Wedding Curse

March 26, 2011 by Julie 75 Comments

It’s official. I am plagued with a wedding curse.

As you may remember, I was throwing up like it was cool two days before our wedding and awoke with a pink and crusty eye the day before Ryan and I exchanged our vows.

Apparently weddings have quite the effect on me and my health because after Ryan and I went to sleep last night, I awoke every two hours to spend some quality time in the bathroom.

Not so fun.

I really thought my sick feeling from Thursday was on the mend, but I don’t plan on moving from our big comfy hotel bed for quite some time in hopes of making it to the wedding tonight.

Don’t you love my meds to my left?

Ryan ran to CVS this morning to pick me up some Pepto Bismol and Imodium to hopefully make me feel better.

(Wanna know something strange? I love Pepto Bismol. I think it tastes delicious and have joked with my family that they should make Pepto flavored ice cream. I’m sick.)

While Ryan was out, he also swung by Starbucks and bought me a bowl of their oatmeal since we figured that would be really easy on my stomach and I clearly needed to eat something.

I added all of the toppings (brown sugar, dried fruit and nuts) and ate the whole thing… which I’m really hoping wasn’t a huge mistake.

I’ll check back in later. For now I have a hot date with The Parent Trap on ABC Family. I sure wish I was out exploring Ft. Myers right now. Our hotel is in such an adorable area and the sun is shining brightly.

Crossing my fingers for a quick turn around…

P.S. The Fashion page was updated last night. Smile

    Okay so typically when you are sick you need to eat really simple carbs…bread, bananas, applesauce, crackers, rice, etc. Nothing that takes work for your body to digest. So I hope that oatmeal works but I probaby would have stayed away from the nuts….hope it sits well though!! Sending good vibes your way so you can make it to the wedding!!!

    Eugh, when I was little I had to force down the Pepto, otherwise just thinking about its thick texture made me want to throw up. And now thinking about Pepto reminds me of that commercial they had on tv with that really catchy song…darn, I’m going to be singing it all day!

    Ohhh no 🙁 Get better quick!! It’s always the worst getting sick when you’re on vacation and you just wanna explore.

    Hahah too funny about the pepto bismol. I hate the taste, but I think it’s because I have a negative association with it, because objectively I can see it tasting good, I see your point about the ice cream flavour haha! I used to have a thing for cough syrups to the point that i’d exaggerate colds when I was little just to have some cough syrup.

    Did you know cooked shrimp (especially from a buffet or shrimp cocktail at a restaurant) is one of the biggest carriers of food poisoning? You may have gotten sick from the shrimp you had last night! It’s because they cook it then it touches other stuff and never gets hot/cooked again to prevent bacteria from growing. I always steer clear of the shrimp at events! Sorry you’re sick and hope you feel better soon!
