It could be sinus headaches triggering migraines -- I wouldn't be surprised, seriously.

I've just spent an hour I didn't have playing Jigsawdoku. Bad Theo! I'd punish myself with no breakfast, but I'll be damn sorry if I do.

I don't have enough migraine meds to deal with the stuff I didn't know was migraines before now.

No shit. I'm already way beyond the amount of meds that the doctors say I should take, not to mention the insurance company.

But Sudafed doesn't touch them, so it's a question of comfort.

It used to be that normal headaches would become migraines for me, but if we count sinus as migraine, I have had very few normal headaches recently. Straight to migraine.

So, my new boss? On vacation for two weeks. I guess she'll actually be working from the beach this week, but still! I wasn't taking time this summer because I'm so new, and I've got two months of seniority on her!

I hope you can get your head fixed ita.

I've seen the quick vacation happen quite a bit with new people at places I've worked, don't know why.

They're usually leaving an old job that they disliked enough to find a new job, and have oodles of unspent vacation time. It's a burnout thing. Starting a new job without a break between the job that drained your soul can burn you out bad. It's a fresh start, recuperation.

And if you already had something planned when the new job came along, usually you make that part of the negotiation in taking on the new position. IME, anyway.

Oh, of course. And she wasn't even actively looking when she got recruited for this job, so no reason not to plan a vacation with her family. But still. It's easy enough to go back to the CEO for approvals and stuff, but she's not that easy to get to, either.

I couldn't agree with this anymore if I tried. I took a week between last job and this job and it was the best thing I could for myself.

Oh, you totally need a break between jobs! I took two weeks before I started here, and I had already been out of school for a week. That was awesome.

Supposedly, Osama bin Laden lusted after Whitney Houston and wanted to kill her husband Bobby Brown so he could marry her. Or so says a woman who claims to have been bin Laden's sex slave.

Boof says bin Laden couldn't stop talking about his favorite singer and had lofty plans for her. "He said he wanted to give [her] a mansion that he owned in a suburb of Khartoum. He explained to me that to possess Whitney, he would be willing to break his color rule and make her one of his wives."

But bin Laden's murderous side also emerged in his fantasies about the pop superstar. "[He would say] how beautiful she is," Boof claims, "what a nice smile she has, how truly Islamic she is but is just brainwashed by American culture and by her husband - Bobby Brown, whom Osama talked about having killed, as if it were normal to have womens' husbands killed.
