Closetus Vomitus


This is definitely one of those times where common sense tells me to STFU. Let this serve as proof that my mother is indeed correct, I have none. Otherwise, I surely wouldn’t admit that I had an unfortunate episode of vomitus in my closet this morning.

I should have known better. When I start coughing, if it’s more than a couple little hacks, I need to head for a bathroom. But, I was running a little late and performing the morning ritual, the closet stare. Two pair of shoes paid the price.

Thankfully, I am accomplished enough to control the trajectory, sparing my hanging clothes.

K seems to think the really shameful thing is that I laughed about it afterward. Maybe. It’s still funny, though.

  1. I’m a Sympathetic Hurler. Anyone barfs within ten feet of me and I’m hurling right along with them.

  2. are you still sick…what is up with that?

  3. Hmmm…disgusting, yet interesting. I’m not a vomiter, unless drunk.

    But lately I’ve had vomit-related dreams. Like either I’m unswallowing, or others are.

    Weird, man, really weird.

    And gross, man, really gross.

    I acquired that talent when I was pregnant. I vomited several times a day, EVERY DAY, all nine months (and 10 days beyond due date). I got so I could drive and vomit at the same time without making a mess of myself and the car. I’ve had a couple of asthma attacks, mostly when I was in marathon training, that sent me to the bathroom. Once that cough-induced gag reflex kicks in, it’s there for good.

    Thanks for NOT taking a picture of your barfed on shoes.

  5. Nah, I’m not sick, nor was I drunk. I just yack if I cough hard.

    kris…vomit dreams? Yikes!

    maggie, in the same room, we could find ourselves in a state of perptual puke.

    Trop, are you fucking kidding me? This doesn’t go away? Great. At least I get tickled at some of the places I’ve barfed.

  6. Ahhh Syd.
    Those unexpected cough/gag pukes are such a nuisance.
    The graphic was a riot, where do you find those???
    It reminds me of the notes my best friend & I used to send back & forth in jr high AND high school… We always drew a barf pile at the bottom .
    Rather hilarious, actually.

  7. Its ok Syd, just this morning I barfed in the ole bathroom sink while I was brushing my teeth ;o)
    Nothing sucks worse than brushing your teeth (which gags me) and THEN barfing……..so now I have to brush my teeth again…….such a vicous cycle!!

  8. kmae, I steal them from other people, of course.

    LOL litlsassy, that’s too damn funny.

  9. Did you do this before your hooving cough, too? I can count on one hand the number of times in my adult life (not counting hanging on street signs in college) I’ve puked. It freaks me out! Heck, I can’t even stand it when the animals puke!

  10. Maybe once or twice.

    It’s not that I enjoy it or anything, I just can’t help but laugh at places I’ve yacked lately.

    K is less amused.

  11. You get major points for your sense of humor, but I can certainly see how K might have a different perspective.

    Of course, (I’m not sure why I’m even admitting this) the last time I hurled, I was in bed and a fair portion of chunkage landed on my girl. She wasn’t amused either.

    And doing the laundry sucked ass.
