But when the slurred speech thing is happening, socialising is hard. Tiring.
ita, is this something you've experienced before with migranes and/or concussion? 'Cause my first reaction is seek medical attention. Now.
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thanks, guys.
The slurred speech either means I'm having a pain-free migraine, or it's something post concussive. I can talk around it, and do (it takes more concentration to make sure my tongue goes where I want it), but it's pretty exhausting.

They've done the head scan already. There's notthing more for them to do. I'm pretty sure it's post-concussive -- I'd have remembered this from before.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hey Jesse! What's the fifth root of 243?
I'm not mathy, ho!!
(hee!)
OK, here's a homework question: I have ten surveys with a zillion questions that I need to analyze. I'm inclined to just look through them and type up a paragraph about what each one said. Like "Person 1 said X and Y and Z," and then looking through the paragraphs to see where people intersected or not. Because with only ten respondents, it seems like a waste to do some big computer mathy analysis. Does this make sense to anyone else?
PS: Got your mail, sara, thanks!

Because books.

It's really not a good thing, either way. As in, check with your doctor about it, huh?

I'm with AmyLiz on the checking with the doctor, if this is a new thing. I really do wish your body would fix itself faster! (As I said to my friend with pancreatitis just yesterday. She asked what I had had for lunch, and I couldn't tell her, as it felt so taunty since she's currently on a low-fat, no spice, no fruit or vegetables diet. Oh! Does anyone here know anything about pancreatitis? She was looking for anecdotes.)

Oh Jesse, you don't want to hear my "anecdotes" on pancreatitis, so I won't share them.

Well, okay then. Let that brain of yours get some rest.

Oh dear. My friend seems to be getting better, but they still don't know why she had it in the first place, which is worrying.
And I meant anecdotes as opposed to the medical information she's been getting, not light-hearted stories.

I know what you meant Jesse, but I do think that my anecdotal evidence is a bit skewed.

I figured you did, just wanted to clarify in general. And she did say not to come back with really bad stories!
