Blerghity blergh blergh blergh!

oh man. Could someone just remove my entire digestive tract, right now? I'd greatly appreciate it!

We were doing "Summer Sweep" in the office yesterday, also known as "Get rid of all the free shit you've accumulated but are never going to take home" day. Part of having this event involved the cafeteria giving out free lunches. Apparently, the hamburger I had did NOT agree with me in any way, shape, or form. I was okay for a few hours after eating, then I noticed I was still tasting the burger on my breath about four hours later. Didn't think anything of it, came home, had some dinner (lasagna).

Then my stomach sprang into action.

It had apparently been waiting for me to add something that actually cost me money to it before turning into a writhing, cramping mass of WTF on me. I had some water and then went and laid down. By around 9:00, I was in severe pain, and satyr_mi opted to go to the store to get me some Pepto as we were all out. He came home with it, I was barely lucid. I did manage to think of going into the bathroom before taking it. See, Pepto and I have this weird relationship. It'll be all nice and normal to me if I just have a bit of indigestion. Anything beyond that?

I had already had massive diahrrea all night. As in, I'd sit down, and the contents of the Mississippi would eject themselves from my bowels. Apparently, taking Pepto caused my stomach to pull a Linda Blair...

I projectile vomited the entire contents of my stomach. Mostly into the toilet, although some of it wound up on the wall, the shower curtain, and the floor. My first thought was "OMG THERE'S BLOOD IN IT!" and then I remembered that dinner had been lasagna, so it was really just tomato sauce. Three power-sprays of chunky goodness to the toilet later and I was done. Spent 20 minutes or so making the bathroom not look like a crime scene.

After all that, I tried to sleep. I took some more pepto, drank lots of water, had half a slice of bread, and proceeded to sleep fitfully all night, getting up every two hours or so to go to the bathroom. I had a slice of bread when I got up this morning and I've had a ton of water. And some Tums. I'm just freaking exhausted because I have had virtually no sleep.

Well, enough of that. I'm off to see how long I can sit in front of a computer before I pass out this morning.

Ah, the wonders of Cafe P. I opted not to go for the free lunch because what they usually have when they do that is hamburger patties that have been sitting in lukewarm water all afternoon. They scare me down there (expecially with the creepy "Hello, sir, how are you today?" lady).

Anyway: "Get rid of all the free shit you've accumulated but are never going to take home" day == classic.

dohhhhh Bad jdotmi!!!

BAD!

I'd wish harm to you, but I suspect the cafeteria has already done that to ya. Feel better soon, monkey. I missed my druid.

Yeah. This was definitely a case of red-light-district food. And I was one of the first people to go through and it was still like that. I hate hate hate the lunches that the dining service provides. ~_~

Awwwww... *long distance hugs*
I hope you feel better soon.

Please tell me you stayed home today.

I don't work today, so I am most assuredly at home. Depending on how I feel tonight, I may even call in to Booth.

There must be someting going around the office, b/c I'm home sick with the very same symptoms, and I just found out Carrie is too. And Cat was out on Monday with some violent illness.

*whimpers*

Well, unless it's daily food poisoning it's not what I had. I've been fine all week, as has everyone else in my department. Last night, though. Bleh. I had another slice of bread just now, but I'm still not hungry. Had bread, tylenol, pepto, and am now having a soda.

Carrie and I were both fine all week, too, (this hit me about 5 a.m. this morning) and we haven't eaten the same foods. I figured food poisoning too when it was just me who I knew was sick.

sounds like food poisoning, especially if other people in your workplace are sick too that ate the free lunch. Beware free lunch!

Well, it sounds like it could be food posioning, though food posiong usually has some other stuff accompanied with the vomiting (which I won't go into here, I am sure you can guess). That happend to me when I ate some bad food on an 8th grade trip, and I ended up holding up the entire trip on the monring we left (I was that sick). Well, I hope you feel better soon. Just try to eat really light and drink a lot of water (and maybe milk, since it natuarally can help calm your stomach down). And if you don't feel better in a few days, I would suggest going to see a doctor. Feel better soon hun!
