I passed out

saucyminx · 02-05-2006, 09:35 PM

I just came back from a long journey early this morning. I must have been dehydrated or something and my fingers were slightly frostbitten (temperature outside was about -23). I got locked out and had to wait for someone to open the doors for me... turned out the stupid guard fell asleep and didn't hear me shouting and knocking at the door. Lucky thing I managed to put through a phone call to my friend (she was sleeping) and she promptly came down to alert the guard.

I wasn't even aware of the condition I was in until I stepped into my room and the warmth enveloped me. I was really thirsty and wanted to have a drink. Then I felt dizzy and nauseous, and the next thing you know I was flat on my back with a funny taste in my mouth and buzzing sounds in my ears and my friend was frantically trying to revive me.

That was scary. I slept a bit and now I'm up and running for AGers

.

...

I'm gonna sleep a bit more after this.

You have got to take care of yourself, girl!
Take it easy, relax, stay hydrated, and stay out of that absurdly cold weather! There is only one of you, and we don't want to lose you!

SakSquash · 02-05-2006, 10:16 PM

Youse was drunk!

Jeezus Cripes, Mira. Advice: when it is THAT cold out, map out your path to include warm pit stops along the way, say, every block or every 1 1/2 blocks. Take a thermos with you and stop somewhere to buy and fill it with piping hot coffee or tea, and sip it along the way to your destination.

Don't ever do that again, girl. Like Scottsie said, there's only one of you in this world and one less is one less too many.

Email me, sweets...

Karmillo · 02-06-2006, 02:30 AM

Do you not have a pair of gloves? At that temperature you should get yourself a big pair of big fuzzy warm gloves!

But apparently after a bit of searching they dont exist

Maybe wear 2 coats aswell...

@ Temps: LMAO!

Whoah guys. Calm down! I did put on my gloves. And heck, I wore a thermal, two sweaters and two coats, two pairs of stockings and really thick boots. I felt like Chewbacca! I ate before I left that stupid place. But it was quite cold inside the car, despite being provided with a thick blanket and covering myself with my jackets, as well.

@ Trep:

You're SJH's sweets, now??!

Wow the cold ate through all that? You could try tieing a bunch of hot water bottles to you

...unless they freeze

saucyminx · 02-06-2006, 03:28 AM

it was windy. The wind makes the cold worse. Is it like this in Finland?

I thought SJH was requesting someone e-mail him a Mars bar or something.

Japanese sweets suck

squarejawhero · 02-06-2006, 04:52 AM

Japanese sweets are ace. I love Beans.

Lucien21 · 02-06-2006, 04:54 AM

We have had a couple of people in the office bring some back from Japan.

They were multi coloured gooy jelly like substances and they are disgusting.

squarejawhero · 02-06-2006, 05:28 AM

Yeah, cos of course, they were representative of all the sweets in Japan.

Karmillo · 02-06-2006, 05:30 AM

what are pokey sticks by the way?

Of course but at least I based my opinion on having tried them.

Compromise.

Ok that particular brand of Japanese sweet sucks.

I refuse to comment on any other brands of Japanese delicacies.

Oh yes.

Btw, the cold has come back to Finland. Last night the temperature was about -20.

saucyminx · 02-06-2006, 05:45 AM

LMAO

You should try Konyaku jelly. It's great! They have fruits inside and the jelly's lovely. My favourite would be cherry.

Crap.

How miserable is that? Can someone sponsor me a free trip back to Malaysia? London? Anyone?

Shameless.
