Shit.

I suddenly feel like I'm about to throw up. Or pass out. [livejournal.com profile] edie22, [livejournal.com profile] darkmattr, [livejournal.com profile] misswindy, are these symptoms of the Death Flu?

I'm not sure, honey, but a lot of people got food poisoning at D*Con, including [livejournal.com profile] plum_evil. Did you have any of those hamburgers they were selling in the Hyatt lobby? I'm reading that they made a lot of people sick. Just remember to keep really hydrated!!!!

Didn't have any of those nasty hamburgers, but some of the mall food made me sick. It's a little late for that now, though.

The problem is I'm trying to drink water, but it hurts to swallow. This is how I nearly landed myself in the hospital when I had mono in '97.

Not bloody likely, boys and girls.

What you are experiencing is the dreaded New Zealand Con Funk, which was brought to our shores by one of the members of the cast of The Tribe. It in turn was passed to the director of that track to her minions (of which I was one) and from thence spread to countless others.

But be of good cheer.. it's only about a 48 hour bug.

Did you have it? What are the symptoms?

[identity profile] arkhamrefugee.livejournal.com 2003-09-04 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
General malaise, weariness, sometimes dizzyness and nausea.

I knew it was them damn New Zealanders!

Heh... I just got a sore throat out of it. Then again, I didn't have any oral contact with anybody.

[livejournal.com profile] piperchan and I managed some cold type bug, but nothing serious. we're both sleeping hours and hours and hours and she's a tissue's worst nightmare but otherwise we're alright. Must have been several bugs going around.

I had the 12 dollar burger and managed to not get food poisoning this year. Yes, indeed, I am the girl who got taken away by ambulance at the end of Con two years ago...and it was because of Tofu, I wasn't beat up by my pimp for not making the nerds pay (the rumors get better every time I hear them). Just remember, do not ever eat food that is sitting out. Con can kill you that way.

Can't sleep. Con will eat me.
