This is something I just had to get out there and share to see if any one had something similar or at least as weird happen to them.
I just came back from a meeting about an upgrade the Web Infrastructure area is planning and we're trying to find unused database space to do some testing. At the meeting were: a chinese guy, an indian guy, a white gruesomely overweight guy, a transexual senior citizen and me. The indian and chinese guys had extremely difficult to understand accents and I found myself interpreting almost everything they said to the other 2 people. In the meantime I felt comfortably drowsy (no medicines weird foods consumed so far other than a granola bar and a cup of coffee). Suddenly about halfway through the meeting I felt like one of those time pieces that have a pivoting 'wire' with LEDs on the tip that rapidly move from left to right and give the impression of a holographic digital clock. Like I was being rapidly shaken (not stirred) left and right. I was trying to look at these people and keep my composture, but their faces seemed kind of blurred. That lasted for about 20 mins WHILE trying to interpret the accent-encrypted messages the indian and chinese guys were trying to convey.
I'm now back at my desk normally enjoying a reuben sandwich and fries.
Weird...  ....wait, what was I saying?

In all seriousness though, I get wierded out moments somedays. If I don't eat for long periods of time, my blood sugar gets all out of whack and I get what my grandma used to call "swimmy-headed."

| | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2004 Location: Northern Virginia | | | hmmm, interesting hypothesis. I never thought I had any type of blood sugar issues. I'll have to get more data on that. I still feel strange about the event ...you know, like an out of body experience or something.

I get hypoglycemia, and when my blood sugar dips, I get dizziness, a weird, out-of-it feeling, and a rapid, racing heartbeat.

edit: ... correction - Similar experiences except for the Chinese and Indian guys, or the trans-sexual senior, of course ....  But she has the over-weight white guy (me) in her face all of the time .....
