a water tower and some weird stuff
Apologies
to
any and all
who saw this post
on
Monday
I dont know
why or how
that
happened
I double checked
and
I had, indeed, set it to post on Wednesday
GAH!!
this was shot on broadway
near fairway
between 74th and 75th streets
or
maybe not
the other day
i was sitting at my desk in the office
when suddenly
my throat
developed
one of those dry spots
do you know what i mean?
one second i am fine
swallowing is easy
then suddenly
there's a spot on the inside of my throat
that feels
oddly dry
as if
when i swallow
its pulling
the rest of my throat in
causing me
to feel as if i am suffocating
okay
maybe
thats a slight exaggeration
but
still
its odd
drinking water
does not make it go away
it does
eventually
stop feeling weird
it goes away
taking
my voice with it
sort of
i dont become mute
tho i am sure some would wish that were the case
no
not mute
more
raspy
yeah
raspy
is the best explanation
in relating
this
to
Toonman
i got
quizzical
bordering on
skeptical
looks
and
a complete disclaimer
as to ever
having experienced this phenomena
does your throat do this?
its one of an assortment
of
odd body reactions
my body
seems to have
there's the tingling i get in my left shoulder for no apparent reason
which is totally unrelated
to the oddly scary heaviness
i occasionally feel
in either arm
once or twice
it happened to both arms at the same time
now
that
was
really
scary
both arms feeling weighted down
i dont even try to lift them
it would be impossible
it passes
usually in far less time than it feels
i did tell the doctor about this
because
i was sure
it was indicative of a stroke
but
he said it was from a pinched nerve
he insisted
it must happen
when i have been sitting too long
except it isnt
and
i told him so
he shook his head
said it was a pinched nerve
i didnt tell him what i thought of his diagnosis
i just tucked away his reaction
so
when
i do stroke out
i can say
told
ya
so
do you have weird body reactions
please say you do
or
Toonman will surely say
told
you
so
