last week -- or so it felt. I'm finally in a 12-hour span of mostly keeping down gator or ginger and a saltine or two every hour, but wow, does my diaphragm ache. Not to mention my head. The 101 fever doesn't help much either. Popsicles are on tomorrow's list to get.

I was supposed to fly to Chicago tomorrow morning, for a girls NYE with my BFF. No such luck.

Bah humbug and all that. I'm sick of being sick already.

[Crackpot]

If it's any consolation I have it shooting out the other end

[Joe Guy]

I'm sure that helped her out, Crackpot.

It certainly made my day.

[Crackpot]

I did it mostly for Jim's benefit

[Lord Jim]

I suspected as much CP, and let me tell you I really appreciate your sharing...

Pity you don't have any video to post....

[Crackpot]

Unfortunately without the smell video wouldn't do it justice

[Lord Jim]

Gee, that's a shame...

But thanks for providing that additional useful information...

[Crackpot]

That's what I'm here for

[Joe Guy]

Very informative, CP... in an anal sort of way. You and Guinevere pretty much have the gastrointestinal tract covered....

[MajGenl.Meade]

Something they'd prefer to a void...

Hope that both get better rapidly.

[oldr_n_wsr]

Please don't pass either ailment on.

[TPFKA@W]

Gastroenteritis is a good reason to avoid those little vectors aka kids. If I lived closer I would bring you homemade chicken soup. I hope the Swede is around to tend to you. Tell him to wash his hand a lot and use hand sanitizer or he will get it too.

[rubato]

Well that's one way to avoid the Christmas Plush.

Down 7 pounds since before Thanksgiving.

The Swede is skiing with his daughter. Luckily my posse has brought me the necessary supplies -- mostly more gatorade and saltines -- and no one is entering the house quite yet.

CP, hope you're better soon.

[oldr_n_wsr]

Looks like my daughter got some bug (flu?). In bed since sunday night. Achy, fever, cough, sniffles. I better not get it.
Feel better Guin.

One friend has been down with a virus for a week and I just got a call from our New Year's Eve dinner hostess who is just starting to come down with something and afraid of sharing it.

Maybe we'll make other plans.

That was a good idea for the hostess.

Nobody wants a nasty virus in their midst.

[Guinevere]

Down another 3 pounds -- below my lowest weight of the year. Not exactly how I wanted to get there though.

Managed some toast today, and a scrambled egg. Progress. . . .

No wild, or even semi-wild NYE for me. I'll be in bed by 8.

[Crackpot]

It's pretty much the same for me
