Motherfucking SHIT.

Owwww...
Iean sicky...

Last night, while trying to "activate" ( :D ) my copy of Windows Vista, I noticed a pain in the more forward end of my head. I brushed it aside, and just continued working.
Roughly ten minutes later, I was laying in the fetal position on the couch with the most intense migraine I've ever had.
There aren't many things that can incapacitate me. No soccer injury or heavy fall has ever put me out... even after making a 3/4 inch deep, 1 inch wide gaping wound in my leg tearing all the way down to reveal the muscle and bone couldn't put me out.
But migraines? Sweet Jelly Belly Jesus, I GIVE UP.

I can only remember having one quite this bad before, about 3 months ago. I woke up with it that time, and nearly screamed. That time, I spent about 6 hours alternating between the couch, trying not to scream, and that fun elevated position over the toilet seat, puking over and over and over and over...

This time, I learned from my mistakes. While I may have been in the most intense pain I can imagine, I knew if I moved, my stomach would take revenge. And so, I laid perfectly still, and controlled my breathing... even breathing to hard would've sent me right to the bathroom. My mother kept ice on my forehead and 10 billion blankets on my body... she's a saint. After she gave me about 5 Advil that did absolutely nothing, my father got home and immediately saw what was going on and gave me some valium. I guess it works for migraines... my sister has chronic ones. Thank god for having a father as a doctor!

Either way, the valium kicked in after a while and I finally fell into a very hectic sleep... my mom moved me upstairs at some point, and the next thing I know it's 9:45 this morning.
Head still throbs, but just barely. But I most definitely have the nasty flu.

I have no immune system, it's true. I get minor head colds all the time. But I hate being more than minorly sick! It sucks!

At least I don't have (as much) of the guilty feeling of "You're just being bitchy. Go to school."
I'm going to take a leap of faith and say "if you were in enough pain you don't remember it, you're sick enough to stay home".
Woo...

Now, I just need to find something to do...
-bleeeeeeeeeeeeech
screw you guys i'm goin' home
