On the Suck-O-Meter, there's a range of Things That Suck. For instance, dropping your food when you're about to take a bite of it sucks, right?
Getting sick right in the middle of present-opening on Christmas morning sucks.
Continuing to vomit all day long uncontrollably sucks more.
Vomiting to the point that the diarrhea you also have simultaneously makes an appearance really really sucks.
Learning midway through the day in the middle of all of this that Mom made gingerbread because she read this blog entry caps it all off nicely.
Edit, Friday morning: I actually managed to get some solid food down yesterday, in case anybody's wondering. I've missed an entire week of work, which should make next week just utterly grand. Bleh.

Oh man, that DOES suck. Or blows. Or both. Or whatever.
Any idea what caused it?
There's a weird virus going around here, too, that starts as a stomach problem then turns into fever, chills, cough and sneezing. Forty-eight hours later it's gone.
I've managed to avoid it, but if I get sick shortly after visiting your page I'm going to blame YOU.
Some kind of icky stomach-flu type thing. I tried blaming it on sympathy pregnancy-related illness, but Red wasn't having any of it.
I have several friends & extended acquaintances that are going thru it or have gone thru it within the last week. One of them actually got so dehydrated from the extended expulsions at both ends that he ended up in the ER. :s
