To Vomit or Not to Vomit

So I woke up this morning and was whipping around getting ready for work, as usual. We have state testing today and a gazillion other things going on so I was on the ball---

I'm in the kitchen, making my egg beaters omelette, grabbing my lunch and snack for the day...as I'm running out the door, I grab my water bottle out of the fridge in my concious effort to get my 8 glasses in...

I'm in the car-boppin' to some good music and take a huge swig of my water.

Then, reality sets in. IT. IS. NOT. WATER.

Nope. It's vinegar. And I just drank a ton of it.

So, I'm trying not to throw up in the vehicle, looking for anything to wash down the burning taste in my mouth and throat. I got my hands on a few day old bottle of recycled (tap) water and guzzle it. Then, Vivian's day+ old juice cup. Down what's left of that. Ugh. Trying to make it to work.

Got here. Didn't puke. Guzzled more water, ate some pretzels. 2 hours later, my throat still burns a little and my stomach is churning at the very thought of it.
