There is nothing worse than starting my day with a pounding behind my eyes and a sensitivity to light and noise. But, that is what I woke up to when my alarm went off at 5:15 this morning. Or yesterday morning, since it is technically tomorrow. Or today. Oh, crap, I don't know. Can you see what migraines do to me?
So as soon as I got the kids on the bus, I tried to go back to bed. I couldn't sleep. I didn't want to take the Excedrin on an empty stomach, so I got up to get something to eat. (Let me just say that I love the Excedrin Migraine medicine. It is the only thing that works when my head feels as bad as it did this morning.) I finally fell asleep when the medicine kicked in. I slept for a couple of hours, and when I woke up. my head was pounding again. After checking my email and updating my facebook status, (because let's face it...that is what is important people) I settled into my recliner with my blanket and a movie. (I watched My Sister's Keeper, which looking back was not a great choice, because the sobbing didn't help my headache at all...man, that was a sad movie) I also drank a bunch of diet Pepsi, instead of my normal sprite zero, because the caffeine usually helps my head. Eventually it did, but now I am paying for it, because I am wide awake, and it is 1am. I have to get Junior up for work in an hour and 15 minutes, so there really isn't any point to trying to sleep at this point. Maybe after I get him up I'll head to bed.
Hopefully I will be able to sleep.

Lydia ~ It took a while to fall asleep, but once I did, I was out. Then when the kids got on the bus, I laid back down and slept until almost noon. This just means it will be impossible for me to sleep tonight. It's a vicious cycle.
Miss Donna ~ I agree...and tonight is going to be another late one...I can feel it already.
I hate that cycle. Hope you can kick it and get some sleep tonight.
Thanks Vixen. It's 11:30 now and I am wide awake...at least I have the new Deadliest Catch episode to keep me company for a while.
