hallucinating

September 7, 2005

I’m sick!

2

I’ve got a pretty vicious cold that made me sweat through two layers of sheets the night before last. I hallucinated I was in a board game tournament, playing game after game, opponent after opponent – chutes n ladders, risk, pictionary, chess, LIFE – it wasn’t the fun it sounds.

I’m going to take the next few days to recoup. In the meanwhile, I’ll leave you with a story about a time when I got very very very sick!

I was in 8th grade and living in a duplex in Indianapolis, IN. It was winter and I got a nasty flu a terrible fever of about 103. I was trying to nap the flu away, not working, I awoke from my uncomfortable rest and saw the floor was on fire in my room! I panicked and leapt to my feet. I began working up a good bounce in the bed and jumped and rolled into the hallway judo-style to escape the fire. I thought everything was cool until I realized my hair was on fire, so I rushed to the bathroom and dunked my head in the toilet. My fever induced hallucination quickly subsided and I was left standing there with a self-served pseudo-swirlie. It felt a little strange. Moral: never dunk your head in the toilet, even if you are hallucinating.

If you have a good story, please add it!
