Public displays of affliction
Geez, I'm clever with the titles- eh?

I was leading a meeting of three (including me) earlier today. Since there were only three of us, I was sitting down while going over my stuff. All of the sudden everything started going black and I felt as if I was in a weird dream. I kept trying to make it stop (yeah, like I have any control over it), but I wasn't having any luck. I was seeing double and felt like any minute I would fall off my chair and bonk my head. I couldn't make any sense of what I was doing or saying for several minutes (it seemed that way, anyway- not sure how long I was foggy).

Fortunately, the other people in the room know me very well (one is my favorite project manager "FPM") and so although it was super embarassing, it wasn't as bad as it could have been. One of them asked if I wanted to have her call 911.

Ummmm NO! Are you kidding me? This was embarassing enough. I don't even want to think about the scene that would have caused. I felt like a complete drama queen already, I didn't need cute guys in uniform tending to my needs.

Oh wait- maybe that was a mistake.

After the meeting, I had to stop and sit every so often on my way to my desk because I could feel the walls closing in on me. I'm still sitting at my desk, wondering when it'll be safe to go to the bathroom, let alone walk to the train station.

As I was writing this, I got an email from FPM:
FPM: You OK?
Me:Yep, thanks for asking. I think I'm going to stay in my seat for a while because I still feel 'funny'. This is the sort of thing that gets my head cracked open and frankly I don't think my head could take any more dents.
FPM: Let me know if you need anything. I draw the line at adult care related things but if you want coffee or something sign me up.

Funny guy....

I hope this stuff goes away before I make the trek to the train station. I really don't want to be passed out cold on the sidewalks of downtown Seattle. I prefer passing out in the comfort of my own home, TYVM.
