    Have you ever had a blackout before? They are scary things when they happen to you.

    I think I blacked out for an hour one morning. When I was driving to work, I realised that the traffic was lighter than usual, and shortly after, saw that it was a hour later than normal. I got to work about an hour late, wondering what happened. I set my alarm the usual time, got up, got dressed, yet somehow ended up leaving the house one hour later than I should have.

    I probably blacked out on the couch for about an hour when I sat to put my shoes in.

    When I was younger, I used to have very temporary "head rush" blackouts
    and, being young, I thought they were pretty neat. Usually happened if I
    got out of bed too quickly in the morning.

    Now that I am older, I occassionally have them. They are usually not as predictable and, yes, they worry me more now.

    I have never had the ones where I don't know what happened but I found I
    lost a significant amount of time.
