Awake, by the gods!
Am doing laundry. Figured it was a shame to waste a good wakefulness.
Am also in the very desultory process of rearranging the room... again. Ideally, both of my computers will be on the same desk, so I'll have a chance of working on Neo a little more. (Heh. Having now seen Reloaded, I think that Neo will be the name of most of my Linux computers...)
Reading the digests for the past couple days. Keeping caught up with the List is difficult, but rewarding.
Joy: learning that tyramine is a migraine trigger, and eating bittersweet chocolate chips, I get the twinges of icepickstab in my head... partly, I suppose, lack of sleep; not entirely dehydration, as I've been drinking water constantly...
I suppose that I get headaches often enough and mild enough that I ignore them. Gods know I had them in high school often enough to be able to vividly describe -- stabbing sensation directly behind my right eye, shooting down to my tooth... Oddly, some of them seemed to come from the very spotty link with my fiancée... if I was shielded and she was trying to touch me, I'd get a headache...

The details of migraine seem to be varied and a bit personal. One-sided stabbing, especially right behind an eye, is highly indicative of migraine, though. Some litterature insists on problems with vision; disregard that. I've had those only on three or four occasions, and I have attacks on a regular basis. As for triggers, they can be fast-acting or delayed. Fast-acting seems more usual.
Not that it is any consolation while the big M hits, but it is reputed that migraine is an intelligent person's disease.
I've never been able to get shielded when there was even a hint of migraine on the horizon.
