Today I’m recovering from the 2nd migraine of my life. It started just before Sky’s soccer game on Sunday as what I thought was a tension headache and I didn’t have time to take anything for it or we’d be late. It turned into this monster of brain pain that was so bad I couldn’t speak, or walk or see and I thought I might vomit. I didn’t see auras or flashing lights - the only warning was the “tension” pain. Once I got home Mario gave me sleep inducing medicine, closed all the windows in the bedroom and put me to bed with a hot washcloth press on my forehead. I just lay there - couldn’t move at all. It felt like someone had their hands wrapped around my brain and their fingers were squeezing right into it. Needless to say I was useless all day yesterday - it wasn’t as bad as the night before, but I couldn’t function very well and the hand of doom was still there holding my brain, just not as tightly. Today I feel groggy and there are traces of it. It’s like my head is heavier then usual and my neurons aren’t firing the way they’re supposed to. I don’t know how people go through life having migraines all the time. I was reading up on it and I guess what I feel today is a migraine hangover. It’s strange. I feel like it could go off again at any moment with my brain clenched in that fist.

The clock is stalling today. I keep working and time doesn’t move forward.

Then I get things like completely nonsensical email responses from my boss that I just don’t understand or know how to respond to. He’s SUCH a strange man.

My mother called me on Saturday and she broke down crying for no reason. I asked her what was wrong and she said she didn’t know. She’s smack in the midst of a depression and I’m worried for her. She was going to visit on Memorial Day, but it looks like I may go up there instead. I wish she would come here though - the break is what she needs even if she doesn’t see it.

Bleh - I wanna go home. I wonder if it’s a good idea or not to work out today.
