I wish this terrible sea-sick feeling would go away already. Argh.
It will (but I know it can't be soon enough).

Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
GC, Trader Joe's has some triple-ginger snaps that are awesome for nausea; little bite sized cookies in a big plastic tub, usually with the other tubs of cookies on the shelves over the frozen food section.
Also, sometimes a mid-morning protein/fat infusion, like a little bag of peanuts or cashews, can take the edge off.
And eventually it passes. But, ugh, it's no fun.

Hey Darth Vader did live a long, long time ago. But he was also far, far away so it's more a spacographical fail than a historical fail.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I carried a ziplock baggie full of lemon slices in my purse during my first trimester - they were perfect for the subway when I felt queasy but couldn't get immediate fresh air.

I have no experience with pregnancy, but a fair amount with nausea. I swear by the ginger hard candies that they sell at Whole Foods.

On kind of a tangent, I've discovered that Haagen Dasz makes a ginger ice cream ... not sure if it would be good for nausea, but it's yummy.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Aw, GC, I'm sorry about the morning sickness. That's no fun.
Toddson, I assume the fail there is the woman in the tartan with the Flemish lion?
