But big thumbs up to my migraine medication which is like magic. Took it after the appointment, laid down, and 90 minutes later I was renewed!

I need some of that! Last weekend I had a 3.5-day migraine that took me out of a couple of important days of work. I seem to be getting them much more often lately.

I'm expecting a migraine tomorrow, because it's 67 degrees right now, at almost 11 p.m., and will be 36 degrees by 8 a.m.

MADNESS. And then it's only going to get back up to about 47 tomorrow. Today's high was 77 or 78. No way my sinuses are going to be okay with all of that.

Also, I ate some popcorn earlier and I think a piece of the hull slid up under my gum line and I can't get it out. But then I aggressively flossed to try to get it out and now my gums are just angry in general. Boo.

We've got that same temperature curve going.

I wish I could figure out what my migraine triggers are. I probably should take an antihistamine/decongestant as a precaution.

Yeah, I can't really pre-medicate with my migraine meds, because they have caffeine in them and then I won't sleep. I may take ibuprofen before bed just in case, though.

From my tumblr feed tonight:

For those not following on twitter - Mike Pence went to Hamilton tonight - got booed by the entire audience, was subjected to massive extended applause after "Immigrants, we get the job done", and then King George sang "What Comes Next?" directly to him leading to a three minute standing ovation for the King.

Finally some good news.

The people will be heard.

Terrible day. Just really down.

I'm sorry, Gud. Please hang in there. And do get some exercise, if you can: the NYT reported on a study this week that really strongly supported the ways that exercise can help with depression. (Of course, it's very hard to exercise if one has chronic depression...)

The next thought was "Why was he in the shower at 4:30 in the morning?"

Indeed! But he sleeps poorly, and his overnight caregiver leaves at 7AM, so I guess she figured she'd help him shower if he was up anyway.

He seems to be okay, but I didn't want to take him out tonight and instead I went to see the new HP movie with my brother. Except he didn't ask my sister if she wanted to go until late, and now she's all pissed off. Family drama among 50-year-olds! Oy.

And now off to the movie thread to post my thoughts.

I really have to figure a way to make this happen. See also post menopausal women and osteoporosis. Impact exercise is the real answer to that one too. I have no excuses, and yet.

Since I have stopped watching news and rarely look at FB now there is more available time. Zoe has told me she would be delighted to walk with me any hour of day or night too.

I slept in. Plans for morning gym - oh well.

Bailey the dog and I are enjoying a lazy late morning.
