and now I’m at the hospital in observation.

I don't know if a Buffista has managed to turn such an innocuous action into an injury since Ginger tried to keep Deb's cat from getting out and face planted and chipped her tooth.

I hope your noggin's okay! That's where you keep your spicy brains.

Our wings are not tired.

Noggin~ma, msbelle. Let us know what they have to say.

meara, 108 is a legit reason to bail.

Yes. Getting dehydrated after a migraine is not a good plan. Also, experience tells me people tend to get grumpy and bad moody when it is super hot so may cause friction too.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Health~ma, msbelle.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Scan is clear. They don’t want me driving. Waiting to get wound dealt with but I am finally in an ER room.

Geez, msbelle! I'm glad the scan is clear -- meaning, not a concussion? I hope they can treat your wound quickly and get you home to chill and be comfortable.

meara, do not camp in 108° weather, please.

We just had a lovely late lunch with a friend, and now I'm going to see Thor solo. I haven't been to a movie alone in a long time. Kind of exciting, and only three other tix sold so far, so I'm feeling pretty good Covid-safety wise.

Yes clear scan means no concussion or bleeding, I think.

I am getting some staples put in and then can go home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh jeez, msbelle! Glad you got helped and are OK.

Don't go camping in 108 degrees, meara! I just spent a couple of hours outside in 97 and that was too many.

In related news, I went to the movies by myself just yesterday! I love it.

msbelle-- you can have a clear scan and still have a concussion. Have you had trouble focusing your eyes? That happened to me and I didn't realize it at the time what was going on...also because I was really confused feeling. Concussion symptoms can sometimes show up later ..even days later . So keep an eye out for things like:

headache, light sensitivity, ringing in your ears, dizziness, vertigo. nausea, blurry vision, fatigue, irritablitity, outbursts of emotions, concentration problems etc.

I really hope you don't have a concussion msbelle but if you do start feeling off or if you have clusminess (also a symptom of a concussion) then you will want to call your doctor. They can't do that much really but if you have bad dizziness or nausea there is medicine for that (although it will make you sleepy).

meara-- don't go camping! It's WAY WAY too hot for that.
