How's the migraine today, bonny?
Seska, thanks for the check-in. The migraine is not gone, but is more manageable today.
I'm still queasy, but no actual hurling...and the pain is getting worse...which generally means we are coming to the end.
Thankfully, there has been no vertigo, but my system is so touchy, I keep _thinking_ I'm about the go spinny. So, I'm lying on the floor and listening to, rather than watching, some SG-1 dvds.
Cagney knows something is up and was extra reactive when we went to go walk with his buddy Goose earlier. One of Goose's dads walked us home and handled Cagney's leash. Goose is the, paws down, BEST leash walker in the world...as many Greyhounds are. It was a teeny bit validating when M, who is a big 6'4" went wide-eyed over how strong Cagney is. Welcome to my upper body work out!
M suggested I stop in the coffee shop on the way back. That turned out to be a good idea. The coffee milkshake has reduced my headache some...sort of a tall Midol.
I hope this phase passes quickly. I've got stuff to do...and _really_ don't want to do it!
sj, I'm so sorry for your loss.

The extremely antiquated migraine med I take (Fioricet) has caffeine as an ingredient (as does Excedrin). It helps quite a bit.
If you have any fancy sort of Excedrin now, I suggest selling it and buying some heroin or something with your profits.

I'm deeply regretting that I don't have any. Because I loves me some sweet, sweet heroin. (And I'm pretty sure I could buy it on my own street, woo.)
I always assumed that Tylenol washed down with coffee was as good as Excedrin (though in retrospect, I have no idea how much caffeine Excedrin really has).
sj, sorry about your great-aunt.
Sorry about your aunt, sj.
Yeah...sorry for your loss.
Felicitations on your Natal Day, Zen.
What bonny said. Let there be cake! And then, set it on fire! Not a birthday unless something's burning, right?
bonny, I'm glad the migraine's improving--may that trend continue. And may you find something efficacious in holding it off or reducing its effects next time.
sj, I'm so sorry such a generous spirit has been lost. But as long as you remember her with as much love as your post held, she's never truly gone. She'll be an inspiration and a comfort to you as long as you remember her that way.
I'm so sorry for your loss, sj. And Bonny, those sound awful--I hope you find some relief.
