i played myself

ha ha walking to work this morning was a carnival of frictionless surfaces. i wiped the fuck out on my own driveway before i'd gone three steps, and sat there for a moment contemplating my choices. i could go get into my car, but then i'd need to move dude's car. the roads weren't icy, just the sidewalks, but.
no, i soldiered on, walked to work. had to shuffle like an old lady, did a lot of flailing, but didn't fall any more, at least.

got to work, all is fine. ate breakfast at my desk. felt a little odd. mostly ok though. decided to make myself a cup of coffee.

drank some coffee, began to eat lunch. started feeling dizzy. thought, maybe i left it too late to eat! eat more. finished my lunch. and coffee. then drank a whole big thing of water.

i have pretty bad vertigo by now, and it's not improving! i've had sugar, i've had salt, i've had vitamins, i've had carbs and fruit and protein. i feel sort of queasy and quite dizzy.

well, i could leave early, but i'd just have to walk.

i don't have any way of getting a ride home. dude carpooled with someone else; he won't be home until 5:30. i guess i could wait until then and then have him get his car and come get me. it would be 6pm by then. i'd have to clock out and, i don't know, i guess i could still sit at my desk or something.

no, i'm better off walking home. i guess i'll leave at my normal time.

i'm not dizzy if i don't move, but if i move at all I'm miserable! this is very inconvenient. I feel like I did exactly the wrong thing but last time I had this problem it was dehydration, and the time before it was lack of caffeine, and the time before that it was low blood sugar, so drinking a bunch of coffee and a bunch of water should have fixed it, I feel like.

christ I wish I could teleport .I mean, i always wish that, just. more so right this moment.
