Passing Out

I have to make the point to the powers that be that I have had enough of this passing out nonsense. It's remarkable the way that your brain just gets totally fried. You can't answer simple questions for hours, and sometimes even days afterwards. You completely forget that things have occurred, meaning they are simply nowhere in your memory. And you have trouble moving and generally feel weak. Of course, there's that period where you lose consciousness. I just don't really follow what this is about. I'm not doing anything unusual, and these last two times I was seated, which makes this even stranger. The official diagnosis is syncope, which doesn't really mean anything other than that you passed out. I'm sufficiently tired again to go back to sleep...
