Oh no...
I'm in the midst of another migraine. I know that many people, including a couple of you all, get migraines pretty regularly. That sucks and I shouldn't complain much about mine. I just want to remark that for me to have two in about a week is quite abnormal and a bit scary. Like I've said before, the last time this happened, I ended up with migraines off and on for almost three years. Right before I came to DC, they disappeared (just as mysteriously as they appeared), so I can't tell you what triggered them. This time around it's clear to me that hormones and stress play a huge part.
In related news, I've been sick the last couple days and was completely unproductive tonight. It doesn't help that in addition to work related pressures and a buttload of other items, the next week and a half will determine whether/how quickly/how well I can graduate (aka: I have to pitch my thesis. I've settled on car culture in DC, which includes traffic, driving and the metro). After the week of hell, I go to South Dakota from the 8th through the 16th for no sleeping filming. I'll be soooo happy when I'm done traveling. It's obvious to me now that freelance film work (particularly the kind where you have to travel) is not something I'd be interested in for my career. See the world, sure, but if you can't relax then it's not as fun.
I don't want to go into more detail about this stuff, so I guess there's only one thing left to do: buck up and try to remember to breathe. Here is where I surprise myself with how much I can do without collapsing! Shit, it's 3:15 now and I have to go to bed. Whoops!
