Concussion

I hit my head on a wall pretty hard, feeling dizzy, sleepy and nauseous by turns and there's an abrasion right below my eyebrow, but no blurred vision or memory loss, thank goodness. The first thing I checked was whether my glasses were alright, which should tell you about my priorities.

I went to call my mom just in case, because if I get some sort of internal bleeding and die it'll be pretty poor if I didn't speak to my family first. She said she couldn't talk because she was cooking dinner for my brother who wanted to leave the house early, and I should call back in an hour. I didn't have the energy to explain precisely why I was calling, so I hung up.

You know, I think that hurt more than the actual head injury. Crap.
