Divine Lunacy

I’m six days late with this one, but at least I’m blogging.

I began to feel sick during fourth period last Tuesday. Despite my poor condition, I signed out and bought some greasy, calorie-filled crap from Dunkin Donuts as I usually do. As the day progressed, I began to feel worse, until about sixth period, at which point I reached the pinnacle of crap. I opted not to change for gym because I was far too sickly to participate. (at least I wanted Mr. Hauser to think that…). I told him I wasn’t feeling well, yet he still refused to give me credit for the day. We were to begin team handball that day, and in preparation, we were watching a cheesy informational video about it. As the video played, my condition began to worsen as if it were in inverse proportion with the time left on the video. ( [condition]*[time left]=k, where k is some constant. ) By the time the movie was over, I felt like I was in an oven. Mr. Hauser instructed all those who were not changed to go sit against the bleachers. I stood up, walked over to the bleachers, and leaned my head against the top. The next thing I remember is Mr. Hauser saying “Greg, you just fainted. Are you alright?” I smartly responded “I don’t feel well!”. He then helped me stand up and sat me on his chair to wait for the nurse. By the time the nurse arrived, my vision had blurred so much that I could not see anything. My vision was restored immediately after the nurse laid me on the floor. I was fine, but they made me ride a wheel chair to the nurses office. I went home and lived happily ever after…

Not quite… I felt very feverish for the rest of the day, but that’s quite beside the point. I went to see the doctor later that day, just to make sure I wasn’t dead or anything. The food I had purchased from Dunkin Donuts earlier that day ended up on the floor of the waiting room… Enough said… I’m fine now. I was fine on Wednesday. It was all just a stomach virus.
