Someone at work said that LA's gotten its yearly rainfall already. I think that may be a bit steep (it's around 12 inches), but we did have 5 1/2 inches on just one day in December.
Oy.
I see your uhhhhhhhhhhh and raise you a gnyeh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

OK, we are off to watch America's Test Kitchens, that we dutifully taped while out getting groceries. Then, more Simpsons. SOmewhere in there we will eat carnitas burritos and tamales for lunch.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Quiet night. People must be sleeping.
I was! Wierd, huh?

What is even happening?
It is snowing like crazy here, right now. It started as sleety slush blah, but has been snowing pretty heavily for a while. The last time I saw the weather report (last night) it was supposed to be a mix of both. Dh just went out in the snow to buy beef stew fixings. I kind of wish he hadn't. I didn't realize how quickly it had accumulated.
It's very pretty, though.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We are doing mounds of laundry and trying to get the energy to go to the grocery store, so we have supplies for staying in during the Worst!Storm!Ever tonight. Poor BF had to go to work an hour after we got back on Tuesday and has had three 10-hour shooting days in a row. (Although they were at the car show with lots of cool machines to play with, so not SO bad.) He's wiped. I'm semi-wiped. A cold rainy day is a good day to stay in and clean and watch old movies.

If I only had a brain...
Hi, ita. I share your increased migrainitude. I wonder if it's the weather.
And why is it that I get to choose between migraine and stupidity? Even the migraine drugs that aren't officially pain-killers make me dumb. They dump me from the migraine into the post-migraine haze. Which beats the pain, but still.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Still raining down here. What a craptacular day.

It's weird -- either Imitrex makes it all go away, or does nothing.
For a while last night, the headache and nausea disappeared, and I was hopefully. But dear lord, was my neck sore! About an hour later the nausea, headache and general fuzz returned, and I couldn't feel the neck at all. Flexoril got me to sleep, and I have no pain today, but it's been, now that you mention it, a hair trigger not quite top of the world feeling during this heavy rain.

Betsy, in your case, I guess it really IS my friend's mantra of "No brain, no pain."

I am in pre-migraine nerve state myself. Not fun. I think it's less the rain than the air pressure (which often accompanies storms) that does it, but this theory is ENTIRELY pulled from my ass.
