today i gingerly emerge from the clutches of two days of the most perfectly horrigible stomach clenching peristaltic paralysis i can remember for some time. that is to say, i awaken this morning to the cautious realization that that lump of bile that was lodged behind my xiphisternum had finally taken its leave, together with its companion that niggling stretchy epigastric sensation that pretty much floored me yesterday, and i was free to move and eat. it is amazing what a bit of colic can do to a grown woman.
