I woke up about 45 minutes before my alarm went off with my head in pounding pain of the headache from last night. It was awful, tear inducing and unstoppable.
I ended up taking meds, taking a hot shower, and seriously debated about calling into work and just not going in today.
However responsible me is loathed to call out. Especially when I had no idea when the next person would be in in my department. :S So even though I felt weak, and I was in pain enough to make me cry, and just wanted to curl up in bed.
I went.
And unfortunately had to stay, as even though I tried to switch shifts with my coworker, they refused for good reasons.
And I couldn't leave my work in a lurch if I left early too because we were already short staffed as it was this morning. *exhales*
But thankfully, work usually works it's magic to get rid of my headache, as I do a lot of cleaning which helps to relax my tense muscles and release the tension in my head. Plus a generous gift of a soda by a friend helped as well to get me through my work shift without incident.
