6:49 am

haven't gone to bed yet
my eyes are burning and my
head is pounding. this is the best
that i have felt in hours.
i can open my eyes.
at about 9 last night the regular
head ache pains gave way to
searing bolts that penetrated
my brain. phred came home
around 12:30 am to find me
crying on the couch. he quickly
rolled me a little dube and
massaged migra balm into my
head till the pressure let up.
now i just have a regular head ache,
the kind that lasts over 24 hours!
i feel absolutely wiped out.
i want to be held till i fall asleep,
i want to lay my head in someone's
lap while they stroke my hair listening to
them whisper soft words in my ear.
instead i think i'll wrapping myself in
my blanket and collapsing on the couch.
