when you watch the trailer for "Riddick" and just scratch it off the list, crap. that looked decent to.
 
Your friends come in to find you wearing a duvet over your head...when they ask what's going on you tell them "its the cloud's' fault" & you're "not coming out until they stop making you sad"

Your housemate comes in to find you wearing a duvet over your head...and simply asks "have you fallen out with the clouds again?" Knowing the answer will be yes as per usual (;

Your boyfriend messages you to say he's found something that'll work great as an eyepatch & this is exciting news

You're writing a math paper & suddenly can't read...and you think its hilarious

You throw away all the forks

You hate lights & love sunglasses

You can sometimes be found sitting on the floor licking salt

Back in sixthform you hid under the desk in an IT room for hours...on more than one occasion...and screamed when discovered...

Sometimes you feel purple (or orange...or white...or green)
 
You go into the kitchen to wash up the dishes & fill the kitchen sink up with water but decide to go to the toilet before you start washing up. But after you finished in the toilet you do something else & forget about the dishes until you go in the kitchen 3 hours later to see the dishes still sitting there & the sink full of water (luckily I did turn of the kitchen taps before I went to the toilet) lmao.

You know you have epilepsy when:

* When you go to a city counsel meeting and argue a point, then sit down and ask your spouse what you just said. (I had know idea)

* When you realize that you are sleeping on a bath mat covered in just a towel as a blanket and it is the most comfortable spot in the world.

* When you go to the hospital and they ask if you would like your usual room.

when it takes a while to notice this, and this is ok
 
When your fiance is showing you a cool shirt he got... and you have to tell him that YOU got him that shirt for christmas...
And then you have to answer his next question.... Yes you were here for Christmas
 
Your mother needs to go grocery shopping and she makes you go inside with toothpaste(EEG) in your hair and u run into friends from high school.

Yep personal experience when I was in high school.
 
ER staff starts yelling at you: What is your name or do you know who the president is? and you respond with I'm not deaf just twisted in the head...

Yep I was a little aggravated at the moment.
 
When you turn around and you and the nurses say everybody thinks you work hear. Or what's that weird mark on your neck?Are you ok? lol shut up!
 
You wash a load of laundry, forget its there until the next day and then have to rinse it again and then that night still forget it and have to re-wash the clothes. and family wonders what takes so long to do a load of laundry. You tell them----Sorry my brain keeps short circuiting, do you have any jumper cables.......lol
 
you know your s/o loves you when they fight you to hold you to hold you on the toilet during a seizure, but not really because they love you, but because it is just easier to clean up poo from that position while it is in toiliet and they have horrific ocd. I watch her clean the tile with a tooth brush all the time. It has it's perks.
 
When everybody asks why are you talking so funny, Because you just got vns put in. And all the cute guys are really nice to you.
 
when you friends with someone and you have to say, "what to my drugs are normal, so I can beat you at video games." Because you don't want him to the have meet your emt friends while you aren't there.

you have a conversation to a mate, who is an electrition apprentice and are telling him you cant have surgery coz you will go blind and he offers to do it saying "I'll make sure to test it before I close it up" :roflmao:
