Is there a bug going around?

I was about to head out for a party around an hour ago when I got horrible pain in my stomach, as if it were full of excess acid. I took antacids with no result. I've eaten a ton of crystallized ginger with minimal results. I am alternating between typing this and clutching my stomach.

AAAAAAAAAUUUUGH!

P.S.--To dinogrl: If I don't make it, you know why. :-(
