The disappearing puke
Posted on 17. Mar, 2010 by The LandLady in Confessions, Housemate stories
I’d been out one night on the tear with a few of the girls and had one too many. I woke up with a horrific hangover but also a sore throat – the kind of sore throat that you get after puking. I couldn’t remember puking though. There was no signs of vomit in the bathroom, on my clothes, anywhere. Even if my drink-soaked brain couldn’t tell me where or when I got sick, my throat just knew I had.
Months passed and it was time to move house and do the big clean up before getting our deposit back. A table at the end of my bed obscured much of the carpet on the floor from view. When I moved the table I found what resembled dried-in vomit on the floor. I thought back to the night I thought I had puked but couldn’t find any evidence of it.
I don’t know how I managed it, but I think I must have woken up in the middle of the night, needed to vomit and somehow managed to vomit under the bed.
Mystery solved, I decided to leave that section of floor till last to clean – it was going to take a lot of elbow grease to sort out. But as it happens, I got distracted and forgot to clean it before getting deposit back from landlord. I am still embarrassed to this day. I’m sure he thought we were awful tenants leaving puke-soaked carpets. It wasn’t intentional though!
