this made me laugh so hard, haha thanks for that, the chocolate and store one sums up my relationship with my best friend but they're all good
 
"I rode my bike today- unless you want to hitch a ride on my handlebars?"

"I got the pictures back from my VEEG...I can literally see my brain seizing."

"Have some compassion..."
"F$&@ your compassion! I don't need your compassion! I need bandages, NeoSporin, and an ice pack!"

"I try to use the toilet every hour or so; it makes awkward things even just a little less awkward..."

"No! Don't!...go into that drawer. Ohhh....well great, okay, yeah okay. This is awkward because that's...well. Yes, that's a bra, and yes those are panties."
 
By this time I am being SO childlike they always laugh.

THat happens to me too!! People tell me I act like I'm on crack, or I act like I'm 4. So 4 year old on Crack is how I act all around the time of the seizure. SO I tell people to just escort me to the nurse when I act like that.

This happened just yesterday haha

"Do you know where you are?"
"I'm...on the floor...?"
"Well that's....true. Well, we'll come back to that in a few minutes...I'll rephrase that actually- do you know what building you're in?"
"I'm in a box."
"Kind of hahaha...you're in a room with wood beams and glass walls. Kind of a box...How about what day it is?"
"Thursday."
"Nope. It's not Thursday..."
"Friday?"
"No...."
"Uh...Monday?"
"No."
"Wednesday? Saturday?"
"No."
"Sunday. It's Sunday!" :)
"No...you've got one choice left."
"Thursday?"

Ahhhh, the postictal phase. Such joy.
 
My state's newspaper mis-printed the date yesterday. I thought it was Tuesday May 15,2012 but the paper said Thursday May 17, 2012, so I asked if i has a seizure and slept for two days... again.
 
Totally reading about misplacing items, reached for my phone that I was just using. And it's gone. No idea what I did with it, and I'm too lazy to get up and check the fridge >.<
 
Isn't it funny how we smell different things as an aura? I smell bleach, a friend smells citrus, you smell something burning...anyone else here smell anything as part of their auras?

I smell this really horrendous burning...it smells like someone set eggs on fire--the only way I know to describe it. Haha, the friend who smells citrus is pretty lucky! I wish I smelled vanilla or something geez.
