the_rckI'm fighting a migraine today. I had it all day yesterday. I took Amerge twice and naproxen and Tylenol at different times. I also showered and applied cold packs. The cold helped most. Pressure on specific parts of my neck and skull helped, too.
I took extra halcion when I went to bed, and I slept pretty solidly for ten hours. I still had the headache when I woke, though. It's not quite as bad today, but it's not good. I also slept okay Sunday night into Monday morning, not great but not horribly.
Food and caffeine haven't reliably helped. I still feel like my brain is bashing itself against the inside of my skull, trying to get out.
Cordelia and I ordered delivery from Red Robin this evening because I hoped that a burger would help. It did help for about forty five minutes. Sadly, it's not a thing I can repeat at that sort of interval.
I'm about three quarters of the way to the minimum word count for one of my exchange stories. I'm fighting with it because parts of it want to be in present tense and others in past. I also don't have a plot yet. I would really like to write more today, but I don't think this migraine will help me along at all.
I'm thinking to sign up for the WIP Big Bang. I've narrowed it down to four options. All of them seem possible but also have down sides. I'm pretty sure which of the four would win the poll here if I made one, but it's the one that would be the most difficult to complete. Having narrowed things down to four options is an achievement since the list started with twenty WIP that I was confident would run longer than the 7500 word minimum.
I'm also considering Into a Bar, but I don't know that I have the mental energy to commit to anything of the sort. I still have an incomplete assignment from a previous year of the challenge. Maybe I'll just see if I can write that by the deadline.
