Rare Ordinary Thoughts

Yesterday, I woke up at 4am with a very painful headache. It seemed like my head could break any moment that I almost fainted as I really felt so dizzied and in pain. The toddler was in between me and the dad so I didn’t bother waking up swithart; instead, I just stood up, managed to get a couple caplets of Tylenol 650mg and took it. Then I went back to bed, tried to go back to sleep, though very hard, because the doze of medicine didn’t take effect right away. A couple minutes after, I dared stood up, ran to the bathroom because I felt like passing out, and true enough, I wasn’t able to control it, I did pass out in the bathroom, and still had a very painful headache after that. Back to bed, I tried so hard to close my eyes and relax, until I was able to sleep.

My bedmates got up at 8:30am and then I told swithart I’ll have to stay in bed for a while because I got a headache and the two of them gave me a good massage which I was grateful for. Then they let me overslept and overtayed in bed, until 10am when swithart called me to ask if I might want to watch the Obama inauguration on TV and yes, it’s all what I did for the entire morning: layed on the couch, had a glass of hot chocolait and a couple pieces of suman all the way from Mama in Philippines which SIL brought home. I have had a good day of break yesterday. My headache was so intense that the doze of Tylenol I took only helped a bit. I don’t know what caused it because it’s not my monthly period schedule yet, but I think it’s because of the sweating I have had last Monday when I returned to hula hooping via Wii Fit. Because of my headache, I was able to stay off from the online world the whole day. I was on TV the whole time, but mostly, I was just listening to the audio.

Right now, I am feeling 90% relief from that very severe headache. If only I am in Philippines right now, I would be proceeding to the nearest clinic where I could undergo a CT-scan to check if I am alright. I am fine now, but swithart still suggests to continue taking a break from the pc. I will later, as soon as I am done with what I’m supposed to do ’round here. Meanwhile, thanks to all who dropped by and I’ll try to do my dropping later to pay each of you back!
