All afternoon I kept getting this flickering in my peripheral vision. Early on in my pregnancy I had some dizzy spells with floating light motes and had to put my head down to recover. I wondered if I was developing some kind of late pregnancy condition. Of course I was too busy to stop and worry about it. Then I moved over to my table to review some files. The flickering got worse. As I looked up one of the flourescent tubes blew out. Duh. I may be sitting mostly in the dark right now but at least it's not a seizure.
