Being sick today

I just emerged from what could be the worst stomach sickness I have ever had. I remember once when I was a kid I was really sick for about two days and had to basically sit in the bathroom because, well, you can guess. I remember eating at Roy Rogers or something and then getting very sick, maybe not from the food since my family ate it too as I recall, but very sick. I remember once not making it to the bathroom in time and felt bad for my mother because she felt bad I didn't have a bucket in my bedroom, which was my fault since I told her I could make it to the bathroom in time. But as a kid, you deal with stomach sicknesses and bounce back pretty quick.

Starting at about 6 this morning, after a sleepless night, I was more sick then I could ever remember. No reason to get into details, but it was probably food poisoning and made me pray for a quick, painless death. My stomach is killing me, my head is killing me and I am weak since I have not had anything to eat in almost 24 hours. For those who know my eating habits and what I look like, not eating is a monumental feat.

Now I am eating ice and gingerly trying to come back into the fold.

Just thought I?d share.

<u>Update:</u> It came back. About 10 last night it came back in full force. There I was, lying in the floor of the bathroom, face pressed against the cold tile, panting, dripping in sweat. And I knew I had the entire night ahead of me. Ugh
