Helloooooooo bloggy friends!

interestingly enough, I’m in a REALLY good mood.

I mean, really good.

If you knew how yesterday panned out, however, you might wonder how a good mood was POSSIBLE.

Remember that time, years ago, when I barfed in front of my students? (it was my first year of teaching… sometime in 07… blogging wasn’t nearly as candid, trust me)

Well, this may have been even a bit worse.

If you know me, you know that I have horrendous periods. I mean… it is normal for me to lose consciousness, barf, scream bloody murder…

Well, my plantar fasciitis is being treated with a topical patch, that happens to be the same anti-inflammatory medicine that I use to manage that “special time pain”. I didn’t double up on it, and so yesterday, Aunt Flizzo hit me like a ton of bricks…

I was at work, and trying to start my morning… started to feel nauseated, walked towards the bathroom, in hopes to make excellent barfs, when I started to feel it all going fuzzy. Instead of locking myself in a bathroom (where I would have passed out unattended-WINNING decision, kels!) I turned around and headed back into the grouping of coworkers including my principal and vice principal.

I stated, as clearly as possible, “I need help getting to the nurse! I NEED HELP GETTING TO THE NURSE!”

My principal, clear headed and calm as always grabbed me, tried to help me walk, but I was already melting to the floor.

I thank him for the fact that I didn’t lose any additional brain cells by cracking skull on the tiled hallway.

I blacked out for a minute, came to with a juicebox already propped in my hands, was hoisted into the wheelchair, lead into the nurses office, where my blood pressure and pulse eventually returned to normal.  WOOT WOOT!

After, they sent me home, and I slept for about a billion hours, curled up with sweet dala and darkside tinni:

Seriously, ladies, if you have a tame time of the month, please don’t take it for granted!!

So embarrassing, haha.

Anyway, I’m totally fine, and its all in a day’s work for us at kelseyville.

Good times.

xo.
