Karma – it will get you!
This is what I get for being unsympathetic about M and his headache yesterday. OMG – have I had the worst 12 – 18 hours of my life!
I know, for my migraines, to stay away from chocolate . . . although I find it VERY hard to do. And I have to admit, I will cheat and have a piece or two (or twenty) but I really do try to keep it out of the house and away from me.
So instead, I have found sizzling, hot cinnamon jelly beans. They’re not nearly as satisfying as chocolate, but they’re really good and I like them. And I have a big bag of them at home.
Also, I made Watergate salad over the weekend and put maraschino cherries on top.
Last night for dinner, I finished off the salad with some jelly beans for dessert – doesn’t that sound nice and healthy? Evidently, all that red dye did a number on my head.
And I mean A NUMBER. WOW!
I went to bed with a headache. Woke up in the middle of the night with a headache. And then woke up this morning with a headache.
Ugh.
At one point, I really thought I was going to be sick . . . and if you know me, you know I will fight that off FOREVER!!
And I was taking my heavy-duty medicine, drinking Coke and eating saltines for all I was worth. Finally, FINALLY about 9 am, I started feeling better.
I came into work this morning without my watch or any of my jewelry, without my name badge . . . I think I’m lucky I have shoes on.
M was feeling much better last night and I think he went to work this morning.
Memo to self: no more red dye. Anyone interested in a bag of jelly beans?
