Does insane still count as okay?

That's how I responded to a text today from my friend who asked "are you okay?" She said it does still count. So... YAY! I'm okay!!

Because... you see.... the Puke Fairy is back. And this time... it's personal. (Read that in the movie preview guy voice that you keep in your head).

Why do I always assume that when my kids say they don't feel well they're just faking it to get out of school? Why is my natural instinct to not believe them? Is it because when I was their age I would pretend to be sick so I could get out of school, like... ALL the time? Perhaps.... (hmmmm. I may be onto something here. Clearly further study is indicated).

Anyway, this morning they both said they didn't feel well and couldn't go to school. I didn't believe either of them. Then they both barfed. Suddenly I became a true believer. Child 2 has been barfing repeatedly, actually, and now is lying prone on the couch watching some really weird cartoon (that I'm almost certain just said "fuck") about bunnies that's kind of creeping me out.... and I'm BORED. SO BORED.

I should probably go through Google Reader since I have 360 unread blog posts I could read and comment on right now. I'm not sure I have the mental energy for that. So, I've been typing random phrases into Google to see what happens. Check it out!

Seriously, though... what IS the last name of the British Royal family? I've never given it a moment's thought until this very minute... AAAAAAAAAAAAND it's gone

OMG!! Twitter is gay??? Emily, did you know that???

The first thing that alcohol affects is your ability to not hit "send."

I would bet you a million dollars that only men were searching for how to put a tampon in

I actually selected one of these suggestions. Can you guess which one? Please ask me because I've learned so much and I totally want to share!!!!!!

Nothing?? WHAT THE FUCK, GOOGLE???

And a tip of the invisible hat to YOU, Mrs. Ped. Quite.

I'm sorry to hear about your kids being sick again! Ouch for the lot of you. You know, if I didn't know you lived where it's warm and the sun shines all the time and that you don't likely have a big natural gas powered heating system...I would watch for carbon monoxide poisoning with the way this cycles on and off...

Sorry the kids are sick. I hope they feel better soon. I will now proceed to spray my computer with Lysol as a precautionary measure. There's only so many more precious school days left and I don't want my kid to miss any of them.

Double puking. That's no fun. Your google searches are just another reminder of why I don't let my kids surf the net unsupervised.

I am famous fro that. I never believe my kids are sick. I don't know why because they have never lied about being sick, But if I don't see blood or puke or fever it's off to school they go. And then usually off I go to fetch them when the school calls an hour later.

Sorry about them being sick. Next time you get a minute, buy a bottle of peppermint Essential oil. You can use this as a "deterrent"--sprinkle a little on a washcloth, or put some in a humidifier and the smell will help to keep the nausea at bay.--it won't stop the puking, but it will help during the recovery/nausea/dry heave-y part.

And now i can rest easy knowing how to stop the Illuminati and where to research Merkin Mufflies.

I'm voting for the illuminati. I'd love to hear conspiracy theories galore!

And again, did you try the puking back at him? He'll be so stunned he won't know what to do. And it's only a *little* more mess for you to clean up...

And as a parent, I'm gonna say this right now. Little Einsteins > Mickey's Clubhouse.

That's right! And I learned that Christina Aguilera is being controlled by the Illuminati, along with ALL the rest of the music industry. Especially that Rhianna

Again with the puking? Seriously?? I feel like we should all take up a collection of air fresheners and carpet cleaner to send to you.

If insane is not okay, I don't want you to be okay. Wait . . . That sounded better in my head. Oh, well. I know you know what I mean, because we're both INSANE.

Downer on the puking. Still, you've got some way to go to get to the worst puke story I've got ;-)

Our little lad was about one and a half and started barfing in his cot. We got him out and stripped his sheets. I was holding him against me when he puked all down my back. Took my PJ's off and climbed into the bath with him so wifey could shower us both down. He was violently sick again, to the point where I was picking chunks out of my buttock crevice.

And no, I couldn't mentally get myself clean, no matter how long I spent in the shower :)

How are you not at the top of the Merkin list?

How DO you stop the illuminati?

Why would so many people ask Twitter if it was snowing in SF that it came up twice?

Why did you do this to me?

PS I am the opposite of you - whenever the girl even thought about being sick, I was like YES! PARTY TIME! I'm kind of surprised the truant officer never showed.

The word "barfing" is totally one of the best words out there. It makes me laugh out loud. Although WATCHING someone barf is pretty awful. I need to leave the room whenever it happens. So if I ever have kids, they're on their own.

I keep getting whiffs of barf now. Which is still better than the stiff breeze of barf at your house so I should stop complaining...

I'm sorry about the stomach nastiness visiting your family. Hope everyone is better soon.

So, this may or may not answer the question about the princes' last name because it wasn't a direct line of information, but I saw a pic of the princes in their flight suits for work, and their name badges said William Wales and Harry Wales, as in "William, Prince of Wales". So, there ya go. I know you were DYING to know. So you're welcome.
