This just evokes so many emotions (the least not being disgust):

I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day, I sure did. I love Valentines Day. I'll be posting pictures soon. I dont think I've even posted my Super Bowl pics yet which is sad. I'm way behind the times. I should have more free time for things like geeking out on livejournal now

And so the viral video lives on...I love that we're all disgusted, yet once I posted that, so did three other people in various locations online. OOOOH HANSON...

I admire you for doing your own taxes. My dad walked me through doing mine when I had my first job, but since I've gotten "real" jobs, he's given all my info to his accountant. (Thank god, I suck at numbers.)

Can I be nosy and ask about your headaches? I went to a neurologist about four years ago and spent at least a year trying all kinds of medications for migraine/tension headaches I get. In the last six months, I've found that above all, I think mine are stress-related. The bad ones, anyway, where I feel like I'm going to be sick. I got those all the time working at the newspaper, but maybe got one or two while working the TV gig - and once I drank water, I was fine.
I'm always curious because I'm still convinced, thankyoutoomuchGrey'sAnatomy, that I really have some sort of massive tumor or something that causes my headaches but isn't picked up on MRI's or CT scans...

turbotax.com is suuuuuper easy to file taxes. it's idiot proof. :)

[myfavoritestar]

agreed! Filing taxes online is way idiot-proof! If I can, ANYone can, truly.

[myfavoritestar]

Yeah, its gross, and yet loveable at the same time, lol.

I did my taxes at www.hrblock.com. Seriously, it is so easy. You could totally do them, I promise. I am not good with numbers, nor do I excel at any "real world" tasks (balancing checkbook etc) but I can do my taxes via their site.

Ohh my headaches. Where to begin? I have had them since I was like 9 years old. Sometimes (not often) they are true migraines, with the blurred vision and vomiting. Other times they are just migraine-strength pain. And, nearly every day, its just a dull ache at the least. I've had CT scans, allergy tests, my eyes checked, sleep studies etc etc. I dont know what it is. I do know that I only get 9 migraine pills a month and I could probably go thru that many in a day. *sigh*

I too have a hypochondriacal worry, but mine is that its an aneurysm :(

You sound like me - I've been through everything, including the ONLY thing that worked, an antidepressant that made me gain around 50 pounds, and still...headaches.
Can I ask what you currently take? I had a sample of Treximet (made by Imitrex) but I don't know how well it works. I mainly stick to Excedrine, and that seems to work just as well as any prescription, sadly.

[myfavoritestar]

I take Maxalt, which is also a form of Imitrex. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt. Sometimes if I take it with Motrin it helps a little more but I try not to do that very often. It's sad, because I have used up all my sick days on headaches. What a waste! Blah, headaches. What kind of Excedrine do you take? Have you ever tried the Migraine ones? I've taken those but they don't seem to work any better than normal.

[alabasterduch]

I take a double dose and it usually seems to do it.

Nothing is worse than a headache from a spinal tap - 1 in 10 people get a headache because the hole they make in your spine to take a fluid sample doesn't close...and of course, I was that 1 in 10. I was miserable for a week and the lengths the nurses went to to draw blood to clot the hole was almost worse than the headache itself.

YUCK. Let's get head transplants. lol...

[myfavoritestar]

yes, head transplants! Do we get to pick which heads we get? I want a pretty one! lol What a creepy thought...

Eep you poor thing. its amazing what our bodies can go through and still remain upright!
