oh jesus

i just got fuckin food poisoning from Alex Pizza. I think. In a serious serial barf-mode. Poor Zarf had to listen twice, and then I made him get me from stomachey things I remembered from last year's poisoning, back when I had a health care plan with a dial-a-nurse option. (That was from some cheapie Thai place, I can't even remember which now.)

Wish me luck.

When you can keep it down, water. And more water. Hydration.

Good luck.

Don't feel alone; that's happened to me before. Just drink lots of water or juice, and try not to think about it...

bummer!

It's amazing that I never hear of people getting food poisoning from eating dog food. Try that.

Also, nice to see you can blog and puke at the same time.

Get well soon, jmac.

If you really want (and while you're sick, you probably don't have the energy) I have a recipe for making actual ginger soda out of actual ginger. Not that it's complicated -- chop up ginger root and boil it in sugar water for a while. With cloves. Refrigerate, then add to seltzer and drink.

(2 inches of ginger root, diced. 400 grams sugar. Lime or lemon juice. A couple of cloves. Add 2 liters boiling water, stir, let cool. Add one drop of almond extract. When you use it, let the ginger bits sit at the bottom of the bucket; they're tough.)

[livejournal.com profile] meerkitty showed me how to make a wicked good ginger tea simply out of boiling a whole bunch of cut up ginger root, straining into a mug, and adding honey as you desire.

Food poisoning sucks. I had a horrible time at Pop!Tech last month, because I was sick still from a bad case of food poisoning.

You might just have bug. Just sayin.
