Muito obrigada Mario e a todos pelas sugestoes. Esta resposta se encaixa mais no contexto geral, que seria estar pronto para o que der e vier, num sentido mais carnal.

pronto para ir ao gregório


Explanation:
This expression is more colloquial and perhaps more fitting for a txt between friends. It's a slang version of "prestes para vomitar".

Example sentence(s):
  • "Bebi tanto que estou pronto para ir ao Gregório."
