Last night was one for the archives but because the mind can forget I have decided to record it for hopeful future laughs.It all began at dinner...Our evening menu was soup (roasted red pepper or tomato) and grilled cheese. Claire told me that she didn't feel good so she went to bed early(around 7:00pm). If only then I would have a clue what the rest of the night beheld!
Claire called to me at about 8:30 throwing up; then at 10:00pm Nathan came out of his room and quickly began vomiting. At about 11:30pm both Dave and Boyd joined the sick stomach club. Dave's vomiting is loud enough to wake the dead and cause great concern but Boyd demanded more attention. He, unlike others did not make it to the bathroom nor did he have a bowl. Instead Boyd leaned over his bed, (which is the top bunk) and threw up on Brigham's bed (the double below him) and covered it with his stomach contents. The next one to come along was Eli at about ten minutes to 2am. He woke up disoriented and thought he needed to go to the bathroom and while sitting on the toilet his stomach rebelled and dumped its entire capacity on the floor at his feet. Unfortunately, he was not the last to add to this motley crew...at about 2:15pm Ike began vomiting.
This continued until about 7:30am in the morning. Some threw up only a couple more times but others (Claire and Eli) seemed to have an endless supply of dry heaves. This was a long night with many bowls of '%#@%' to clean.
**Never again will we be eating roasted red pepper or tomato soup and grilled cheese!
