OMG OMG OMG.

I had just dropped Alex off at school this morning when Michael called and said that he'd been throwing up. I picked him up and brought him home. Felt totally fine through my 10am meeting and 11am research subject and then started to feel ill. Threw up comprehensively. Came home and crawled into bed, feeling incredibly queasy, and discovered that Michael had thrown up an additional six times.

Since then, nausea and a couple of false alarms but no more vomiting for me. Michael is asleep. Nia (our nanny) has to leave now; she's managed to get Colin down for a nap and Alex ensconced in front of a video. But soon Colin will wake up and Alex will need something and I will have to be functional.

Posted a pathetic plea to Facebook for someone to come over later and get dinner for Alex and play with the kids.

Gods help me.

I'm so sorry. I hope that a white knight arrives. You guys have had way more than your fair share of sick this year.

I have a Marine Corps birthday event this evening, but if you can't find anyone else give me a call on my cell phone and I'll drop that and come over.

Oh god. Being an adult sucks sometimes.

If nothing else, can she make herself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and pretend to be the "grownup" for the evening?

Ugh. Hope you feel better soon.

Ugh, I'm sorry. I don't suppose the thought of popsicles as a special treat is that comforting, but if there are any left they might be just the thing.

BOO!!! If I was out there instead of in California, I'd totally come over!
