Nah, it's just a couple of days. I'll give it a bit longer. It's keeping me eating healthy, anyway...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Gah, it's been a time. Matilda has now thrown up two nights in a row, about 90 minutes after the antibiotics each time. I seriously question whether any of it has actually gotten into her system, and whether we should keep doing it or call the doctor and ask about alternatives. I feel so terrible for her. She's on her third shirt of the evening (but she feels totally fine) and her belly has got to be totally empty at this point. And I'm pretty sure she is completely and utterly unmedicated, poor boo.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oh, that's just miserable. Poor boo, indeed.

Ugh JZ I'm so sorry. If it's an erythromycin ? A lot of people have that reaction. Ask me how I know....

Check your gene pool - I am allergic to E-mycin.
Sorry to hear that Matilda is ill - alth the "she feels totally fine" seems very typical of kiddos. Says the woman who is on week two of a cold that her kid got over in two days.
Today is the faculty/student lunch and a bad news budget meeting. If only they served booze at the lunch!

Poor Matilda. I hope she is feeling better soon.
Everything in the town TCG works is closed except for Town Hall where he works, and he has to work late tonight so I wad going to order delivery but he didn't shovel before he left. So, I don't think they'll deliver.

sj, do you have local listserv you could post on looking for a kid that wanted to earn a few bucks shoveling your walk? We also have a CASA de Maryland where we can hire workers to shovel, etc. [link] at reasonable rates.

There doesn't seem to be anything like that in my town. When I was a kid teenagers would go door to door offering to shovel for money. Does that not happen anymore or are the teenagers in my town just lazy?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Kids used to come over and shovel my drive for cash. Now they don't come by at all. Maybe they're all grown with jobs. Maybe that annoying kid who keeps running across my yard knocking my spacers over could come do some work. Yeah, right.

Yep, it's a mycin. We're gonna try making sure that she has something solid in her gut before the next dose.
And, agh, Sparky, that's awful. Booze, on management's dime, should be an absolute requirement for a lunch like that.
