Saturday August 25th 2012, 11:25 pmThis bright Saturday starts off fine, another simple day, sublime actually. Working away, the drawing process moving smoothly and quite enjoying the flow of the results. Then after breakfast the world starts closing in around my head, a pressure and boxed narrowing, I know this dreaded sensation all too well. A bit of a swirling and a numbing sets in, and paradoxically heavy pain. My brain stutters thoughts and my speech crawls like its trying to catch up with reality. My head is floating in a sea of slight disorientation. My vision seems to go sideways, shaking hands jitter as I try to work some delicate brush effects, my nerves want to leap from my skin. The tremor floods into overdrive, even making it difficult to reach into the meds container, feeling a bit vulnerable. A sense of not being able to be still comes over me. Functionality becomes disjointed and sporadic, having to raise my concentration level to behave half normally while interacting with others. So at this point I just try to shut off, lay down for a bit, but relatively unsuccessful. This happens to me semi-regularly, enough to cause concern, I need to see a doctor when I can about this problem. The worst part, honestly, is dealing with it when wanting to have an intelligent coherent conversation with a friend, which was the plan for this evening. Fortunately it all subsides enough to manage, just hovers at a low level in the back of my head, and my arms feel a little heavier than normal, but other than that tonight was a good time catching up with one of my favorite people. Talking about comics and writing, applied to academics. He’s going to prescribe Batwoman: Hydrology to his Lit students this fall, have me into the class for some in-depth academic discussion. I’m intrigued and somewhat apprehensive as to what will come of it all, but the curiosity of seeing reactions from this unique point of view has me by a rope, should be a great learning experience at the very least. We then dovetail our conversation into our mutual love of Michael Moorcock. Thats the day in nutshell, sort of balances out.
