But last night, I got really sick. I’m sure the beer I had with dinner didn’t help much. My headache turned into a full on migraine, with extreme pressure behind my eyes, causing them to be bloodshot red.
Daniel offered me some Fruit Snacks, and for some reason we all agreed it might help with the pain. I ate 3 of them… loudly exclaimed UH-OH, and ran for the bathroom. Except I didn’t run, I stumbled, and fell, and Johnny ended up carrying me to the bathroom where I projectile vomited dinner.
Sue had recommended I drink some coffee – I asked David first if it might interfere with the measurements. I was pretty desperate at this point because I couldn’t take any medication to help the pain. I made myself a cup of coffee and sat in the kitchen in the dark as David searched for Tylenol. Time: 3:15am. Finally he found the only 2 tylenols on the mountain and I put my head down on the kitchen counter. 10 minutes late I had an extreme urge to pee… which turned out to be the 3rd theme of the night behind headache and insomnia. I finally went upstairs with an extra cup of green tea and laid down for 10 more min before having to go again. It was a rough night.
Waking up this morning felt ok, but as you can see in the pic below… not much better. Long day ahead of us!
