Well, it's ending. My marriage, that is. And it's a shame because I kind of liked it. She seems pretty set on this being it though. I think she has hung on longer than she probably should have, frankly, but I really hate to see her go. I think we'll try to still be friends. She doesn't hate me, but there are just big things...

Finals. Ugh.
I'm so not prepared for finals this semester. And to think, I was so well-intentioned. I think it has mostly been my wife working overnights and me working on Thursdays and Fridays that have really cooked it for me.
I missed a lot of Contracts classes because of having to shuffle back and forth with my wife (we've only had one car for...

My internet crashed, and not that it's back up, I can't get back into chat. Fucking great. I guess that's the universe telling me to get to work.

It's true. Two jobs plus a wife and kids and, oh yeah, there's that law school thing too. Kind of sucks.

That's interesting.
I should move to a tropical territory.
But they'd think I'm a vampire and the villagers would storm my dark hidey hole.

So, I went to the doctor today, and my blood pressure was through the roof! Not pain through the roof, scary through the roof. So, they couldn't put me on any migraine meds because of that. So, I'm on high dose ibuprofen and tons of water until one of the two breaks.

OH! Blood pressure.
Beta blockers could help you. Talk to them about Propanolol.

I might have to do that. The high dose ibuprofen really helped right away, but now I'm getting headaches intermittently. 800mg kills them right away, but that's only good temporarily. I think stress may finally be getting to me. 
This headache has become pretty unbearable while I was asleep. Going to the dr in the morning. 
Aaaand, it came back. I took a nap in a dark room and it's back to where it was before. It seems like it's the computer screen that is causing it. I can't get around that right now though because it's finals season for the next month.

It could absolutely be a new prescription.
josh1154:
I hope that's not it. I need that prescription to live.
Ugh.. What does a migraine feel like?
I have had the same headache for three days now. It hurt so much last night that it woke me up a couple of times. I've tried to nap off and on today to pass the time, but I'm having trouble sleeping. Wearing my sunglasses helps. A hot towel over my eyes helped a little last night. An...

I used to get shots of demoral and phenergan to abort my migraines at Patient First. At this point you do not need preventative medication.
josh1154:
Thanks for all of the advice, guys. It's mostly gone at this point. I can still kind of feel it, but it's not really pain. I started to wonder last night if it might be tension related because I had this crazy urge to pop my neck (which I never have). Good advice on the NSAIDs. I probably overused them. I took an antianxiety drug as well, and that seemed to lessen it a little. I'm in the midst of law school finals right now, so there's certainly plenty of reason that I may have stress, etc.
I'm trying to avoid writing a paper here, folks. Distract me!
blk_dynamite:
How's the paper coming along? BOOM! /Late distraction
josh1154:
Haha!! Already turned in. Now I have nothing to do. Distract away.
Joined and/or applied to a lot of groups today. My feed seems to be empty a lot lately, so the thought is that this will increase it. We'll see what happens.

Hi there. How's it going? 
I had another great job interview today. I'm kind of hoping they don't all go like this, because I have no idea how well I"m doing. Both interviews have made me feel like I'm doing great, but that could all be smoke and mirrors.
I think I like this second place a little better. It's a little more professional, and the offices are much nicer....
