Y’all, I have been deathly ill over here the past couple of days. In fact, I would say that I’ve had The.Worst.Stomach.Virus.Ever. I’ve had the chills, the sweats, achiness, vomiting, and other such related maladies that have left me weak and pitiful. I’m amazed that I can actually sit up long enough to hammer out this post.
This entire episode began on Sunday afternoon, which is just complete and total irony. Because on Sunday morning, I met my dad for breakfast at the IHOP, which is not only my most hated place to eat, but it also does not bode well for people on Weight Watchers. So, after perusing the menu, I decided that I would splurge—just for the day. I ordered eggs, and sausage links, and a biscuit with gravy, two pancakes, and cup of coffee. Shut up.
People, let me tell you, not only do those items not bode well for followers of Weight Watchers, they also do not bode well for people who have contracted The.Worst.Stomach.Virus.Ever. It was ugly. And I swear on my life, Lulu will never step foot in an IHOP again.
But, enough belly-aching about me (because Lord knows, I’ve done enough belly-aching). Let’s talk about the winner of the $25 Outback Steakhouse giftcard contest! Because there’s nothing like talking about a wonderful establishment like Outback Steakhouse after discussing a stomach virus. Sorry Outback!
Anyhow, because I’ve been on my death bed, I’ve decided to cut the midnight deadline short and draw from the current entrants. So…thanks to random.org, the winner is: AMomTwoBoys!! And goodness knows she deserves a little night on the town, because her wallet was recently stolen by some maniac named Sonja.
Thanks to you all for entering! And please know that if I haven’t stopped by in a few days to read your blog, I’ve been lying on the sofa curled up in a tiny little ball cursing IHOP.
Feel better soon, Lulu!

Aw man! I’m offline for a couple of days and look what I miss! An Outback contest!
I’m sorry you’ve been sick! But look on the bright side — at least you didn’t have to count those IHOP points!

Umm…Bad or Lulu but Yay for me!
:0)
If I lived closer and you didn’t have the stomach flu I would TOTALLY come take you to Outback with me. And we could SHARE a Bloomin’ Onion. No need to eat an entire one after having the nasties. They might come back.
Hope you’re feeling better soon!

Awwww….I’m so sorry that you’re on your death bed. I hope it’s at least a COMFY death bed. Nothing worse than having a lumpy death bed or irritating sheets of death. I have no idea where I’m going with this, so I’d better just stop.
Congrats to AMomTwoBoys!

Noooooo! Not IHOP!
Oh, I feel your pain. Well, almost. Okay, not at all, really, but I KNOW what it’s like to have tummy problems after IHOP! I never, never, NEVER eat there anymore.
Sure, it’s tasty, but Lordy, Lordy the problems afterwards! *ugh*
Feel better soon. And never, never, NEVER eat at IHOP again. Never.

I know I’m late to the party, but I hope you are feeling better. Can I just say that I LOVE IHOP. Love it. We are finally getting one in Pittsburgh and I’ve been stalking the construction, just itching for it to open. French toast will be mine soon, I just know it!
I’m sorry to reach your blog and find you so sick. The virus is definitely not fun - I had it for ten days at the end of spring last year. And I could have used that Outback giftcard last night - I took my family there
May you be feeling better soon!

You have my deepest sympathies. Stomach flu is the absolute worse thing to have! Hope you’re feeling better soon!
