Boy, Did I Feel Stupid!

Ok, true story here.

A while back I was working the night shift and was relieved to have a few days off. On those days off I would sleep at night so I could spend time with hubby.

One night I was reading a really good book and had the lights on over the bed, I had a bit of a headache and had taken a couple of tylenol pm. Hubby was still up on the computer and didn't come to bed till much later. Well, I managed to rouse up thinking I had only dozed off for a minute or two and it was complete darkness!!! I panicked! I jumped out of bed and screeched, "Oh my God, I've gone freakin' blind!!!!!!", and took of running and ran right into the bathroom door head first.

My husband casually clicked on the light and looked at me and said, "Why is it that when people think they've gone blind they just take off running?"

I had no answer for that. I just know that's one of my greatest fears and thought that the headache was a precursor to my blindness. I panicked and couldn't breathe so I just took off running to see I find a source of light somewhere. I kept our room completely dark so I could sleep days so at night it's pitch black.

Oh well, just one of many moments that I'm not really proud of.
