Where IS that place?

I fainted the other night. Now, it's not that big of a deal, and I'm having it looked into... throughly, but that's not really what I wanted to write about. I wanted to write about the dream-like thing that happens when you faint. If you've never fainted before, you won't know what I'm talking about, but if you have... there is a sort of dreamlike state that you move through while you are regaining your consciousness. And it's really odd. It's sort of what lucid dreaming would be like, if instead of being in a dream, I was in this weird static-y dimension where I know something is wrong and I know I am supposed to be aware of something, remembering something, but I just can't quite grasp it. All of this while there is a knowing feeling in the back of all of this, that something is really really wrong. Then reality slides back into view and all of a sudden, you are laying where you fell bathed in a cold sweat, reeling... for me, not from the fact that I just fainted, but because of the freakness from the dreamlike state.
I mean where IS that place? Where is your soul during this time? I mean obviously mine didn't take off because I'm here writing this now. But is it a different dimension or something? It's not like having an our of body experience, although similar in some ways. I have to research this. I'll let you know what I find.
