Keep Smiling!

(Geez, I'm starting to sound like Antycat.)
After cutting the grass and having my Ramen Noodles for lunch, I started feeling worse and worse. I had woken up with a headache, but had taken Excedrin for it ... no worries.
But then, headache city. Pain. Much pain. I took some sudafed and Excedrin Migraine. Let me try and remember how this proceeded....

Then I broke down and took my prescription migraine drugs. More intense pain. Took a nap. Woke up, let the dogs out (it was 100 degrees, no way I was leaving them outside), took another nap. Fixed some mac-n-cheese, one of the other final ingredients in the cupboard, because I KNEW there was no way I was going to make it to the grocery store ... but needed to eat something with all of the drugs I was ingesting. At this point, much nausea and a cold sweat is accompanying the head that feels like someone is squeezing it in a vice. I ate some of the mac-n-cheese (macaroni... hmm... maybe yankee doodle had a migraine? ) and still felt like crap. Got out my secret stash of Hydrocodone (codeine) for just such an emergency, and popped a pill. Fed the critters and went back to bed. Two or three hours later, STILL felt like crap and head was still 5 sizes too large and being squeezed, so took some more codeine. Went back to bed.

So here we are ... about 12:30am, I've slept about 10 hours so far today (yesterday?) my head still feels ... not right, I still feel nauseous and shakey. Time to go back to bed.

(Usually when I have a migraine, I'm REALLY picky about what I want to eat ... my favorite thing to eat is Raisin Bran, but I have to pick out the raisins. Too sweet. But it cant be just plain Bran Flakes. I dont know why. That's how temperamental migraines are. And I usually have to eat the cereal dry, and one flake at a time .. piece by piece. So the macaroni-and-cheese REALLY didnt settle well. Ugh.)
