'Just Rewards (2)'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Only one of the best lines ever.
Hec, I think you're making the right call, tough as it is. I'm glad you'll likely be out of the hell-hole, but I really wish you weren't having to go through this.
It's about to happen to someone here I think, who completely rocks. Bastages.
Portland is still good. I made the mistake of watching the news last night and found out the the two main causes of air pollution here are cars and wood-burning fireplaces. Now I feel all guilty. Not guilty enough to not have fires, but still some guilt.
Well, smelt something! Build a hog farm or a coal mine! Get some industrial polutants goin' so the average resident can stop feeling so bad.

Your minion, huh? I've been worried about him.
Since it's the first day of your period, the sparkly things might be due to low blood pressure. I get them sometimes--do you feel a bit faint if you suddenly stand up?
Calli, I get the sparklies about half an hour before the pain starts. Also accompanying the visual fireworks is dizziness, for me. Luckily for me, Excedrin does the trick - asperin, Tylenol, and caffiene. The Excedrin Migraine crap? Exact same ingredients and dosage levels as regular Excedrin.
I talked with vw for a little bit last night. She sounded good. They are running all kinds of tests and are still trying to figure things out.
I have no migraine help - sleep is about the only thing that helps me.
K-Bug turns 16 on Monday. I am feeling vera old.

When Excedrin was approved for migraine use, Excedrin decided to create a new label for it, rather than simply slapping "also approved for migraine use" on their old boxes. It was a marketing decision. (And one that was pointed out repeatedly during the original launch -- their entire TV ad campaign was based around a "same product, new usage" slogan.)
Doesn't Excedrin Migraine also come with a helpful pamphlet about migraines?
, the sparkly things might be due to low blood pressure. I get them sometimes--do you feel a bit faint if you suddenly stand up?
Not particularly. (It's a good thing I have an office with a door that shuts--I just bopped in and out of my chair a few times to check.) Still, it makes sense. My blood pressue tends toward the low side.

I'm glad. Hmmmm. Halfway through the sparkle show I washed down some ibuprofen with a diet Coke for cramps and etc. Now I just have a mid-range headache and no real interest in lunch. I may have self-medicated my first migraine without even trying.
Thanks for the suggestions, folks. Interesting migraine tidbit--I just talked to one of my editors who used to have severe migraines about once a week. Ever since she got mono last year, followed by a low-grade Epstein-Barr infection she says she hasn't had one.
