Headache!

.

Oh, not a typical one.  Aspirin is cutting the pain, but just a touch.  If the brain could feel, I would liken this to a railroad spike having been driven from my upper left forehead to the top of my spinal column, crunching that column just a bit, with all the gentleness of expression that a jackhammer can exhibit.  On the good side, I am nauseous too.  Wait, did I say good side?  Never mind.  I could not sleep.  There wasn't a good angle, or a way.  Sometimes I can sleep my way out of it, sometimes I just delay the sense of it.  These are usually rather rare, but two in a row makes me nervous.  At least I have been being good with the girls.  Yeah, that is more important than how I feel.  Feeding and petting, chasing around just a little bit, and running in "terror" from their ferociousness.  They have been giving me extra niceness, knowing that poppo hurts I think.  They just know.

I may be able to get to bed shortly.  A second dose of aspirin went down the hatch.  While it doesn't look like it will fix it, it might buy me the time I need to settle in.  I may have to call tomorrow off.  I'll see when I wake.  If so, I will send an email letting them know that I am simply in no shape to help.  It is good to know why, not just not show up for things.  While it is still a sort of demerit, it isn't as bad as being MIA.  They know I am at triage.  Even if a homebound one.  Yeah, if I wake early enough, I really need to set up medical again.

Hey, it's good.  I have people that love me, people that like me, people that don't one, and people that don't either.  Oddly, that is comforting.  Funny thing, sometimes all of those are the same person!  I love that, I really do.  Until it's my turn?  Heh.  All good.  Be well.  Enjoy your day, more so if it is pain free.  Crunch some numbers, arrange some flowers, smile at someone, tell a good joke, and be pleased if you are doing what you can do.  Even in great pain I have been... enjoying my little life.  Youch though. 

Good morning, and again good night.
