Ever had a concussion?

Two nights ago I got up to take a whiz at 2:00 AM and stepped on a tennis ball that one of the two dogs decided to leave next to my bed after I'd fallen asleep.

Ended up knocking over my rolling laptop table using my forehead. Pitch black, lying on the floor with the table, my PC, one of my guitars, and a fan laying on top of me while I'm seeing stars and have blood running down my face.

Yesterday was pretty much the immediate shock of it all. Today sucked. My skull hurts like hell, I'm dizzy, nausious, unsteady, massive headache all day, and this morning it took me about 2 hours to do some work that normally I'd get done in 30 minutes.

Not my first, but a concussion in your 20s is not the same as one in your latter 50s.
