Sorry to hear that, Ms. Mod. Was it Sunny's cooking or Trump's poll numbers that had you under the weather?

I was afraid at first it was my cooking but decided it had to be a flu. I'm not as diligent as I should be with sanitizing shopping cart handles and it finally caught up to me.

She said it was the stomach bug... not gouged out eyes.

Good thing I don't pay much attention to The Donald or his poll numbers or I'd probably be blind by now. I have heard that Costa Rica is American-friendly and an affordable place to live, though. I may need to brush up on my Spanish if the American voting public totally loses their minds and things go horribly wrong in November.

The 16 Stages of the Stomach Bug.

1. Holy crap, did I drink too much last night? Is that my stomach making that noise? I think I’ll just lie down.
2. Oh my god I’m going to be sick.
3. Wow, that was weird. At least I feel better now.
4. Oh god........ it’s back.
5. HOW CAN THIS STILL BE HAPPENING?
6. So. Thirsty. I’ll drink something. It should be fine.
7. WHY DID I DRINK THAT?
8. I’m going to die at any second.
9. Fell asleep hugging the toilet.
10. Wake up and drink a sip of water. Stomach makes some sort of tribal mating call.
11. Stumble out of bathroom onto couch. Turn TV on and see food commercial. OH GOD.
12. Vow to never, ever eat the food you threw up again.
13. Have people tell you you’re looking extra skinny. “Yeah it’s this new diet where I puke up every single thing that enters my stomach. It’s super fun.”
14. Live off diet of saltines and water for a solid week while slowly becoming addicted to a new Netflix show.
15. Think to yourself, “Hey that wasn’t so bad!”
16. See food that made you sick. Cry yourself to sleep.

What stage you at? :)
Is there a 17? :D

I hear The Donald is considering buying up the entire island of Costa Rica. :)

Then his knowledge of geography is just as good (not) as the rest of his ideas but I'm sure if anyone tried to point out that Costa Rica is a peninsula in Central America, he'd deny it. ;;D


Actually, I'm not sure if peninsula would even technically be correct since it is connected to land on either side but it is not an island.

Costa Rica is a country within the isthmus of Central America. Costa Rica does have two peninsulas:
Osa Peninsula and Nicoya Peninsula.
Geography lesson over, retired reacher returns to chores.;)
