I started getting the headache last night at about 4 PM. It got worse. I took some Tylenol, didn't really help, now I can't take anything for hours.
I went to bed. The pain got worse. I took some magnesium citrate, I haven't taken it in about a week so I know I needed some magnesium. It did help some for a while, then the headache came roaring back.
I didn't sleep well. I woke up around 4 AM, the time for my alarm, and began vomiting. I didn't know Ron was awake, but he heard me. It wasn't just once, either. I was down to vomiting bile. I felt and sounded pathetic.
Ron decided, on his own, to cancel work, which involved a lot of fast talk with the other vendor. I threw up again.
When I get sick, I get sick in a 3 gallon bucket. It is very effective. I don't like to kneel down over a toilet when I'm getting sick, assuming I even make it to the toilet.
Anyway, pretty sad scene, Ron rolls in big hero. I curl up in a ball for hours. I haven't puked in a while so I drank some Powerade, it stayed down. Yay Powerade. I drank that off when I woke up, I'd have a few sips and go back to sleep.
I got up around 4. The headache was fading, so only a one day migraine. I got "lucky" this time.
I went in Ron's room to ask about a trip for tomorrow and he was utterly drunk. I asked for one thing, a trip to the taqueria, 2 to 2:45, tomorrow. When I checked with him just now he said he didn't understand what I wanted. He was very, very, drunk. Overall, though, he was pretty quiet.
Once my head felt better I ate some quinoa. I wanted something sweet after that so I ate some watermelon (I had bought it already cut up). The watermelon was not optimal but good enough. Then I cleaned the litter boxes. I had needed to do that for a little bit and had planned to do it last night - until the migraine. The cats were understanding and used it anyway.
Ron is still totally drunk, swimming in a soft sea of ethanol. [sigh] I guess it's too much to ask him to stay sober when I'm sick. He saw it as a day off and took advantage.
He kept offering to take me out to dinner, but I'm having a hard enough time with the quinoa. I'm not nauseous, but it isn't digesting quickly.
Ugh. I think I'll go back to bed.
