Well, I made it through another migraine. Boy, they really stink. I was trying to explain at work this week that although I had managed to get out of bed, get dressed and come in, I couldn't actually *do* any complicated thinking. It's really hard to explain, even when you're not right in the middle of it, and of course especially hard for someone who doesn't have migraines to understand. This one was my usual one day of pain (tbtg), but preceded by unusually long (several days) and severe pre-symptoms: fogginess, lack of focus (visual and other), sensitivity to light and sound, major difficulty reasoning. ugh.
One of the hard thing about these headaches to me is that they put me out of commission. Being productive is pretty much impossible. But I can't just take off X days a month either. I feel like I risk being percieved as a sloth if I don't go to work, and as a blithering idiot if I do.
hmph.
Well, at least the kitties have their jobs down really well, and have taken good purry care of me the last couple of afternoons, when I came home after work beat my behind. Kitty kisses and snuggles are the best.
In other news (this will surprise you) I've had a hard time writing here. I knew it would be a challenge, but I thought I'd be able to whip off a short note weekly, whatever. I guess it's hard to pick a topic. The interesting ones still seem too personal to share out in the ether. That is, some things I just really don't want to speak out loud anywhere, other things just seem too self-focused to be anything other than egotistical pollution of the web. I do realize that other bloggers' personal stories have been meaningful to me. Just can't seem to keep that 'share' toggle on.
