Busted noggin?
So the other night I hit my head. Hard. On the corner of the night stand. How? I was listening to music on my iPod and dancing in bed. No joke, not even a euphemism, this is just what I do while I'm "winding down" before sleep. Maybe that's why my dreams all come out so creepy.
I leave for Alabama in two days and already my insides are twisted tight by a wicked vice. There's always this pressure, for me at least, when I go back there because I want to seem better than when I left, which basically just leads to a lot of unnecessary self-loathing. Plus there's so much to do and so little time, so much to expect and so much to be let down by. What a mess. Today I'm totally out of whack and I'm not sure if it's just pre-travel jitters or if I really did something to my head. It hurts more every day, sometimes I think I can see a bruise but I'm not sure. Then I start thinking "what if I have a concussion? how do they fix a concussion? can you die from an untreated concussion? am I nuts to be turning an embarrassing knock on the noggin into a concussion?"
Probably just paranoia. Still hurts though.
