Yesterday afternoon, I was looking at some Excel sheets with my boss, and I did and said the DUMBEST THINGS EVER, one after the other after the other. Like, I would copy and paste a cell, and not 3 seconds later I would say, "Don't I have to copy and paste this cell here?" But...I had just done that! "Do you think that we should look in the shared folder for such-and-such file?" But...we were currently looking at that file! Which I found in the shared folder! When he told me to move some of the columns around, I sat there for maybe 5 (silent, awkward) seconds, not being able to think how to do that. I used the wrong shortcuts (like, I would hit ctrl+end instead of ctrl+v when I wanted to paste...how do you make that kind of mistake???). I was a total goof on the phone to people, not being able to put together a sentence, not being able to say good bye and hang up the phone. And on and on and on. It was so embarrassing! Then, this morning, I find I can't spell when I write long-hand. Carleton University? I wrote down Careloton. This is not a matter of making typos -- you don't make mistakes like this when you write with a pen! I leave out several letters in words, I write the wrong letters.... MY BRAIN IS DYING. *whimper* |
|
Maybe I have a brain tumor. I've been sleeping fine, even with the deadache. But boy am I hungry right now. |
|
Rest, you need rest. |
I feel your pain. The same thing started happening to my brain before I got back to school. I'd like to say that going back to school helps, and sometimes it does. But sometimes it just gives you more things to be stupid about. I'm not talking about the work. I'm talking about basic skills you thought you once mastered, like spelling and operating a shower. |
|
I feel dizzy, too, and my eyes are going weird. I hope I'm not getting an honest migraine now. Maybe I'll take tomorrow off and spend the day crying in my closet. |

i only get them when i am hung over. the explanation is obvious. if you get these headaches often, see a neurologist, perhaps. caffeine? stress? diet? i used to get headaches a lot often, but in the last few years. none. nada. maybe you're pregnant spider. nico is loosing her mind and stumbling mid sentence at times too. all the blood flow is *points* down there. |
I'd never had this kind of headache before. But let me stress that it did go away. Now I just feel dizzy. But maybe my monitor is flickering subliminally -- my old one used to do that and I'd get dizzy. Maybe I just need to eat. Maybe I'm getting a real migraine. You know that Queens of the Stone Age song where the guy groans softly in the chorus? That's what I feel like. *uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh* |
Speaking of headaches, I just had the strangest thing happen. I have a headache this morning, but I think it's just because I need some coffee. But anyway, I went to the bathroom to put my contacts in and when I looked in the mirror, the headache intensified. When I came back and sat down, it went back to just a dull ache. |

hoooo.... No, he doesn't look enough like he wants to put his head through the monitor. That is crucial. |
|
So I bought some new stuff to wash my toilet with and I can't figure out how to use it. I mean, I can't figure out how to get it out of the bottle. It's got one of those caps that are shaped to make the stuff go where it's supposed to. But I can't figure out how to make it work. Argh! |
the rest, i would just say maybe you've been distracted for some reason. |

thank you. |
|
we have to do a research paper soon on practically anything. our prof. said "Basically all you need is one question." What should I ask? I wonder if I can ask my question based on a generalization, like "Why are people so ignorant?" |
It's pretty much the same thing but it sounds better. |
