Blackout
Something weird at lunch today. Myself and two buddies are regular lunch companions, and we usually go out to get away from the office. We typically have a good time with laughs aplenty. Every so often, I laugh so hard my head hurts pretty bad. Once or twice, I've actually lost my ability to see for a few seconds.
Today I actually blacked out.
My friend was giving me a run-down on Vector Prime in the new Transformers cartoon, and it just struck me as pretty funny the way he was telling it (a grown man informing you that 'he is the guardian of the Omega Lock, which needs four cyber keys...' - read it yourself). I was laughing into the 'headache' stage when I apparently bonked the back of my head on the edge of the booth. I completely lost vision, memory, and motor control. When I came to a few seconds later, I felt pain where I hit my head (no swelling, no bleeding). My first words were, "I feel like I hit the back of my head." The friend who was telling me this said I did, and that my eyes sort of rolled back and my hand started twitching. For about five minutes, I was clammy. I think I freaked him out.
Right now, I only have a dull headache and feel a little out of it.
In any case, lunch was pretty good - five flavor chicken, wonton soup, and some sticky rice. One of our better lunch options.
Link of the moment: Since I'm feeling kind of strange, have fun with Modern Living / Neurotica Series. Sometimes, I feel like that guy.
