Dear DAW, I'm so glad you are back among us! Food poisoning is miserable. I had it one time when I was working in LA from a restaurant on Larchmont. I wonder if you had shrimp in your chinese food? That's what got me. I've had it several other times and always when I was far from home, working, but the LA one was the worst because i HAD to work; we were only out there for a few days with a producer and director and there was no way I could not have worked. While I was in the worst throes of it (of should I say throws?) my mother called to tell me my beloved Grandmother died so I had to fly straight to Ohio to the funeral after the job. On top of that I got a cold and had to fly; I thought my head would explode and I couldn't hear for 2 days!
