It's not a seizure, it's.........
Mon, 05/01/2006 - 04:59Topic: Corner Booth
Ever given an excuse for having a seizure, trying to cover one up or release the tension for those around you after one? Here's a few of mine...
1. My brain has the hiccups (Myoclonics - jerking).
2. Of course I was paying attention the first time you said it...I just want to make sure I heard you right (Absence seizures).
3. Whoops! Moved the chair, huh? (Drop seizures).
4. Now that I have your attention....(Not sure what I did but the whole room is bug-eyed).

Haha... cool excuses. I should use those too. Mine usually are either i'm day dreaming or i'm just a bit sleepy or opps i lost my balance or tripped over my own feet. Sometimes though, i just distract them away from me and shove the attention to someone else. hah...
