Congrats on the new car, Steph!
And glad to hear Finn is recovering well
Ginger's obit made me sad. Such an enormous loss

So we had our work Xmas lunch today. I had a caesar salad and one beer. I instantly started feeling bloated and full. I thought it was just the beer. But it didn't go away & I spent the evening with chills, under a bunch of blankets with the heat jacked up. I still can't have a sip of water without stomach cramps.
I don't know if it's coincidental bug or food poisoning. I don't think food poisoning hits that fast though.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Ginger would probably be annoyed by the "courageous battle" part.
This was my thought, too. Thank you for posting, Dana.
Anne, I'm glad Finn is okay.
Hooray for new car!
My burned fingers don't hurt like they did yesterday, but they're swollen and the skin feels kind of thick. I hope the Reynaud's doesn't cause a problem with healing. I suspect good blood flow is necessary for healing, but trying to keep my fingers warm without making the blistered spots hurt has been a little bit of a challenge.

Sue, I've had food poisoning hit a couple hours after eating a bad hamburger.

Nah, it can. On the rare occasion my cast-iron-to-food-poisoning stomach actually gets hit, it's pretty immediate. But the chills might indicate otherwise.
Selfsame gut is apparently freaking out over convo with my boss and prospect of talking to division. Not as bad as poisoning or roto, but angry. And I skipped the floor party, can't blame them. God I love carrying stresses physically. Been my shoulders since latest bullshit. Now this.

Please don't call anything I do a corageous battle unless I take someone down with me.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Ugh, sara. I hope the external situation is resolved soon, so the internal topsy-turvy can right itself. It sounds like there's more than a glimmer of hope, but my digits are still crossed.

I'm not counting on anything until I sign up for AURA's tiaacref. 2016 is AURA or a whole shitton of change and stress and soul sucking.

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.
Finn seems in good spirits despite it all, and had his dinner.
Funny how for such a dramatic symptom, it often leads to simple, easily treated diagnoses.

Ugh. My tum also does not do well with emotional turmoil, too.
I'm kind of hoping for short term food poisoning...my Christmas vacation starts this weekend. Can't go to my folks with a bug.
