Welcome back! 

Still waiting on that welcome-home doobie...decided a taco wouldn't do it and instead went out to a proper sit-down restaurant for a giant chile relleno combo platter. Dead tired, barely able to keep my eyes open, going out was a way to stay awake a little longer in hopes of getting back in sync with PST.
 
The strategy failed spectacularly. Instead of the relaxing J and falling asleep to DSoM as planned, I instead got the worst case of food poisoning I've ever experienced and stayed up all night in excruciating gastronomical agony. I have never wanted sleep so badly. All I could think about was that I never did get around to writing a will.
 
Better now, I think. I didn't eat anything Saturday except saltines and water, finally passed out around 5:00 PM. woke up at 2:00 AM today feeling like I'd been run over by a jeepney. Still no appetite, but I'm optimistic that'll change once I finally roll that long-awaited marijuana cigarette tonight...
 

Not the homecoming you were hoping for, Dave. Hope you're feeling better. Once when I was in your shoes, a nurse told me to sip Gatorade when nothing else would stay down. Something about keeping your electrolytes in balance. Anyway, it helped a little. . . .

Gatorade, check. Next time, I'll give that a go. 
 
I can't hear "electrolytes" without thinking about Idiocracy.
 

Food poisoning is awful. I had a serious case many years ago and for two days I was so dizzy I could not even get up to reach the remote for the TV, which was stuck on a local news channel. I lay there in delirium listening to the same news reports over and over. Couldn't hold anything down - no food or water. On the second day I had this intense urge for Haribo candy - everything else made me wretch just to think about it. So I almost crawled to the store and bought some. Literally 10 minutes later, I was totally cured.

Wow!  I hope things stay better from now on!  

Haribo candy, got it. Wash it down with Gatorade. No votes for Pepto Bismol?
 
Had to google "Haribo candy" to find out it's Gummibären. At least, that's what it was called the last time I ate some (1972, Munich, Germany; motivation:Turkish Plate).

"Turkish Plate"
 
Is that a reverb?

Back in the UK a popular stoner snack is the Haribo "Tangfastics," some of the sourest candy you'll ever experience. I tried in vain to find it here in the US for years before giving up. And then I read that sour candy like this is so bad for your teeth you might as well swish battery acid. So I'm kinda glad I can't buy it any more.
