Title: woah, trippy
Post by: Sam on January 16, 2008, 11:03:15 AM
Let me set the background first. I'm sick. Really really really really really sick.

Okay, it's just a cold, but it's one of those horrible colds that makes you ache all over, with extremely stuffy nasal passages and a horrid sore throat and cramps and whatnot.

So anyway, I've been lying on the couch in my TV room pretty much since 6:00 last night. About 0 minutes ago, I decided to get up and see what time it was. Immediately when I stood up I got that weird blurred vision that you get from standing up too fast, and began to fall forward. To keep myself from falingforward, I took steps in that direction, towards the kitchen (where my clock is).

Obviously you guys don't know what my house's set-up is, so I'll explain. From couch into the far-end of my kitchen is a straight 20-foot or so walk. And I was blinded by my weird blurred vision just charging into my kitchen getting faster and faster. I was like.. semi-consious of what I was doing, but not entirely. It was weird. Somehow I managed to put my hands up just as i bowled into the fridge.

And now I'm gonna take a 30 minute walk to my school. yaaaay

Cool, I love when stuff like that happens

One time I had a terrible migraine, and I was lying on my bed on my back, with my head hanging off the side, and it was kinda dark but enough moonlight through the window to make everything out, and my perception of distance or something warped, and it seemed like a billion miles from me to the wall on the other side of the room.

It was amazing.

I think it has to do with the blood rush to your head. I've had it happen to me a lot of times after laying down for a while. befuddlement
