Well, I know this is going to be late to post because I am currently hiding in a dark room with the “ice hat” on. (Edit: called it! I slept till 1030 Wednesday morning.) I also call the thing our “hawk hat”. Whatever you call it, it is helping. Between the TheraIce frozen hat thingie, my usual cocktail of migraine meds, a full-sugar Coca-Cola (for the first time I don’t even know how long), a zero-sugar Gatorade, and a bit of drive-thru food, I hope I can get over this quickly.

I had to leave work early because of my stupid, pain-riddled body. Ugh. Just the lovely, ever-continuing adventures of the malfunctioning meatbag, I guess. I’m going to try and get some rest after I drink more water.

Take your meds, folks.

I called out of work today because I woke up at four am with a migraine so bad I threw up. It was wretched. I have been mainlining Imatrex, ibuprofen, and caffeine day in between trying to rest with my eyes closed.

I didn’t eat at all today until almost 10pm.

I’m going to bed.

Take your meds, folks.

Quick update because I feel like shit and wanna go to bed: still waiting for this week’s grades but I’m still loving school. Going to teach crocheting tomorrow before game. Bought Tina the third book in the Ruinous Love trilogy for her birthday but I’m totally going to give it to her early.

Take your meds, folks.
