Six Syllable Sunday - You Knew It Was Coming ("The Vomit Meme")

List four things you hate about vomiting.
1. I hate the panic. Right. Before.
2. I hate that my suffering sounds are a lot like my pleasure sounds. Poor hubby.
3. I hate the very end, when there’s nothing left and my 40-plus year old abs refuse to give up.
4. I hate the tastes, smells, sights, sounds of vomit, but I’d opt for daily Downloading of the Menu if it didn’t come with Incapacitating Dizziness.

You’ve been vomiting for two hours. Do you remain on the bathroom floor or opt for a basin in a comfy spot? Why?
I’m getting to the bed, cuz life ain't worth living without comfort and propriety.

What is your favorite vomit basin and why?
I like a cake pans cuz they're shallow. I don’t have to lift my head.
(Yes I plan to replace every cake pan in my house when/if this ever stops. In the meantime; no brownies for the Savant fam.)

What is your favorite euphemism for vomit?
I like Technicolor Yawn right now, but readers know I’m fond of interchangeable Shouting/Yelling and Groceries/Lunch. I also enjoy "Giving a Rainbow Speech."

You've got vomit on your hand. Do you;
A) Wipe it on your pants?
B) Rinse it in the bowl?
C) Let the dog lick it clean?
A, definitely. That's why I hated fundies insisting I wear a skirt every day.

Place an X by all the things you’ve done.
Remove the Xs from the ones you have not.
Send it to your friends (including me).

  1. My heart just weeps for you!

    My problem is that I get nausea, but I don't actually throw up. I sometimes think that's worse, because at least throwing up makes the nausea go away, temporarily.

  4. I always use a wastebasket and keep it by the bed. I empty and rinse it out when the breather comes right after.

    My most embarrassing vomit moment goes way back. After every first kiss with a boy other than my husband I had to vomit. I guess that's how I knew my honey was the keeper:) Why are you vomiting?? Is it your "M" sickness? I can't remember how to spell it. Regardless feel better...you poor thing.

  8. How can someone make their own suffering and the subject of vomit so amusing? I'm also smiling at the comments above. What a cool bunch of ladies around here.

    Funny though your post was to read, I really, really hope you get better soon. Truth be known? ...Being sick actually *scares* me a little. Go figure.

  11. Who did you tag? You know that is what you are SUPPOSED to do. Don't break the chain.

    i shouldn't be snarky about vomiting...it's just not funny; unless of course, you are writing about and then it is instantly hilarious.
