Hi Twilit

I am an ESL teacher, and I tried to answer your “upchuck” question here:
Meaning of attendence (“people like you dance attendence on me”)

If you say “I want to upchuck over you” it could mean a number of different things:

  1. I want to vomit because of you.
  2. I want to vomit from a position that is higher than you are.
  3. I want to vomit in such a way that none of the vomit lands on you.

The phrase “husband your time” would mean “use your time economically or sparingly”.

Perhaps one of the other teachers here will be able to answer your questions more to your satisfaction. :wink:
