hypochondriac

So, my eyeballs hurt today. After a while, my whole head ached, down to my teeth. It made me very unhappy to look at a computer screen. Slight nausea also accompanied the headache. Still, I went about my business and managed to work, come home and cook dinner for me and T, and then go back to campus for the hip-hop show. But after I got back home and in my jammies, I got a bloody nose. For a few minutes, I was convinced I had a brain tumor. I'm sure it's just a stress headache and the bloody nose is from the 29% humidity we're currently enjoying. But still, it's disconcerting.

Sounds like a possible sinus infection. Do the netti pot for a few days.

I am such a case that I am not at work today because everyone is either puking or caring for puking kids - and I would rather DIE than puke. Seriously. I am taking a personal day tomorrow. So you are not a freak.

Thanks, Jess. I am a bit better today.

Jessica: I think the two are unrelated. It's DRY here and I do get bloody noses in the winter sometimes. The headache wasn't sinus-y, and seems to be better now that I put in new contacts. Sorry to hear you had puking kids. That's horrible.
