Stay away from me (and I can't eat anyway! This is pure evil. Worried about dehydration so called Dr. Raff. Supposedly booked up for the day but the lady took my symptoms and the doc is supposed to call me with advice or another doc to see nearby. -
^oh, I wouldn't do anything other than ring the doorbell, leave stuff on the stoop and RUN (well, as much as I can actually run these days). I'm going to send you an email now re: Dr. Raff

If it sounds like what I have been dealing with

let me know and I'll tell you what my doctor said. Left to my own devices I would have done the wrong thing and according him be in the ER right now. -
OQ, i thought of that right away...but sadly, this is not the first time for this particular sickness, which is on the order of chronic but not catching.
on the other hand, while mine is painful and recurrent, yours sounded much messier.
what did the doc tell you to do, btw? -
Rave: having done all of my shopping (groceries and wine) yesterday and putting my car right in front of my house so I don't have to leave the house for days and days if this weather keeps up
Rant: Bobby Flay on the food channel. Totally douchey. -
Rave: at broth and rice last night with no aftermath! Rehydration here I come!
Rave: [the good side of dehydration deleted to prevent oversharing]
Rant: I keep trying to eat things I'm craving but as soon as they enter my mouth my body says "take it away" "danger".
My heart wants pizza but my body wants more pedialyte and applesauce. -
yay for broth and rice! i like grits for recuperation, too.

Rave: An extremely happy client just left my apartment with a stack of business cards
Rant: I feel like there is no way I'm getting out of school tomorrow... -

Rant: I know, right? Slushpocalypse. I didn't even get a snow day out of the last storm. Need serious accumulation over the next 8 hours. Pleeeeease. -
Seriously. On that note
Rant: my school lets us know via facebook if school is canceled by "6am" which means you gotta wake up and log-on to see if theres an update. Last time they posted it at 5:58am. -
^^BTW, congrats on your success. You should be seriously proud of yourself.
Rave: Fox says the temp dropped 5 degrees in the last hour and the storm is looping and strengthening and we're getting 12 - 15 inches. Need. Snow. Day. -
^ it definitely is looking crazier out there in the past 30 minutes or so

When I was in college, the policy was actually to show up to class and see if the prof came in

Luckily that was in the south and I think it only snowed (um, or sleeted and froze) once or twice while I was in that town. So at least you'll be in your jammies when you find out, right?
My school sent out an email today basically saying take public transit and stop whining. Haha. -
12-15 inches?!! wtf mate?!!! I have a final and a project due tomorrow and would love the reprieve...
-
Rave: "Due to inclement weather, the college is closed. All classes and activities are canceled."
Rave: I'm going back to bed. -
Rant: I am at work, being "essential".
Rave: LIRR had no delays this morning. -
Rave: fluffy snow and fun in the park this morning.
Rave: dog fully exhausted and I can get work done in peace.
Rant: still can't eat much despite HUNGER. I guess after my body, um, expelled all intestinal flora and stomach acid it might take a while to it working again. -

It was crazy this AM. The brownstone stoop was so deep in snow you couldn't see the steps it was all just a tall slide leading to the curb.
Rave: huge steak is marinading in the fridge for dinnah. noms! -

Like I'm going to Whole Food! ha. I was wondering if there's anywhere in the slope to get this stuff. I can guess where might have them but I don't feel like a foot search or calling them all. I haven't used these things in ages but I honestly didn't feel like they did anything for me when I last tried them. At this point though, I will do anything to EAT again.

Any drug store will have probiotics/acidopholus - although the quality will vary. You can start with whatever you can find and in the meantime order from Amazon
Howdy, Stranger!
