Mike, you are experiencing 'vertigo'. Or rather, the lack of balance. With your ears all messed up, your balance is off. Did you bust your head open, or break the tile in the shower???

It also is a side affect of pregnancy.

If a pregnant person gets up too quickly, all the blood rushes to the head, one gets the feeling of 'vertigo', and bam, dizzy, nauseated, and hit the deck.... 'thar she goes' is a common phrase relating to women in this predicament.

let's hope it is example 1 not 2 in your instance.

or, is that the 'problem' you're having with 'the girl at school?

Hmmmm.... a combination (SP??? and to think I got an A in Englisch ) of 1 and two, my ear went temporarily closed because she talks too much. Just kidding.

Purety sure its not #2.

Nope, didn't bust the tile or my head... when I woke up I was like (What the he!! just happened?) First time that has ever happened to me, but I have been fine ever since.

Talking glad you're better, and glad your not pg

here are some photos from the show today in Terrell, my hubby's hometown. We lived there for 15 years or so, and when my youngest finishes school we will live and die in 'big T'. Lucky me.

the show was ok. about 150 cars. I was number 145. got there really really late. (opening day of baseball in Terrell, had to go watch the 'first pitch yada yada yada... )
so, most of the participants had already voted. Needless to say, I didn't win anything. Had fun tho'. gave my mother in law a ride for the first time. Let several folks take pics of their kids, etc., in it. Should have sold photos for charity.....

one of my best 'old' friends has 2 sons in college. They didn't believe her when she told them I had a 'shelby cobra'. They were sure it was a mustang cobra, or something... so, took her pic in the cobra, so she can 'prove' it to them! Fun!
Was told the stupidest story I ever heard at a car show. will post it on that other 'dumb comments' thread.... I mean sooo stupid.

I kinda got sunburned. Have forgotten to put sunscreen in my bag. It will go in there now, since this is 'show season'. got AER coming up on May 7. We'll be there at 8 am, and leave around 5. That is my mother's day present. wow. good one!!!!
pictures:
my girls--


mother in law-- a saint in my life....

Mike, call your Dr. and tell him or her what happened. Trust me buddy....may have been vertigo, but you need to get it checked out. Anytime you lose consciousness, it needs to be investigated.

sorry, clay. did not mean to make light of his situation. With his ears stopped up, and getting out of a hot shower, I was thinking his balance may have just been messed up. Yes, Mike, it wouldn't hurt to get it checked out. See how you're feeling tomorrow. Take it easy at the drag races. Not kidding about the ear plugs!!!

Kristen, it never occurred to me that you were taking it lightly. But I appreciate you reinforcing to Mike that he needs to call a Doc. and talk about what happened.

Clay, I always listen to my elders, they have been around longer than me, and they have more expirience and knowledge than I do, so I am always up for a a piece of advice from an elder.

Kristen,

Those are great pictures and the girls are really cute. You look great in the Cobra too.

Mike, always listen to the advise of people like Clay and others that know about these things. Besides anyone younger than you wouldn't be able to talk yet and you couldn't get advise from them. I have a real problem with an inner ear infection that my sinuses will cause and it sounds as if that is almost the same symptoms that you had. I have had to go to my doctor several times because of this and it is very unpleasant.

Ron

Unhappy

Senior Moments

An elderly Floridian called 911 on her cell phone to report that
her car has been broken into. She is hysterical as she explains her
situation to the dispatcher: "They've stolen the stereo, the steering wheel, the brake pedal and even the accelerator!" she cried. The dispatcher said, "Stay calm. An officer is on the way" A few minutes later, the officer radios in.

"Disregard," He says. "She got in the back-seat by mistake."

Three sisters ages 92, 94 and 96 live in a house together. One
night the 96 year old draws a bath. She puts her foot in and pauses. She yells to the other sisters, "Was I getting in or out of the bath?" The 94 year old yells back, "I don't know. I'll come up and see." She starts up the stairs and pauses. "Was I going up the stairs or down?" The 92 year old is sitting at the kitchen table having tea listening to her sisters. She shakes her head and says, "I sure hope I never get that forgetful, knock on wood."


She then yells, "I'll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who's at the door."


* * * * *
Three retirees, each with a hearing loss, were playing golf one
fine March day. One remarked to the other, "Windy, isn't it?" "No," the
second man replied, "it's Thursday." And the third man chimed in, "So am I. Let's have a beer."

* * * * *

A little old lady was running up and down the halls in a nursing home.
As she walked, she would flip up the hem of her nightgown and say,
"Supersex." She walked up to an elderly man in a wheelchair. Flipping
her gown at him, she said, "Supersex." He sat silently for a moment or two and finally answered, "I'll take the soup."

* * * * *

An older couple were lying in bed one night. The husband was
falling asleep but the wife was in a romantic mood and wanted to talk. She said, "You used to hold my hand when we were courting." Wearily he reached across, held her hand for a second and tried to get back to sleep. A few moments later she said, "Then you used to kiss me." Mildly irritated, he reached across, gave her a peck on the cheek and settled down to sleep. Thirty seconds later she said, "Then you used to bite my neck" Angrily, he threw back the bed clothes and got out of bed. "Where are you going?", she asked.


"To get my teeth!"

Ron

Well, The boys have a sweep going for the weekend hockey tournament.

Kristen, you are going to need a big fnece around the yard with cute darlings like those. The boys are going to be hanging on the gate to the ranch.

Ron, well, got 4 of the eight items fixed. I may not have time to finish them this weekend. Reverse trick is where you put reverse in the lower left corner of the shift pattern instead of the upper left corner. Suposed to go to 73 today.

Got to leave for another game, see you all later.

Ron

Tru,

Hope that you get the rest fixed quickly. But why do you want reverse in the lower left corner? My 69 has it from the factory that way and I don't like it. The tendency when shifting from 1st to 2nd is for me to slightly pull the shift lever toward me and of course that means trying to go into reverse. I liked my 65 that had it in the left upper corner better. And it also had the T-Bar lockout. My 5 speed has it in the lower right hand corner, so that is no problem. Temperature here was 80 yesterday and looks as if could hit that today.
Hope the boys do well in the hockey tournament. Kristen is going to need an electric fence with big, bad dogs trained to hate boys in a couple of years.

Ron

Kristen,

Sorry about that. I was so busy thinking of all the fun you will have keeping the boys away from your daughters that I just glanced at the bottom picture. And you are correct. I had taken my glasses off.

Ron

Yes, it is a glorious day.

I hope I find that the sending unit on my speedo is fixable.

Kristen, I was talking about your two daughters. They are cuties.

New fan is so quiet, I almost put my fingers in it.

Ron, I would like to remove the tendency to put the car in reverse over first gear. It is just a matter of preference.

Four things left on the list of eight. I am making it happen.

You hope the sending unit is fixable? Are you kidding me? I laughed when I read that because I know YOU could make a new sending unit out of a paperclip and a piece of fuzz. Just whip one out Tru!

What shifter are you using? Stock shifter, or a Hurst? I'm using a Hurst Comp with a David Kee 427 handle....I think it would be almost impossible for me to get reverse when I meant 1st. First gear is easy....but if I wanna go into reverse, I have to give it an extra slap over to the left....and then I can go up. It's unmistakeable.

So how's that axle seal doing? I found some pics of when I was assembling my rearend....want me to send you a couple when I get home?
