I Just Threw Up In A Bucket A Lot

Here's how my day went: six hours of intermittent vomiting, a full day of by turns feverish freezing and boiling to death, little to no sleep, two cups of Jell-o, three crackers, one can of Coke, one can of ginger ale, a few bottles of water, a piece of toast, three teaspoons of an anti-nausea syrup, and now several hours of shitting out everything that I didn't hurl earlier. Good news: I ended up having Presidents' Day off; bad news: I would have rather have gone to work.

People really find it fun to induce this crap via booze? Bulimics have such body image issues they do this on purpose? Pregnant woman somehow resist the urge to kick the nuts of their baby daddy for granting them weeks or months of daily vomiting? The mind boggles.

Thank you, Jennifer. I'm pretty much all better now.

Tim: I really didn't start eating until late Monday, and it really wasn't as much as it sounded. Trust me, earlier in the day, I was throwing up water, and several times nothing but a few splashes of bile.
