For the most part I slept well last night. However, I briefly woke up at four o’clock in the morning, just in time to experience one of the worst headaches I ever had. I tried to ignore it for a while but it was just too painful. I forced myself out of bed, got some disgusting water from the Brita filter (can’t they filter out the bad taste?), swallowed two extra-strength Tylenol in one gulp without any fuss (and without chewing), got back in bed and contained my suffering for another forty-five minutes as I tried to fall back asleep.
Add an overwhelming since of nausea, any form of light is blinding, and any noise sounding as if you have your ear next to a huge speaker at a concert and that’s usually how my migraines feel. Headaches suck.
I second all of that.
