Why must we have such a love-hate relationship?
I woke up vomiting in the middle of the night and preceded to get sick five times. I made myself a nice little bed on the floor of the bathroom as I couldn’t get up without getting sick; sleeping on shared bathroom floors are the BEST.
Ah, Morocco.
Who knows what the cause was for the latest debacle; I’m the only one that’s sick and I’m praying its food poisoning and not the flu that my 18 closest friends and housemates could catch! Right before their Sahara Desert trip, mind you. I won’t mention the fact that I haven’t eaten anything different than my 18 new friends, but… but…. I want to have food poisoning and not be another contaminator! Or be a host of parasites as I’ve had stomach issues almost my whole time here!
EHHHH, Morocco!
Look on the bright side, though. If I got sick tomorrow, I would have missed Sandwich Thursday! I would miss Whole Fried Fish Wednesday over Sandwich Thursday any day. Or be contaminated on my flight home on Saturday. Yeah, it could be worse!
As a recently retired nurse (from Ballard, nonetheless!) who is in the group said, "Guess we’ll find out in 24 hours if it’s the flu or food poisoning!"
I’ll keep you posted,

PS- No need to leave on a bad note. Here are some pictures from the last couple of days…
Deep theological and cultural discussions outside on the terrace with Mohammed. Definitely a favorite time in my day.
Oh dear!! I am sorry to hear you are so sick!! I subbed in a library today and was doing inventory. I came across the books on Morocco and flipped through them, thinking of you and hoping you were having a wonderful day, too bad you were barfing :( Hope you feel better SOON!!

Oh Emiletea, you never cease to make me laugh!! You would be so proud- I didn't even faint this time! Drank my instant orange Tang, which is a bit like Sunny D.... ;)
ReplyDeleteMiss you! Any other subbing jobs coming up for the fall? Oh gosh, it IS the fall!!
Nicole- You are still sick?? You have been sick the whole time, I am so sorry!! I still want you to give the kiddes a hug for me tomorrow though when you leave. And because I know what the bathroom there looks like, I can clearly say YUCK. It will be hard to leave, but think of your comfy bed just waiting for you. Stay strong (oh, and ps- regarding your last blog, you had a huge impact...and not just in the lives of the orphans...)

Way to not faint!! Although it would be kinda cool to have fainted in Africa, but I mean, not fainting in Africa is even better! Glad you are feeling better!
