So my muggy mood turned into the night from hell. I think I got salmonella or food poisoning. My back had been bothering me all day and then my stomach started acting up. I came home, took a nap, and woke up to a high fever and projectile vomit. I often tease people “I got demons all in me.” Well last night, I think it was true.
Having had a horrible case of salmonella poisoning quite a few years ago, I think it left me some antibodies. Instead of getting full blown sick w/all the fatigue and vomiting for days (sometimes weeks) on end, I get sick, throw it all up, and then improve rapidly. I’m just guessing here but I’m grateful. One thing is for sure, I don’t wanna go thru another night like last night.
Add to that, I have shittiest lumpiest mattress known to man. I had to get up and come sleep on the couch. I’ve been putting off buying a new mattress. Not anymore! Once I’m a tad more recovered (yeah I know it’s not good grammar), I’m getting my ass over to the mattress store, TODAY! Actually, Kentucky Tim is bringing me some soup. He needs to get some errands done too. Maybe that’ll motivate me to get off my ass.
Wish me luck.
Hope you feel better soon! Take care!
I hope you feel better soon, Moby! When I read your post, I thought of the Cartoon Cartoon episode where a boy and his monkey wreck havoc in a lab with terrible diseases. He ends up breaking a jar and contracting “SalmonEllaFitzgerald”.
Appealing visuals Moby. You all sick, green, bent over a toilet. Wait..bent over…OK now that visual is one that works. Hope you’re feeling better soon.

Here’s to a speedy recovery.
Projectile Vomit! Always such a nice visual. I think I am going to be sick now! Blaaaaaaah!
Gotta love Steve’s comment!
Hope your feeling better tomorrow!
Sorry to hear you’ve taken ill. The only consolation is the inevidible 5 pounds you’ll lose. While it might not be fun at least there isn’t 3 weeks of recovery as in liposuction.
Get yourself a pillow top matress and then buy a feather bed for the top. It’s like sleeping on a cloud!
Hope you feel better soon.
Oh yaH!
Pookie has the right idea. I have a a feather down bed. UP there in SF, add a down comforter during the winter and cool months, it is truly heaven!
Hope you’re feeling better!
Good luck on finding a new mattress… and even better luck on chrisaning it! 😉
