a little better now



Woke up this morning with a headache still plaguing me. 3 real cokes and an insane amount of ibuprofen and Excedrin migraine later, it is mostly gone. I'm glad to finally have some relief but I can feel it still lingering around above my right eye ever so slightly. Yuck. Migraines really are the worst. I hate getting them. I feel like I waste a day of my life, sitting in a dark room with a cold pack on my head.

Kat, Gary, and Lola came by while out for a walk. Tillie and Lola had a good time visiting. But then Tillie was kind of grungy and since she missed her weekend bath, we decided to go ahead and wash her. She hates the actual bath process but really enjoys being squeaky clean afterwards. She is sitting beside me right now, licking her paws and making sure they are immaculate.

I am eating toast for dinner. It's what I've eaten for the past 2 days. It's the only thing that really sounds good to me when I have a headache.

Bed rest


I woke up this morning with a migraine that kept me in bed literally all day. I am just now starting to feel better. Andrew went to work this evening and left me by myself but my mom came and spent some time with me and made me soup and took care of me. And this is the face that stayed by my side all day and kept me company. She's a sweetheart, isn't she?

My mom is making me go back to the doctor about my headaches and she wants me to go see a neurologist as well. It's kind of scary but I'll do anything to make these headaches stop. I feel like I just wasted an entire day of my life, not to mention my weekend. And I'd like the whole throwing up thing to go away as well.

Friday the 13th



My Friday the 13th has been pretty scary -- I've been stuck with a headache that started out as a mild annoyance this morning and 3 Cokes, 2 Tylenol Extra Strength, and 2 Excedine Migraines later, has not deviated from its plan to completely ruin my Friday night. I have spent the evening laying in bed, holding my head to prevent it from splitting open and I am not pleased about it.

On a happier note, I have become addicted to printing valentines off of the Internet. I don't know how this really happened but I can't seem to pass a single one up. And now we have all these valentines and no real use for them. But aren't they cute?
