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

Awake is overrated. Awake with a migraine is worse.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I am awake and waiting for the coffee to brew. Awake is way overrated. Every time I hear my husband snore I weep with envy.

Hi, ita. My migraine waves at your migraine.
Also? I hate airplanes. A lot. Airplanes should be eradicated and then we would take long cushy luxurious train trips.

That trans-Pacific track to Hawaii would be a bitch to lay, though.

That would be some migraine-inducing travel, right there.

Oh God. My first visit to Disneyworld back in '88 I waited in line in the hot Florida sun two hours for that ride, which turned out to be the nearest facsimile of Hell I've ever experienced outside a Chuck E. Cheese's restaurant.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, you are brilliant! I was able to get my voicemail at home to text message my cell phone when I have a message.
Woo hoo! Yay technology.
I had an excellent airplane experience on Wednesday. I love flying the shuttle during actual business hours -- on a half-hour flight, they actually gave us lunch!!
