I suppose I should update this thing more often. I'm getting pretty terrible, and I don't think it has anything to do with being lazy. I'm just busy. And sometimes don't have much to say. But what I should really be doing is writing anyways. I'm sure I'd feel a lot better on those days where I just need to vent, even for the boring and mundane experiences we call "life". There are times, however, where I have lots to say, and sometimes some of those things shouldn't appear on such a public medium and therefore I keep my mouth shut. Once, I made an entry and then promptly deleted it, feeling better that I just wrote things down and reorganized my thoughts and emotions. I should do that more often. But not today. Today I have something to say.
In the spirit of the holiday season, I must give thanks...and a lot of them.....to two special people in my life who made my vacation exactly what I needed it to be. I didn't realize it at the time...I was just thankful of the opportunity to get away and enjoy your company over a fantastic feast that included the "stuffed" hens, pie, and booze. In copious amounts. But leaving this time was so much harder than the last for some reason, and I'm not sure why. I hated leaving. And there was still pie.
Otherwise, things are same old same old I guess. I'm looking forward to Christmas this year, despite working nights during the holidays. I can't wait to put up my tree with my new decorations while belting out Christmas carols. Yes, I'll be the first to admit I love Christmas carols....all the time......I wonder if I'll drive PRi nuts.
oh my hat.....I mean head
I went to bed last night with a migraine for some reason or another. Not an experience I would like to repeat, that's for sure. I've only ever had one other migraine in my life and I count myself lucky. I do get really bad headaches from time to time, usually because I've had my contacts in for too long, or I haven't slept. But the photosensitivity, nauseousness, and aversion to even the quiet hum of my computer is something I tried to cure last night.
All of a sudden it hit me like a ton of bricks. I could tell I was getting a headache from my contacts, so those came out shortly after I got home from the hockey game. No help. I took two extra strength Tylenol and two super strength Advil. No help. I slept for 11 hours. No help. I'm not sure what I need to do. I thought it might have been the Oilers game, but then I realized that I practically had season tickets for five years, and I rarely went home with a headache....except for the odd concert or two when there was so much smoke from pot that the fire alarms went off lol but I remember that I came home that night hungry ;)
So what am I doing about my headache? Nothing. I suppose it's my fault for not taking advantage of my day off and curling up in bed with a cup of tea and a good book. Instead I have laundry and dishes to do. And I have to get ready for the Christmas party tonight. I was looking forward to going, but with this headache, I'm not sure how much partying I will be doing. I think I'm going to go anyways (I'd hear about it for sure from a certain charge nurse if I wasn't there hahahaha), but I may leave early depending on how I feel. Drinky-drinky for Morgo? I'm not so sure with all these drugs in my system. We'll see. I think I'm going to pick up some Excedrin first.
