I'm Mrs. Oh My Gosh That Brittny's Shameless

The Streak Has Ended

I’ve mentioned on more than one occasion my ten year long streak of being puke-free.

As odd as it sounds- I’m pretty proud of that streak. Sort of like Jerry Seinfeld was- until he ate the black and white cookie and erased ten years in a mere matter of minutes.

“My stomach is a freaking tank!” I tell people.

Some people are proud of their marathons or coin collections? Yeah- I’m proud of my amazing ability to keep my crap together when everyone else is on the floor.

Unfortunately, however, yesterday- 8 November 2008 my freakishly long puke-free streak came to a screeching halt.

Not once.

Not twice.

Maybe not even three or four times…

The streak has ended and my stomach is no longer made of iron.

It’s a sad, sad day in the B-Love house.

I feel as though this post ought to be full of hilarious vomit references embedded in each sentence, but I’m not feeling very creative. I think I flushed some of my pithiness down the toilet last night (amongst all sorts of other interesting things- way cooler and more colorful than pithiness).

So- here’s to day one on the long road to 2018.

Chances are history won’t repeat itself and I’ll find myself eating bad fish or chicken and hugging the toilet by 2010- but hey- a girl has to have goals right?

What a sad day indeed.  Hope you are feeling better!!

Dare I ask if it was food or drink that caused the streak to end?

Aw, I’m sorry!!

I was stupidly sick a couple weeks ago (as in I have no idea how many times I puked but it was A LOT...I lost 4 lbs in a morning) so I feel for you.

Hope you’re feeling better!

Yuck, I’m sorry!  I hope you feel better soon!!  That stinks your streak is over, too.  10 years is a long time!  And guess what...I have the same sort of thing, exactly, with puking!  I know what you mean, I have the same streak, and talk about it to people like it’s something I have accomplished! Except my streak is I haven’t puked since 4th grade.  I expect my luck will end sometime soon though.  I mean, that’s an insanely long streak (like 16+ years).  The last time was so traumatic (at school, didn’t make it to the bathroom, janitor had to be called, it got in my hair and on my glasses (what the heck?  glasses?) etc so I think that traumatized me so much that I have been able to not puke since then).
