Counterproductivity

Just worked after a couple days off.

I was slow as hell for two hours. I had the top speed and all, but not the ability to sustain it.

I think I set a record for lack of productivity the last hour, at least for someone trying to get things done. Pissed off one guy, too. He wanted me to do less and rest more. See, my blood pressure tanked (the top number was pretty constant, but the bottom number was 10 points lower than usual), which took out my balance. I never fell, but I was walking kind of oddly, and after a while, it led to nausea. Still, I actually clocked out early with the job done, though not as soon as if I'd been real help.

Some water at work, and some sleep at home, and I'm feeling ok (I highly doubt a sip of water and two potato chips that nearly made me puke helped), but I guess I need to make sure I have something to eat and stay hydrated at work again. It's not like this happens often, but it does recur from time to time, and always under similar circumstances: eating extra light and not drinking much = problems. Guess I really should learn to watch that...

Sometimes that happens to me. I am not always the "human trash compactor" as you call it. My friends often yell at me for not eating enough. The norm is 1x a day, sometimes with something light on the side around what is supposed to be lunch.

Not food + not drink + barely sleep = Brandon + dizzy. Prolly blood sugar or something. I was gonna pass out damn near last weekend and so I slammed a bottle of juice and then I was fine.
