Not better. Not dying, but not better. Nor is my internet, because I couldn't bring myself to call Charter--half afraid I'd have to hang up and flee mid-call. Mostly just trying to hydrate at this point. Really, really want a Coke for some reason. There is no Coke. Woe.

Well really, can you blame us? Sparkles, unlike sprinkles, should not be ingested.

Don't let your knees lock up, this is key!

Indeed. Feel better soon.

Am sending feel better thoughts to you. I hope it wasn't the Sparkle candy, who knows what kind of antidote would be needed for that?? I somehow think Large Edward is behind this...

Anyway, sorry you have no Coke. Personally I have found that the best cure for oogyness is GingerAle with vanilla ice cream. But if you don't have Coke, you probably don't have that either, do you?

there is something about craving Coke when ill - OTC anti-nausea medication is often some kind of sugar syrup, similar to coke (before carbonation, of course). is there no one home to fetch you coke?

I always want coke if I'm sick, it always makes me *feel* like I'm going to get better although I don't if it has any actual medical benefits.

It actually does, or was thought to. Doctors used to prescribe Coke syrup, which was the brown thick sticky stuff without the fizzy water in it, for nausea and upset stomach. I found a bottle of it in a friend's grandmother's medicine cabinet when I was helping take care of her. Weird, nuh?

That would be back when it had real coca(ine) in it, right?
