Warning! Not suitable for the weak of stomach!

Yesterday morning, I woke up and actually felt refreshed. I didn't have to be up quite yet, so I decided to eat breakfast instead of munching on something in the car on the way to work. I fixed myself a fairly large bowl of cereal and a glass of juice. I sat and watched part of the morning news, ate, and took my prenatal vitamin. Then I went up and took my shower. After the shower I started my regular routine... put contacts in, deodorant on, brush my teeth.

In the meantime, John had gotten up and was preparing to get in the shower, but had to "drop the kids off at the pool" first. Of course the smell hit as I was brushing my teeth. I gagged a couple of times, and then threw up a little in the sink. John figured that the smell was getting to me so he quickly finished up, put the toilet lid down, and scooted out of the bathroom. As he did that, I was thinking, "this is not going to go down the sink if I keep throwing up!" So, I turned to the toilet and threw up again, right on top of the toilet seat cover! I managed to get the lid open and threw up the remains of my breakfast in the toilet. To top things off, it even clogged the toilet!

My good start to the morning was gone, John was mad because he had to clean it up, and Roscoe was sad because I wouldn't let him "clean it up" too! I think that is the last time I eat breakfast first thing in the morning! (I'd rather throw up on an empty stomach!) And hopefully, John has learned not to stink up the bathroom while I am brushing my teeth!

My apologies to those who might have been embarrassed by my telling of this story!
