Power Nap

So I've been feeling pretty shit lately... So shit in fact that I haven't been at work and the funny thing is everyone who hears I'm sick seems to immediately know exactly why. "It's all the drinking", "It's the random chicks at Tiger Tiger", "It's all the drinking", "It's burning the candle at both ends", "It's all the drinking".

After hearing these diagnoses from so many different sources I began to believe them myself, and hence decided (Thanks for the persuasion Wine) to consult a medical doctor just to be sure. Since I moved to the deep south from the deep north my family doctor is still the one I visit in the deep north, and this is where I traveled to this morning for my consult.

I didn't think too much of it at the time, partly because I drive through there quite often, and partly because the aircon in the tractor would be a nice chilled environment for some quality "me and my pod time". Before any of you get any dodgay ideas that's ipod ;-)

Although the doctor did confirm some funny medical things wrong with me he didn't seem to mention all the alternatives listed above, and he was sure that a round of antibiotics, some boosters and a quick voltaren shot would have me on my feet in no time. Following the voltaren shot I was back on my feet in no time, however this was short lived as I could feel myself getting cold... and everything starting to fade around me.

I woke up what seemed like an hour later after some of the most.. um.. I really don't know how to explain this... fucked up dreams I have ever had. Apparently I don't like needles, I should probably have told him this before I fell on the floor in a giant demonstration. Anyway, now he knows for sure.

Needless to say it was one of the best 10 second sleeps I have ever had, I would recommend it to anyone who is suffering from a lack of sleep due to "Fill in lack of sleep reason here".

I decided to have a cup of tea after the consult, with a spoon of sugar, to try and get that I'm back on the floor kind of feeling going, cause I felt kinda up there for a little while. Also thought this may help avoid a similar situation while driving home to the deep south, I didn't think I would get such a friendly awakening if it happened while behind the steering wheel of the tractor.

Anyway, seems to be working - feeling a lot better already, but then again this may just be due to the Power Nap.
