If I were superstitious, I'd say that someone was sending me a message. Blazing hot hotel room, bad WiFi. Then, something truly weird happened to me last night. I got up to go to the bathroom - last night's airplane dinner was not sitting well with me - and then I found myself lying on the floor, confused. I have no memory of falling down - I must have passed out. I came away from that with a scrape on the forehead and a sore front tooth (only thing I can figure is that I must have landed on it).

I had something similar happen to me when I was very sick as a teenager - but that time, I woke up on the way to the floor (and believe me, that was no fun). This time, I have no memory of passing out at all, nor of hitting the floor. When I woke up, I was disoriented enough to not be sure about where I was. Fortunately, everything seems fine this morning.

The only thing I can think of is that dinner - just before it happened, I had fairly intense discomfort in my lower abdomen. I sure hope the rest of the trip goes better than this...
