So I thought the eye strain was making me a little light headed last night (and maybe it was) but after I ate last night (fried zucchini) I started getting a little 'full and queasy' feeling. At first I thought, okay no big deal. Since the two zukes were small I ate both and maybe that was too much for me or since I had fried crab cakes the night before, maybe too much grease. But this wasn't gall bladder kinda pain. Food poisoning? It was fresh oil, crab cakes aside (it's not like Long John SIlvers changes oil after every fry).

Whatever it was,food poisoning or stomach 'flu' I was getting queasier all night with that 'food is sitting in my chest' feeling. By two o'clock it was like, nope, never gonna get to sleep this way. Getting sick didn't wait much longer than that. Blech. Still, felt immediately better and got a little sleep.

on a totally different and less TMI note, Straub's book "in the NIght Room" that I was babbling about last night is actually a sequel to "Lost Boy, Lost Girl" and I didn't even realize (tells you how much that book made an impression, to hell with the Stoker award it won, it wasn't very good). Worse, the two main characters in this book are writers, one 'wrote' LOst Boy and the other wrote "Night room." Argh. Oh and Mr. Straub when you have two writers, both homosexual naming one Tim and one Tom (even if Tom is NOT a major character so far) it's rather confusing and irritating at times (and I don't remember Tim being gay in the last book but I remember nothing about the last book)

Now see it is books like this that I wonder just exactly how do they get published, much less win awards?

There are so many unpublished writers out there that deserve to be published more than books like this *looks at her flist* Yup

Yep I agree. Well maybe the Straub book will get better...then again I didn't like the prequel (and I didn't know this was a sequel) my consolation, I didn't pay money for it
