i had a horrible terrible no-good night the other night. i woke up from my nap and my hips and legs felt like they were not connected to the rest of my body right. and i had left hip/sciatic nerve pain. which made bending at the waist very tough. so i show up to work anyways, and i then get the fever chills and aches. and also, my intest-tines were angry with me. maybe because i ate, like, 3 very tasty oranges for lunch. too much? maybe.
sheesh man, it sucked.
luckily, my patients and i survived the night.
that was the first night of a four-fer. the next night, because i felt sooooo much better, i drank some GoLytely. it's the stuff we give patients as a bowel prep. basically, it makes you poop. everything in you. outside. in a hurry.
somebody was supposed to give it to their patient, but the patient hadn't finished their entire dose, so there was about half a gallon left over. so we played quarters. the other three nurses i was playing with weren't really serious about drinking any, so i just filled a cup and chugged her on down. pineapple flavor. really sweet. horrid aftertaste. no ill effects.
ha. good 'old iron belly. still got it.

At church camp we always used to do this skit called "Water Shortage". Basically 1 cup of water, 4 guys, a toothbrush and toothpaste. The anchor on that particular relay chugs the end result. Iron belly indeed.
yikes......even i would shy away from that one. THAT is an iron gut.
