Arizona Dreamin’

Concussion

<emergency blip>

I had a hankering for some strawberry Twizzler licorice last night so I made a run to the local Walgreen's just before they closed.

After coming out of the store, I opened my car door and I guess I simply wasn't paying attention when I sort of flung my body into the driver's seat because I forgot to duck my head.

WHACK! I slammed my noggin into the side of the roof of the car.

A friend took me to the ER in the city and stayed with me all night and into today.  I had a CT scan and it was fine.  I've spent hours sleeping and on pain medication.  I never lost consciousness but I was in shock and saw lots of stars.

It's a simple concussion and will just take time and rest for the headache to go away.  I had to get up and do a blip, though.  Can't let the streak break because of a little knock on the head now, can I?
