I had a shitty day and I have a migraine

and my health insurance doesn't kick in till March 1. The meds are too expensive to buy out of pocket, except for vicodin, which will end up making me nauseous and not get rid of the migraine.

2. Been there....have you tried Excedrin Migraine and

ice on your neck and covering your eyes.

When I didn't have the funds to buy good meds these are things I did, as well as just staying still and quiet.

As an aside...they are working on my apartment building (rewiring the electrical system), I so hope I don't get a migraine while they are doing this.

3. A cup of Strong black coffee, and 2 caplets benedryl for sinus headache,

and get into bed.
It has worked for me in the past.
(Take the cup of coffee and the antihistamine together)
So sorry you have a migraine, I know they can be enough to make one wish for death.

Shitty day here, too.

I just got back into town from my brother's wedding, and go into work at my temp job, only to find the assignment is finished early, and NO ONE BOTHERED to call me and tell me about this!

Not that I give a shit, actually. the job was boring my ass off, and I have now earned more than six times my weekly benefit rate for unemployment, and so now my greedy fuckhead bastard ex-employer (Cingular Wireless) can no longer block me from getting unemploymet benefits.

Well, fuck you, cingular Wireless, you can't stop me from getting benefits anymore you greedy, heartless selfish bastrds! fire ME a week before Christmas and leave me pennisless so that MY Christmas dinner wound up consisting of peanut butter toast and Ramen Soup, will you? Fine. I survived...in spite of your best fucking efforts to kill me!! Fuck you, cingular Wireless!
