24 HR WAL-MART AND ER

ok so funny story or maybe not so funny story. but a story nontheless.

I was hoping into the back of a van and wacked my head on the top door latch thing.

Didn't black out but immediately started puking everywhere and the world was spinning.

A couple hours later when I definitely wasn't feeling better Mary Ellen drove me in to the nearest hospital an hour + away. We arrived at the ER at about 10:30 were there about two hours. The whole entire time I didn't see any other patients. No one else came. No one else was there. No one else left. It made everything for me go very fast.
After a clear CT Scan they drugged me up on some anti-dizziness/nausea meds plus some tylenol for the ridiculous headache I had. It felt like an army of jackhammers going off in my head. and sent me on my way.

We stopped at the Wal-Mart the only thing in all of Woodland Park, minus the hospital, that's open at 1am and bought supplies before we headed back into the middle of nowhere.
I don't remember much of Wal-Mart but for some unknown reason I bought egg rolls and socks.

This morning I woke up at noon feeling very very hung over and still with a blazing headache.
