Okay, this has gotten out of hand. For the third day in a row, I've gotten the dizziness again. This time it started earlier and lasted longer, to the point where I was pretty sure I wouldn't be able to drive home. Elaine took me over to the HMO walk-in clinic this afternoon and they looked at me. They seemed to be homing in on my being sick a while back, and they said that they've seen a few people who had the flu who still have some sort of inner-ear infection. They took a blood sample and gave me some sort of medication, and said they'd do a test to see if I had the inner ear thing. Let's hope not. Hopefully this thing will just go away on its own.
By the time we'd gotten back to the office I figured I would be all right driving home, and I was. What I don't understand is why I'm not dizzy all the time.
It got so bad that for a while I was knocking into things when I walked down the hall, and I'm getting a big bruise on my hip from where I hit the water fountain down the hall from me. That thing is hard, and my hip still hurts. People were sort of steering around me in the hall and asking me if I was okay, so Elaine took it upon herself to tell them that no, Jeanne isn't stoned.
Special note to Doug from Vancouver: thanks for the offer, but I never get out there and I don't really like "water sports" much. You know what I mean.
Marcy warned me there'd be days like this when I put this site up, but it really takes all kinds.
What does "SOY BOMB" mean? Did anybody else see that? I watched the Grammys and this guy came out on stage while Bob Dylan played and did this really strange dance, and he had this phrase "SOY BOMB" on his chest. Eventually a couple of guys wrestled him off, but there was never any explanation of what it meant. I looked all over the web and the only thing I could find was at E! Online, which also includes a picture in case you didn't see it. Why, oh why did they have to have Tara Lipinski on that show?
Soy bomb. I've had some bad Chinese food, but nothing that I would call a "soy bomb."
