What is a migraine?

Alex, I’ll take “Worst Possible Way to Spend Your Saturday” for a thousand, please.

So, I stay up a bit too late Friday night/Saturday morning — but, hey, I am chatting with one of my favoritest chat pals, so it’s OK to stay up a little later than usual. Sleep in ’til about 9:30 a.m., and when I awake: Massive headache. Feels like a sinus headache, but I’m not sure; those are usually much milder than migraines, so perhaps it’s simply wishful thinking on my part. I pop a handful of ibuprofen, which appears to do nothing for the pain in my head.

An hour or so later (about this time, I actually begin to lose track of all time), I decide to try some Tylenol 8-hour. And a granola bar. Apparently, this is a mistake: Now, along with being unable to find any comfortable position in which to sit, lie or stand, I am also feeling queasy, no matter what I do. (Fortunately [??], the queasiness subsibes once the various pain relievers and granola have vacated my system via the same way they entered my system ... bleh.)

Eventually, I sleep. Afterwards, The Lovely brings me chicken noodle soup, crackers, Coca-Cola and 7-Up. (You want a definition of “true love”? That’s it, baby, right there.)

: )

I’m feeling bettah today, thankfully.
