Oh gawd I have the Runs N....urghh Food poisoning..? (Part2)

My nightmare started on Friday morning, hence the blog I wrote and it continued till yesterday (16/7/2012).I think I must have soaped my ass countless times. I got hold of my husband telepathically on that Friday morning (Yes! I’m still a prepaid user, tragic right??).He came back round 3am; sensing shit must have struck .Indeed shit has struck. Hubby got me all the medication I needed from hospital after work.

Maxalon = Vomiting
Charcoal Pills = Absorbing toxins
Lomotil = Green pill
ORS salts = Dehydration

I felt like a spineless squid as I lay in bed all day with occasional sprints to the loo. I was made to chug down water mixed with charcoal pills and ors. My appetite was rock bottom. Never mind that...what was about to happen next is *speechless*, not a drop of water from the tap...YES!! Major WATER disruption (Due to a pipe burst) and it had to happen at a crucial period and why the F does it have to happen around our area?.

Oh Joy, I’m having the runs and there’s no water .Shit will pile and having a caked ass isn’t something pleasant. So we checked into a Hotel in Town (A nice one as well The Belmont: Marco Polo Hotel with breakfast).Nothing like a glorious bath and rolling on fresh crisp sheets.


It’s now Wednesday noon, water is still unstable but hey least I’m not shitting in my pants anymore (After 4 strips of charcoal pills, Chinese medicine, lomotil ...anything..). Four Five days(I've lost count) of gastro intestinal splatter spray is enough.

Good news, I've lost 3 kilos:}...

(That is why I never liked FUCKING MACDONALD’s and it’s not the 1^st time I had food poisoning from MacD’s)..Where's Burger King???

Oh gawd I have the Runs N....urghh Food poisoning..?

I feel like crap. Food poisoning n crazy viral fever/infection is d bomb. Nothing like runny diarrhoea, projectile vomiting, fever, body ache whatever crazy symptoms which will drive a person insane.
I had Macdonalds for lunch, a large triple cheeseburger meal in which I didn’t finish. Came back and slept for two hours.
Woke up feeling rejuvenated (now I can’t sleep) and at that time, I felt okay. Two hours passed and then it struck me. I felt queasy in the tummy.Maybe taking a dump later should do the trick. About 5.20pm, time for KFC (I wanted to try the spicy Szechuan flavour, but the promo ended, hence I bought Original). I was contemplating to buy or not to buy. I got to eat,but my tummy says “No,don’t buy’.

Came back, Hiroshima needed to be bombed and I did justice until.........it kicked in....Every 5 second or so I ran to the throne. I had the friggin runs and it was sweet smelling (too descriptive?) and to top that, I wanted to throw up. Having the runs is not as bad as throwing up.

So total runs= 6 and throwing up =2. I gotta do something or else I’ll be sleeping in the loo.I ransacked the medicine cupboard, arghh Panadol active (Popped one just to stop throwing up)....It’s been 5hrs already, so far so good. Still having the runs..Dug deeper into medicine cupboard,Ahhhh!! Lomotil. My rosebud is sore. Anymore runs and it will bloom. It is now 1:30am and my stomach is making weird ass noises.

My dinner is in the fridge, my husband is at work and I can’t sleep..Oh joy!!

Usagi Drop

Title : Usagi Drop (Bunny Drop)
Episodes : 1-11
Author : Josei Manga written by Yumi Unita
Rating : 8.5/10

Synopsis:  When 30-year-old Daikichi returns home for his grandfather's funeral he learns about the existence of Rin, his grandfather's illegitimate six-year-old daughter by an unknown mother. The girl is an embarrassment to all his relatives and is treated as an outcast. Annoyed by their attitude, Daikichi decides to take care of Rin himself, even though he is single and has no experience raising a child. As Rin becomes part of his life, Daikichi experiences the hardship of a single parent (Taken from Wikipedia)

It is never easy raising a child moreover if you’re a single parent. I have a friend who constantly talks about having a child. Her contestant babbling about how awesome of a mum she’ll be and how she’s going to spoil her child rotten blahblahblahblah sends me to a boredom frenzy. All I can say to her is, a child is not a pet. You can’t even get you act together and you want a child?..INSANE..+ you need a man n my suggestion of a sperm bank is out.Seriously!!!

Anyways,I wish this anime was a lil longer.I get lazy reading mangas and I know there’s a continuation.Wish they could like make my life a lil simple by just prolonging the series a little..Uhh!!. Well give this anime a go.If u want to know what’s next,read the manga.Oh! and by the way RIN is adorable (anime n live action)

P/s : Life Action you say? yep you can get the full movie at You-tube with English Subs. Kenichi Matsuyama plays Daikichi . I didn't finish the movie.It bore me.Give it a try though.
