As an avid downhill skier, I deal with altitude issues often. Best advice, is to stay hydrated to keep the skull crushing headaches at bay.

I may work in a -10 degree freezer, but I'm a big puss-eh when it comes to outdoors and cold. I'm with everyone - don't go. Lol
Don't you hear my call, though you're many years away, don't you hear me calling you?

My word of advice is to go, but like I said, take precautions. Do research. Don't get cocky, kid. No, wait. That's advice for when you're trying to shoot down TIE fighters. ;)

Not really. Some plans around the area. Lunch with my dad and stepmom Friday, yesterday was a baby shower for a friend at work. And today I'm going to Funspot in Laconia.

Went with the family Saturday to Hawes Farm in Anderson, CA. to pick the best example of a jarrahdale pumpkin (those squat, round bluish greenish ones around 6 to 10 lbs.) I could find. I make my own pumpkin puree and I find the jarrahdale variety to produce the smoothest, silkiest puree for pies and breads.

It was a lot of fun. They also have a corn maze, hay rides, etc.

Started to feel a little vertiginous at work last night, then woke up some time later in an ambulance on the way to the ER. Neurologist doesn’t believe I have a seizure disorder, though.

Wow, Mikey, sorry to hear that. What do doctors know anyway? How long have you had seizures?
