gategrrlI just had an effing rotten evening. Mermaid bit the inside of her lip so hard it was bleeding (twice, she bit it twice in the same spot). We didn't have any mouthwash, so I mixed some hydrogen peroxide with water and had her put it on the bleeding spot. Unfortunately, the cup was exactly the same as my water cup, and I forgot that it had the mixture in it, and I took a swallow before realizing what it was-it was already in my stomach.
I called poison control and the woman on the other end told me not to eat or drink anything for about an hour, and that I might throw up. Joy. After much spitting. My mouth generates a lot of the stuff before I barf, so I *knew* it was coming. Sure enough, one hour later, in the bathroom, it was yakk time.
I still feel off, however, and although I don't think I'm going to use the trash can again, ugh. I can still taste the hydrogen peroxide in my mouth. And throat. Going down and coming back up.
Moral of the story: Never put hydrogen peroxide or anything like it in a glass that looks just like what you drink your water out of. It's not a good idea.
uuuugghhhhhhhhh
