Did Anyone Get The License Plate Of That Bus That Hit Me?

I had jury duty today and got there in plenty of time. I even felt fine when I sat on a panel but was dismissed back to the jury pool when the anticipated length of the trial overlapped my scheduled Cancun trip in a couple weeks.

Let's cut to the chase and not be too crude here. I wasn't feeling so good when we were released at 11:30 for lunch and things only got worse from there. I think I got food poisoning or stomach flu. The ladies running the jury room showed a high level of compassion when they let me go home at 2:30.

Every muscle in my body aches. Violent convulsions have made me feel as weak and frail as if I were 85 years old.

I want this to be over. I hurt physically. And that's why I haven't been blogging today.

Sounds like the Stomach Flu.
Miserable...
Hope it subsides soon.

Food poisoning is awful. When you can, be sure to drink some Gatorade or something so that you don't get dehydrated. If you start spiking a fever, go the ER.

That truly does suck! The only good thing about food poisoning is that it is usually short in duration. Now go shout Europe at the sink and forget about blogging today!
