I did something really stupid.

Today I had to take a test so I could be considered for a county job that doesn't exist yet. (Long story.) It lasted about two hours during which time I had nothing to eat. Now, I did have a snack before I left, so I thought I'd be okay.
I was wrong.
About half way or two thirds, I'm not really quite sure, I started feeling funny. My stomach was growling and my fingers felt tingly like they were falling asleep. The test itself was pretty easy, but getting through it sure wasn't with the discomfort my body was going through.
By the time I finished the test my elbows ached and my legs felt like jelly. My head felt kinda wobbly, too. There was no way I was going to drive in that condition but what was I to do? I needed to find a vending machine and hope for something edible.
Well, there was one that offered lemonade, but that item was sold out. I went for a pop instead. First item on the ingredients list: high fructose corn syrup.
Hoo-boy. I drank just enough to feel semi-normal and then drove home.
I am so going to pay for that. Actually, I think I already am. Headache and some nausea to be precise. It's actually a little like a hangover without the fuzzy tongue.
From now on I line my pockets with me-friendly snacks. ~.~Current Mood:  hungover Current Music: (watching Forensic Files) |
