The Doctor comes and feels your pulse,
She frowns and shakes her head.
She says, "You need some medicine,And then it's off to bed!"
She tells you that you need to rest,Or you'll be very sick.
But if you do just as she says,You'll get well pretty quick!
You may not have an appetite,Your throat or tummy's sore,
But when you're feeling better,You'll get sweets and treats galore!
The Doctor says to feed you thingsLike jello and ice cream...
"Hey, Mom, I could get used to this,The menu is a dream!"
i am sick. not my normal everyday sick. but like sick. yucky sick. it started out earlier as a headache. a freakin goddamn head pounding can't move fast headache.
at work.
so then im like okay and go around and finally scrounge some motrin from someone. it takes the edge off. i finish all of my duties. and it's coming around afternoon when my individuals are gonna show up (BEEP, kim? your 3:00 is here.......BEEP, kim? your 4:00 is here and so it goes until 7 when we have group.) so before all that begins i take my lunch. turkey bacon melt from farmer boys. then, that horrible awful nausea kicks in.
i am also seeing spots. call my supervisor, she says you have a migraine. i said no, i don't get migraines, as im grabbing the wall because i'm seeing spots and ready to hurl right at her feet at that very moment.
you are going home. but but i have this and this. you're going home. and your not driving. so my boss (yeah yeah the one i talked shit about) drives me home. (that's way better by the way, we talked and i got to tell her that she really is pissing me off and she tells me she may file for a divorce so our circling each other and snarling has ended and we are friends again)
she asks for my roommates number just in case. then she CALLS him. im taking kimberly home, she is sick. if she gets worse take her to the hospital. he rushes home. GOOD LORD IT'S ONLY A MIGRAINE? OR IS IT. i don't get migraines.
he goes and buys me some ARIZONA southern style sweet tea cause that's the only thing i want and exedrine migraine medicine. headaches gone. nausea is still here. little pit of pain in my gut also. but i think i will live.
thank god for sick pay.

Mygawd, Kim, that's terrible. I'm sure the pain in your gut is from the head pain. The two go together. It sounds like a migraine to me and though you've never had one before, there's always a first time. sucks to say that.

Take care of yourself and feel better fast!!!

Yep it's a Migraine. I get those spots in my eyes, then a massive headache. Sometimes nausia, sometimes not. I finally got some migraine meds' and they help a lot. I find with the allergy season, comes these headaches, I think it's all this pressure in the air. Anyway, take care of yourself. OH BTW- they are called "Optical Migraines". Fun huh?

Feel better, Kimberly.

My head aches were getting so frequent, I had to name them. They each live in different parts of my head like room mates.

Drink plenty of water! It's amazing how much this one simple thing can help. Seriously.

All of a sudden I discover that both Black Dog and Dusty link to your blog. Have I missed it the entire time?

Nope I just linked to her about 2 weeks ago because she was the only one who dug the GG Allin video that everybody else hated.

There has been a horrible flu bug going around, I was sick with it for a month. I hope you get better.
