Hey there, SLNRLBF! Season's greetings to you, mate.
Teppy, I don't blame you for being embarrassed to hell, because this is a decidedly unsexy level of intimacy - but don't beat yourself up about it. These things DO happen. I'm sure that if your roles were reversed, you'd just be feeling bad for The Boy, and you wouldn't be blaming the poor sod for his illness.
Seconding what Laura said.
Do you put the eggs in the water and bring it to a boil or drop the eggs into boiling water?
Eggs in cold water and bring to a boil. I do the 4 minute thing too.

In lieu of latkes I'm eating hash brown patties.
Tep, I'm sorry you're having all the horrible GI distress.
Maybe just limit things to dry toast for a while, eh?
It's cold and rainy here. I've put brandy and kahlua into my coffee and I'm listening to my (quite excellent I must say) Swingtime Santa mix.
Emmett's homework is done, including extra credit timeline.
Aw, Teppy. That sucks. I've been there. Having someone there that can take care of you and deal with those sorts of things is a good thing, though.
I knew if DH could cope with that, he could help me through any sort of physical problem.
So eggs in cold water, bring to a boil, turn off heat, wait 4 minutes, nom nom nom? Or boil for four minutes, nom nom nom?
I HAZ MAGIC BEER.
A whole case!
Which is still sitting in the trunk of my car.
I can't leave cans or bottles of anything in the car or garage now. We had five cans of soda explode where they were stored in the garage. Too cold.
I should know enough to transfer that stuff into the house by the first of December.

Turn off heat or the eggs will crack.
Soft boiled eggs (IMO) are best with a liberal sprinkling of salt and pepper, eaten with buttered toast.
