Ok, so this whole story starts last Thursday, when I was preparing for a trip to California. For a goofy ass skate competition 4 day trip deal. My plane ride to Cali was later on Friday night, so Thursday realized I needed to get new contact lenses. I had my last pair in and, I didn't want to go to Cali with out back ups. So I go to Wal-Mart and try to get some new contacts and I get their and my prescription is expired. The expiration date was the 7th month of this year so im like oh no I need contacts so I try to squabble over to another Wal-Mart to see if they over see the expiration date and give me some but it fails so I end up setting myself up an appointment early on Friday morning first exam of the day at 830 so I would have time to go around to other Wal-Mart after I got my new prescription if the one I was at didn’t have lenses. I wake up go in get my exam done and sure enough my eyes got worse so they upped the power on them a bit so I go and sit down in front of the mirror to put in my contacts and the doctor hands me my new packs of contacts but keep in mind I don’t have my contacts in and im kind of paying attention to trying to see more than anything else so he sets the packs on the table and says here the right and here’s the left eye and I missed him saying that so I just assumed he set them down right accordingly to my eyes, well then I put them in and pay and im walking out and notice everything's a bit weird, not really blurry just off and I just figured it was from the power getting boosted up a little bit, so I just thought nothing of it and went on saying to myself ill get used to it, never thinking that I actually might have put them in the wrong eyes, cuz ive never done that, and figured if I did do that it would just be blurry. so I get home and pack my stuff and get on the plane
then to my hotel room unpack go eat some food and go to sleep cuz I had to get up early to go to this skate comp and well when anyone’s in a skate comp your not your complete self so you feel different anyways so, flipped around contacts wouldn’t really seem to be the first thing you would notice felling weird about, so on with the competition I went blah blah blah, then we go to the hotel after that to get cleaned up and go eat then we get back to the hotel and I had like 3 beers before we went out for the after partying for the comp and when I get to the bar I get fed one shot then after that I had about 3 or 4 beers nothing to major right?... and well the last thing I remember was dancing under a disco ball and the next thing you know im waking up at 4 in the morning still fully dressed and notice a lil puke or something on my sleeve but though nothing of it because I didn’t remember puking and i usually wouldn’t throw up from drinking the little amount I did have to drink that night, so I just hopped in the shower cleaned up and then went back to sleep, and then I woke up the next day went to breakfast and the people I was with all the next day weren’t really with me all night and from what I remember the night wasn’t all that exciting so we didn’t even talk about it and just went on with our day but I did feel out of it a bit and figured it was just a little hangover possibly, then we went a skated over this rail and I was having a bit of a hard time getting over it so I just figured it was my hangover and that it was early so i blamed my problems on my hangover, then I get asked the question as im skating over it "do you like to go over the highest part of the rail" in a joking sarcastic way, but in my mind i felt like I was doing the right thing and going at it the right way but I guess I was wrong, anyways the whole rest of the day and the end of the day I was still out of it and though it was kind of weird for a hangover to last this long but still I just figured it was fine and it might have just been my surroundings and situation making me feel weird, but also I didn’t shit all day and went to sleep having to shit but couldn’t so I slept on it and randomly woke up at 3 in the morning to try to take a shit and couldn’t so at that point I kind of though maybe something was wrong but still went to sleep and finally when I woke up I took a shit i was relieved in more ways than one ;-) , but still all of Monday I was still out of it feeling weird and not all with it but this time I thought it was just from being extremely soar and tired from the day before so I went on with my day skate a bit and blah blah blah then got back to the hotel and it was time to pack cuz we had to go to the air port early the next morning but that night we had a 6 pack and a few beers left that we didn’t want to waste or leave behind so we drank them and went to bed woke up went to the airport and while I was waiting to get on my plain eating I had some little lady from Singapore asking all these weird questions about me and my health as if maybe she kind of saw something wrong with me but I just figured hey she’s just curious and I was the only one around to talk to, so then I get on my plane
get home got some food I normally eat when I home but this time it doesn’t quite sit well with me so I do what I do and finally get to sleep in my own bed with no interruptions in the morning and I finally got to get some nice sleep for the first time in 6 days, then I wake up the next day and am still feeling weird but not to bad I just still didn’t feel normal and so I go out to get some lunch and as im pulling into my drive way I scrape the right side of my truck on this pillar and was all pissed off a bit and thought it was just a careless mistake and went on with my day and this was last Wednesday that this happened. so then about an hour after I was inside after I scraped my truck I got invited by my buddy drew to go to a yeasayer/icy demons show so im like yeah sure why not i'll go its raining out and im soar so im not going to be able to skate, and at this time it was about 5pm then around 6 we go get some lunas pizza and head over to his house and we had a few beers before the show and then his friend Shay came and got us, us being Drew, Cody, Riki, and I, and she brought us to the show around 8ish and so we sit threw the show and it last about maybe 2 1/2 hours maybe 3 and we hop back in Shay's car and she brings us back to Drews house and were sitting there for about 30 mins and im about to go home and Steve calls and is like im having people over, so they all decide to go and convince me to go so im like sure i'll have some pregame thanksgiving fun at Steve’s why not so we get their and its about 11 - 1130 or so and there’s no beer when we get there, their just smoking some hookah so I give it a puff puff here and a puff puff there nothing much and then more beer gets their and I have like two maybe three and then we decide to leave and Cody gives us rides home and I go to sleep wake up the next morning to a nice thanksgiving meal around 11 o’clock with my moms side of my family the hang out for a bit before I walked down to my dads house for another meal with my dads side of my family around 3 o’clock and then I hang out their till about 5oclock after a big annual family game of left-right-center you know the dice gambling game
if you don’t know about it look it up cuz this is already to long for me to explain what it is. so then after losing my three dollars in the gambling game I walk back down to my moms house about 530 and fall asleep around 6 and wake back up around 930 or so and im like, ah theres probably something going on tonight, a party or something so ill ask around since it was raining and I couldn’t go out and skate again for the second day ina row, but for some reason I didn’t feel like drinking, something was just telling me that I didn’t want to drink, so then around 10 I get a call from Bighead-Bob saying he was going to a party at some Brittany’s girls house and that I should go so im like sure and Bob is friends with Drew live right by me so I asked Drew if he would like to go and I would pick him up and bring him home and I'd be his DD for the night cuz I wasn’t going to drink and so I got him went to the party but it wasn’t much of a party it was kind of more like a bulky kick back type thing and love was in the air LOL...
so then after the party Drew and I were hungry so on our way home I stopped off and got us some Ramiroz and we went to my dads and ate it, but the meat in my burrito wasn’t really cook that good it seemed like, so I didn’t eat it all, and didn’t really get fool then we both ended up falling asleep for like 15 mins or something the I woke up around 230 and went and check my emails on the computer down stairs while drew was still sleeping and then I went back to the room to wake him up and bring him home, and after I brought him home I went back to Ramiroz and got another burrito, but a different kind this time since my first one was funky and figured not to bother trying to go anywhere else cuz it was thanksgiving and everywhere would be closed, so I get it and im driving home and I go to pull into my drive way again and hit the same pillar again the same one from Wednesday both times making a right turn into my drive way, and fuck it up good this time
and so I park my truck and im like thinking dude this is two days in a row now that ive hit the same pillar pulling into my own drive way that ive been pulling into for 4 years now and ive never hit except for these two days in a row so I call my mom cuz she was in chandler about to get on a plane later that morning to go to Oklahoma and im like mom I think something’s wrong with me I hit the pillar again and so we talk on the phone for a bit and what not and I went to sleep with the conclusion that I just coincidentally hit the same pillar twice in a row and I just fucked up, but i wasn't really to sure about that conclusion, so then I get a call early in the morning from my mom waking me up asking me if I had hit my head in California at all and I said no cuz she thought maybe something was wrong with my depth perception and then she asked me about my contacts if they were still good and I told her that last Friday I got a new eye exam cuz she didnt know and that when I was done and the guy handed me my contacts I put them in not knowing 100% that they were in the right eyes but once they were in everything was clear so I figured it was fine, and then I told here that when I was walking out of the eye exam with the new contacts that everything did feel weird so we came to the conclusion that I had my contacts in the wrong eyes for a whole week and that’s what was causing me to run into this pillar two day ins row, so I call the eye doctor and ask them what’s it like when you put your contacts in your wrong eyes is it blurry and she says no you usually cant tell, so im like shit my assumption was wrong about thinking that they would be blurry if they were in the wrong eye, so I really thought our conclusion could be accurate about having them in the wrong eyes the whole week, so I went down to the same eye doctor for another exam and asked if I could take the exam with the pair of contacts in that I thought might have been wrong the whole time and he said no we couldn’t do it, as if he was saving his own ass from a mistake he could have easily made that early in the morning on a Friday, so then he had me take them out and throw them away defeating the hole purpose of my visit in the first place, so he gave me another exam with no contacts and its ended up matching the same prescription as what he gave me from the Friday before so on my way I went not completely satisfied with my visit, so then my mom calls me after and asks what happened and I said it was all fine but I didn’t get to get checked with the contacts that I had in the whole time so I didn’t really get to figure anything out and straight from there she made me go to the emergency room and make up a story that I hit my head skating so that I could get an MRI done to make sure nothing was wrong with my head and while I was in their I started to get asked all these questions and that was kind of when I realized that my right eye vision had been a bit bad for a few days, but before I had just figured it wasn’t really bad and that it was just from feeling weird the whole week and just being out of it a bit and from being soar and lacking sleep, so im in the emergency room all day Friday and get my eyes checked in there too and he said he could only check 2/3 of my eye and that their might be bleeding on the other 1/3 he couldn’t see or that I might have a retinal tear, so I kind of start getting worried about that a lil bit but not to much and then my MRI results come back and I find out everything is totally fine then I start getting even a lil more worried about that eye shit, so my mom set me up with a retinal exam for Saturday morning to have a doctor come in on call to check me out so I go home Friday night after the emergency room knowing all this shit might be wrong with my eyes and plus I didn’t get to eat all day, so all this is going threw my head and I never thought to go and test out switching my contacts around on purpose to see if it even made a difference in my eyes, I totally forgot cuz I was beyond that thinking something much worse was wrong with my eyes, so I go to sleep wake up at like 7 in the morning to get to my retinal exam at 830 and I go threw all this crazy torture on my eyes during this exam but when it was all said and done he tells me everything is perfectly healthy and fine, so im relieved and go home happy knowing nothings wrong with my eyes that’s to serious, so I get home and catch up on some sleep since neither one of the doctors wanted me skating or doing anything active, not even driving so I just picked sleeping as my pass time. so im sleeping like all day wake up at like 8pm and there’s a text from Cody asking if I wanted to go out and do something with him that night and I replied with a "nah im suppose to rest I got something wrong with my eye I think" so he replies with an "awe all right man", so im just on the computer looking up my symptoms on the computer trying to figure out what else could be wrong with me and at the same time im doing that im talking to someone on AIM and they asked me about my trip to Cali and how the contest and after party was and im like I don’t really remember the after party and thats all I had to say, and that it wasn’t to exciting and they replied "so you got pretty hammered then if you don’t remember" and im like "nah I didn’t even drink that much to not remember" then jokingly he replied "maybe you got roofied man does your butt hurt" I got a kick out of his joke but I really did take it into consideration that I did get roofied but not becuase of the whole butt hurting this because i didnt remeber shit so I looked up stories on the internet about people and getting roofied or other shit slipped into their drinks at bars, and sure enough I found an article about roofies and something called "return to work syndrome" its were the person that got roofie is out of it and feels weird for 48 hours and doesn’t want to return to work and in some cases the feeling can last up to 5 days and along with finding that story I looked up depth perception and date rape drugs and roofie and sure enough I find an article about getting roofied and drinking 2 days later and the alcohol reactivating the effects of the roofie causing you to have depth perception problems in some cases, so im like shit thinking to myself dude I got roofied and I did actually throw up last Saturday after the bar and that why I couldn’t shit the hole next day, cuz I threw it all up and and had nothing to shit out, then that explains why I felt out of it all this week, and then when I drank Monday night before the plane ride the next morning I reactivated the side effects that’s why I hit the pillar Wednesday when I woke up, then when I drank Wednesday before the show it reactivate the side effects even more for when I hit the pillar Thursday night and so that what I came up with and I was all worried like something was wrong with me and I couldn’t sleep then, so then I texted Cody and im like I got a story for you I want to see what you think so you can pick me up and ill go with you to this party but im still not going to drink I just want to tell people my story and see what they think, and so he picked me up about 1030 or so and we went to a party
and told some people and asked around and I got some other roofie stories from people and Riki told me that he might have got roofied in Mexico once cuz he didn’t remember his night and he said he felt out of it for like a week after that, so I went home and slept on it thinking that nothing to serious was wrong with me and that I just got roofied, then I woke up this morning and told my mom about that whole roofie scenario thing and she wasn’t much of a believer of it and that I was just over thinking everything, so I went out to eat with her for breakfast and we wrote down all these things that have been happening to me recently and she’s going to set me up a doctors appointment to get to the bottom of all this strange shit. so then when we get home from breakfast I realize that I still had never purposely tryed to switch my contacts around to see what it would do, so I grabbed my glasses and put them on upside down as if my contacts where in the wrong eyes and sure enough my vision wasn’t blurry at all like I thought it would be if I had my contacts in the wrong eyes but it was really weird almost like all the walls and floors I looked at were bubbled out like really rounded almost slightly fish eyed and that’s kind of how I remember it being when I walked out of my eye exam last Friday thinking that nothing was wrong other than I wasn’t yet use to the increase of power in my new contacts yet. Now im just stuck here with these two main possible explanations of why all this weird stuff has been happening to me, the hole flipped around contact wrong eye situation or the whole possible roofie situation, but these two explanations are ones that I might be convincing myself that I have because they are the less serious short term solutions to all my weird problems recently, so you try to decide and let me know what you think! toodles!!! XOXOXO!!
