Saw Click last night... was pretty funny, and parts were rather demented. The movie kinda reminded me of an old Jetsons episode where George Jetson gets ahold of a Replay-ola, which pretty much allows him to do what Adam Sandler's character does in this one... except that George Jetson also had the ability to erase any event that he wanted. That proved to be his undoing as he inadvertently erased his wedding day while trying to prevent a rival from seducing his wife.
Minor spoiler: I wonder how many people are going to go to a "Bed, Bath & Beyond" and ask where's the "Beyond". :)
Switching gears: I went to an organizational picnic yesterday afternoon and I think there was something I ate either then or for dinner (I had a chicken salad) that overnight caused me to have the runs and throw up, symptoms of food poisoning. I had similar symptoms in Korea. I'm guessing it was probably dinner because the symptoms first manifested themselves in a rather weird dream combining both work and church, waking me up in a sweat and feeling nauseated, then heading to the bathroom where.... you know the rest. Interestingly enough, most of lunch and dinner had appeared to pass through my digestive system because the vomitus seemed to consist mostly of soda and some popcorn (I drank a large vanilla Coke during the movie and only ate a little bit of popcorn, nothing afterward).
So now the annoying thing is that while I didn't have to go to the hospital I do have to start off on a bland diet until my stomach settles, which I hope will be soon. I've already started drinking some water to replace stuff lost by dehydration but I'll probably be doing a market run later this morning -- if I feel up to it -- to get more bland stuff.
Today I was supposed to be helping out at church but I decided to pass until I feel better enough to go. Hopefully I'll be a bit better tomorrow.
