I've had some crazy headaches lately. My husband says it's stress because of the job search. I say it's because of the lack of sleep. Of course sometimes I like in bed awake, stressing. Those times, we both win. Especially because when that happens I usually turn toward my husband and ask, "ARE YOU ASLEEP?" 15 or 16 times until he answers me.
He can be a real jerk about COMMUNICATION sometimes. Usually when it's dark out.
ANYWAY, the other day I had a HORRIBLE headache and I turned to my husband and said, "It's a good thing I'm already married to you, otherwise I would marry Excedrine."
He laughed and asked, "Not Diet Coke?"
"I would marry Excedrine and Diet Coke could be my lesbian lover." I told him.
"Not Carmen?" he asked.
I looked at him deadly serious and said, "A world without Excedrine, Diet Coke and Carmen is a world I don't want to live in."
He just shook his head. Hopefully he added more AAA batteries to the bunker though.
Diet Coke is my side jawn but Large Americanos are my main thang.

I've been brewing tea with feverfew and kava to help with headaches lately, and it's made a difference. Also, valerian root tea keeps me from staying up all night stressing. There's been some pretty great research about feverfew and migraines. Just in case you wanna try something new. :)

I would marry green tea, cookies 'n cream ice cream, and popcorn with nacho cheese. I'd be all polygamous a la Big Love. tiramisu would be my lesbian lover. Rosie the vibrator can come too. apparently I'm also a bit of a food slut.
