I'm coming out of a major haze from a bad case of food poisoning last night which triggered a horrid migraine which had me wishing between vomiting from the food poisoning and the vertigo, nausea and extreme pain of the migraine wishing that I was dead or at least in a deep coma.

The I couldn't honestly remember where I heck I was let alone what day today is. BAD.
Luckily, when the vomiting from the food poisoning struck my trash can was right next to my bed or I'd be having my carpets cleaned this weekend. BAD or maybe good.

Then I called my supervisor this morning in-between hurling and visiting the bathroom via crawling on the floor because of the vertigo. I called him at 4am, I think, and rambled about vomiting and the big D and food poisoning and how my back hurt from doubling over vomiting then basically said "I don't think I'll be able to withstand come in because I cannot crawl there while holding a trash bag and wearing a diaper and hitting himself in the head with a sledgehammer to stop the migraine pain."

WTF?

Great message to leave for your supervisor. I know this is the message I left because I apparently accidentally hit the record button on my phone so it recorded my outgoing call. So I wake up from my food poisoned, migraine coma and see that I have a message on my phone.

So I hit play and listen...

Hey that sounds like me. Hey that sounds like me rambling then pausing to hurl then coughing and spurting and resuming rambling. HEY THAT IS ME!

The whole weird shake and bake of confusion and TMI that I left that message for my supervisor? Crap if I was him I would administer a drug test to me the moment I step foot in the office tomorrow. But he is or should be fully aware of the hand I've been dealt with regard to my neurological situation.

Today is one of those days when I try not to or try to avoid speaking or writing or reading or even listening because things coming out don't make sense and information going into my brain don't make sense.

Anyway, I just read my post on John McCain and his comments on Spain and their leader on the Citizen section and I am shocked that anyone I can read WTF I wrote. I used the wrong words and tenses - called South American instead on South America. Among other errors. Jeez Louise.

I think I know what I was trying to say but things are jumbled.

My brain is so messed up. It makes me wonder whether I should embark on my next journey of going to UC Berkeley to study Architecture. I know I can handle the design/drawing/proportion aspect, the building code aspect and probably even the mathematical aspect but I suspect that any papers I write will be darn near Leonardo-esque by accident not by choice.

If your not familiar Leonardo (Da Vinci to those who like to refer to him by the name of the city he was born instead of by his name) anyway he wrote his notes backwards and sometimes in code. He used what's called "mirror writing". His backward coded writing was intentional, my writing is not intentionally backward and or coded, it's just like my brain has decided to start running the wrong way.

Well, I did get happy news from two family members today - both work in the financial world. My oldest nephew who is a Senior Financial Adviser/Analyst for Merrill Lynch is absolutely secure in his job. Which is terrific because he's got another baby (his fourth) on the way and he was diagnosed with MS about 3 years ago (weirdly just like his dad before him) and he needs to maintain his high salary and benefits to ensure the future financial health and welfare of his family. And my brother-in-law's baby sister who is a Senior Vice-President of Acquisitions and Mergers with Lehman Brothers says she's been informed that her job is safe at least for the next three months because her division is making money hand over fist. My thought is maybe our nephew the big mucky mucky with Merrill Lynch now BofA that he can hire his aunt.

That's all for my randomness...maybe tomorrow will be a good day.

Oh wait FYI my food poisoning came from eating a VEGETARIAN SANDWICH! Third major case of food poisoning and all have been from Vegetarian dishes or fresh fruit. What the heck is up with that?

((How long did it take me to write this? Just over and hour and half because I had to re-read and re-read and re-read to try to have it make some sense. Damn you rebel brain!))
