That’ll be something to do with the “hearing and vomiting” functions that ears were landed with. Not the best combination, especially when listening to other people vomit.

Hope he is lots better soon, however the projectile vomiting trick might come in handy if you fancied remaking The Exorcist on a budget *grin*

Very poor Oli. Very poor indeed.

And there is an update on the illness front. Kerry took Evan to the doctors yesterday and was told that he had an ear infection (discovered only by chance as Kerry pointed out that when you took his temperature in one ear it was higher than when you took it in the other – House MD would be proud).

He’s on some new anti-biotics and so hopefully that might help things (ear infections can cause vomiting in babies apparently)

I would rather have surgery without anesthesia than have the stomch flu make it’s gruesome rounds through our home.

Though I did just vomit a little in my mouth at the thought of canned spaghetti.

I’ve been watching momre episodes of House MD than I really ought (all three series in a fairly short space of time), and so I can conclude with almost no certainty whatsoever that the underlying problem is sarcoidosis, necrosis (and about three other oses) OR
a combination of the next door neighbour’s cat and a change of direction of the prevailing wind. And because it’s a Thursday.

Excuse my ramblings – I’m feeling a bit under the weather myself today, as I was disturbed from my American TV fest last night by a knock on the door. When I opened it, I was greeted by a 6 foot ladybird, who shouted all manner of obscenities at me, then punched me on the nose. Apparently this has happened to quite a few people I know – some of them suspect a conspiracy of sorts; others reckon that it’s a new wave of terrorism.

Personally, I just think there’s a nasty bug going round.
