Hangovers

My children have cake-hangovers. While everyone laughed and laughed at Ryker shoving handfuls of icing into his mouth - his stomach was trying to deal with this new substance. And it DID NOT LIKE IT. He awoke at 5:30am screaming and writhing in pain. He came out of it eventually and seemed fine the rest of the day. But, as the old saying goes, just when you think you're out of the woods - your preschooler spews all over his room. If that's not a saying, it should be, and it WILL be in our house now.

Here's how it would be staged if it were a play:
Both kids are safely down for a nap and Chuck has left for the mall (?). Lights come up as Jamie is feeding Ryker in the living room.
Noise in the hallway.
Jamie: "What's up Jack?"
Hall door opens. Jack enters living room.
Jack: "Umm, my bed is not clean anymore."
Cuddles with Jamie while she tries to figure out what that means. Jamie looks down at his shirt and notices a speck of something that looks and smells like vomit. It IS vomit.
Cue Flight of the Bumblebees music while the following transpires.
Grandmommy hustles to the bedroom to clean it up. It smells really badly so she tries to open the window, which is still covered in plastic from the winter. The curtain rod falls onto the floor. Jamie grabs a thermometer and starts to take Jack's temp. Ryker pulls the thermometer out from Jack's armpit and throws it into the dog's water dish. Jamie runs to help Grandmommy - Grandmommy tells Jamie to leave before SHE throws up. Jamie decides that's a good idea. Jamie goes back to the boys. Jamie calls Chuck's cell to make him come home.
Cue Chuck's phone ringing on the kitchen counter right next to Jamie.
Jamie tries to console Jack on the couch and then notices that Ryker has Tugboat's rawhide in his mouth.
Jamie: to the audience "I wonder what heinous illness Jack has contracted. And if he throws up again, I'm going to throw up too."
Jack: "Can we go to the water park now?"
