Goodnight, Jessie.

Well, I had an adventure tonight. I passed out on the train. The B line, to be specific. Luckily, Rob was with me. It was very sudden and bizarre. I'd been feeling fine all day and had been standing on the train for maybe 15 minutes or so - there were no seats... a charming part of riding the green line - and all of a sudden I felt tingly and light-headed and my vision started going dark. I had just told Rob I didn't feel well at all and thought we should get off the next stop. Next thing I knew, I was on the floor and Rob was asking if I was OK. The train was stopping so we got off that stop. Apparently I basically just slumped to the floor and freaked everyone out and was only out for a couple of seconds. But I guess I caused a big scene. When we got outside I thought I might be sick so I hovered by a garbage can waiting for the sick feeling to pass. Then we walked across the street to a CVS and got a drink for me because all I could think was that I was pretty thirsty and hungry and that I might be dehydrated or have low blood sugar.

Anyway, so now I'm fine but that wasn't very fun. I've passed out only like 2 other times in my life. One was a similar unexplained time except that I was hungry and hadn't eaten much that day. The other time was when I smartly laid out in the sun too long without drinking anything and gave myself heat exhaustion or whatever.

Also, one more quick note before I go - I also meant to complain that the other night I saw people on TV at a war protest chanting "Show me what democracy looks like". I don't know what their point was, but this is what it looks like. See how you get to protest and demonstrate and even say crazy things that make no sense and you don't get shut up or beat up or shot? God, people make me insane. At least say something that makes sense.
