What the what for real I'm not sure what's even going on right now

I'm not sure if the flickering lights in my office are actually flickering or if it's an optical illusion from my brain firing way too fast. Things at work just got insane.

I feel like I took a massive hit of ephedrine. It's awesome, but scary.

ADRENALINE WHOA.

Sounds like one of your florescent bulbs may be going out. They will do that when they get old, and while your eyes will compensate for it when you look directly at it, your peripheral vision will pick it up.

I feel that way when my blood sugar gets out of whack; it feels just like the adrenaline reaction after a fight-shakes and all.

My blood sugar is rock solid. I can fast for 24 hours with no problems. This is definitely adrenaline, like what I used to get when I took mini-thins.

I LOVE IT.

LOL! You're lucky! Mine doesn't often get out of whack, unless I've really overdone the sweets before not eating at all for way too long. Then I can get slammed with it.

No luck about it--I eat super carefully! =D

It could be both? Strobing florescent lights always make my pulse jump and my brain to speed up. There must be something chemical to it.

Definitely could be both!

I can see my bulbs doing that too. It's awful.

Isn't she perfect?

I love that!

I remember her best shot being the grease fire, but I can't find it online (well, not that I've looked that hard).

Man, Meryl Streep nailed her in Julie/Julia.

Are you lacking sleep? I get the endorphin rush from lack of sleep, makes me remember why I loved amphetamines so much.

I'm always lacking sleep. It's a problem. I wish I got an endorphin rush from that! =D

This was just craziness at work. The office was a madhouse for about four hours yesterday.

Ufdah!
So.. getting this cortisol/adrenal thingy fixed up is supposed to help with that. I hope.
If I have a chance soon to sit and formulate all those blog entries I keep planning to make. I need a shower voice-to-text thingy.

I really really really hope so.

I'm hearing him say that about three times normal speed. So I'm guessing that's a pretty accurate summation of how you feel.

Ha! Pretty much, yeah. I got home and crashed, though. That was a bummer.
