Been dealing with a slight headache today.
First it was behind my eyes and is probably just a sleep deprivation headache as it usually gets better whenever I rest my eyes for a bit...and would probably entirely go away if I would actually get more sleep.
Though it's moved towards the back of my head towards my neck so I'm guessing I've tensed myself out again and therefore...need to relax and maybe drink more water. 

Basically woke up with the headache I went to bed with last night. So that wasn't fun at all. *exhales*
It got worse when I put in my contacts. The ache behind my right eye got stronger.
Tylenol didn't help.
So I ended up taking an Excedrin and using some PastTense Essential Oils on my neck to try and get the muscles to relaxed.
It helped as the headache faded within the hour. So yay. 

Ended up with a headache this afternoon. I think mostly from multitasking between my computer and trying to read a book. So mostly my own doing there. But at least I finished the book and got most of the multi-tasking done. ^^;; Hopefully sleep helps it to go away. 

Ended up with a slight headache behind/above the eyes today, I think mostly from exhaustion as I didn't get enough restful sleep and had alot of down time where I was trying to stay busy. But a little bit of rest and a bigger dinner that was more filling seems to have made it go away, though I probably need to go to bed a little earlier tonight to make sure I get enough sleep. 

Ended up with a headache this evening behind my right eye.
I think it's more from lack of sleep as my mind was more awake last night so I didn't get enough rest. So the headache is probably from the start of that, but also probably still from tension. *exhales* Yay tension in the neck. Idk what I'll do if my muscles ever fully relax. 

Ended up with a headache today, I think from tension in my neck. As I spent a good portion of the afternoon working on my tank and I think my muscles tensed up after that. But also got irritated with coworkers, customers, among others because a bunch of people needed my attention at once and that usually stresses me out especially when I can't exactly help some of the situations. *exhales* But hopefully just chilling tonight will help it go away. 

I couldn't believe it. How relaxed it all was. I was so used to the tension in the house, that the fact that my new roommates weren't only willing to sit and chat, but also watch a movie and just hang out...was weird. But a good weird. How could I not have not realized how bad things were getting in the house before? With this....this new dynamic...I may actually want to be more social than I have been. 

-Inspiration from a movie night.

"I found this for you." She whispered, pushing a smooth flat rock in my palm. "It spoke to me, saying it was for you."
I blink, taken a bit aback. "Oh...uh...Thank you?" I said uncertainly as I flipped the stone over in my hands. It was cool to the touch, yet at the same time, I could feel it getting warmer the longer I held it. It felt...comforting. Like home. I'd never felt that from a rock. 
She smiled, nodding like she knew my thoughts. "It's for you." She repeated before vanishing back inside her little shop. 

-Inspiration from being given a gift from a friend.

I sagged down in my seat, trying and failing to appear unaffected by the heat. 
But I was positively melting. It was too hot. Far too hot.
Even here in the shade I couldn't get comfortable. 
And yet, everyone around me seemed perfectly content to just sit there, chilling, like it wasn't a blazing hundred degrees out here.
I took a breath, hating how it seemed to dry out my throat.
No. No I couldn't take this anymore. 
In a flash I was up out of my seat, heading indoors. 
To where it was gloriously cool. To where I could feel comfortable again. 

-Inspiration from hanging outside

Ended up with a headache behind my right eye after work today.
I think I just ended up getting worn out, tired, and probably had some mental stress too catch up with me or something.
Sleep probably will help it. Hopefully. But I'm stubbornly refusing that right now.
Some things do seem to help relieve it a bit though. A bit of Mountain Dew, some Food....a little heat. Probably should go take a Tylenol or something.....

Woke up with a headache today.
Which is frustrating.
Like why in the world do I always wake up with headaches on my day off? Not. Fair.

It stuck around for basically the entire day too. A faint ache behind the eye. 
From stress? From too much sleep? From tension? Who knows.
But it did make it difficult to want to do anything productive today. 

It was on the news. Everywhere he looked, there it was. His picture. His name. 
A roaring sounded in his ears as he struggled to breathe. To comprehend.
That his secret identity was out....but not only that....now the whole city thought he was a villain. 
The day couldn't get any worse....right?

-Inspiration from seeing Spiderman

Ended up with a headache behind my right eye today because I ended up letting stress of work get to me.
It was a silly stressor too. Like the fact that the manager couldn't answer a question for me immediately shouldn't have irritated me to the point of causing a headache, but today it did, because I was trying to do a bunch of things at once and had a limited time frame and he was delaying my ability to get the thing done. *exhales*

Headache has persisted throughout the day because of that.
Took a nap and it helped slightly, took a shower, it helped slightly. Made a real meal instead of snacking and that helped slightly....
At this point, it's basically just chipping away, doing little things like drinking more water and taking out my contacts where I hope that things will get better and the headache will fade away. 

Have had a slight headache throughout most of the day today at work. I think it's mostly from tension as I came in a couple hours later than I usually do which meant left a couple hours later than I usually do and had to deal with customers longer than I usually do and yah.....
Slight headache. But thankfully it's nothing too crazy. I think some sleep will help it. 

Ended up with a slight headache this evening.
I think just from the stress of trying to get everything done and sitting hunched and not eating a lot of food. 
So yah.
Hopefully some rest will help it to fade away. 

I was right in the migraine lasting throughout the night.
Thankfully it wasn't a major migraine. It was one that while persistent didn't leave me suffering as badly as previous migraines had. So that was a bonus.
Still didn't feel well enough to get out of bed until around noon though because the migraine persisted and persisted and persisted. 
Honestly it was on the fringes throughout the entire day and would flare up only to be soothed back down with some meds and a heat pack. 

Ended up with a migraine, despite my best attempts to avoid it, today because stressor upon stressor upon stressor kept getting flung my way. Stress at work with coworkers not properly isolating animals and constantly asking me question after question after question. 
Then came the stress of family asking me questions that made me feel stressed because I could sense their stress.
Then came the heat of it being super hot outside.
And the stress of trying to find a specific food item but failing to find it in multiple stores.....

So yah.
Not surprised I ended up with a migraine.
Tried to head it off with sleep -because I was tired---and meds and heat....
But nothing. 

*exhales* This migraine will probably stick with me through the night. 

I cursed, slamming on the brakes, my hand pressing down hard on the horn as the minivan suddenly merged in front of me, nearly hitting the front of my car. I swerved trying to avoid getting hit, only to have to jerk back so as not to be creamed by the semi tanker driving right beside me.
A few tense seconds and enough distance had separated between me and the other vehicles on the road for me to be able to move my foot back to the gas to get back up to speed before the car coming up behind me could catch up.
So close.
I swallowed, glaring at the minivan in front of me, totally clueless of the accident they could have caused because they hadn't taken the time to look in their blind spot before merging. 

-Inspiration from nearly getting hit by a car while driving home. 

Ended up with a slight headache today, just from the stress of over thinking and making things more of an issue than they probably should be.
Didn't help that I drove up north in Rush Hour Traffic either as that drive usually tenses up the muscles in my neck making it easy for a headache to wind it's way up behind my right eye.

Thankfully a bit of time with a heatpack has helped it to fade away.

Apparently we haven't replaced all the broken radio cords....or else one of the ones we have replaced has now gone on the fritz...because today at work, my manager had a bad radio cord.
So I was hearing this soft popping/knocking noise like someone was bumping into something or knocking on something and gaaaaah the noise was getting on my nerves. 
Getting enough on my nerves that I was getting a headache behind my right eye because the muscles in my shoulder and neck were tensing up.

So I took action. 
And had my manager replace his cord, which thankfully stopped the knocking over the radios in my ear. 
I then went and grabbed an Excedrin so I could head off the headache and keep it from getting worse. 
Which seems to have worked. 
So yay! :D

Brain: *comes up with a dozen new story ideas to write while I'm at work*

Me: That would be fun...but we should probably focus on the story we're currently working on.

Brain: But we can totally write these all in one day! It will be simple.
Me: Looks at my long list of WIPs. Uh Huh...sure......

Ended up with a slight headache this afternoon after taking a quick nap.
So probably either a) tensed myself up while sleeping or b) slept the wrong amount.
Who knows.
It's been a stressful couple of days....so I'm guessing tension is more of the cause of this particular headache.
Thankfully it's been nothing major. So yay that. 

My fingers tapped the steering wheel as again, I edged my car slightly to the left so that I could peer up the road, quietly gauging if I would have enough room to bypass the camper going ten below the speed limit six cars in front of me.
I frown, edging back into the center of the lane.
I hated single lane roads.
There wasn't enough space to pass before oncoming cars would appear. No the line was too long. For now...a chewed the bottom of my lip. For now I would have to bide my time until either the camper turned off...or we finally reached a two lane road. 

The sizzling of grease in the frying pan was a constant background noise as I grabbed another vegetable...some sort of onion maybe? That I'd been handed and told to 'chop as fine as I can'
Chewing the inside of my lip, I continued slicing through the 'onion' trying to find the right rhythm as well as the right size that my Aunt preferred. 
It was peaceful.
Learning to make old family recipes wasn't something that I got to do often so to have the chance now...was nice.
It was all nice. 

Woke up with the headache that I went to bed with. Which was rather frustrating. But a bit of Excedrin and a heat pack on my tense shoulders help the headache to fade away. 

Ended up with a slight headache today that got a bit worse as the evening progressed.
Pretty sure it started just from the stress of traveling.
As traveling for longer periods of time usually tenses me up a bit. 
So it's not surprising I ended up with one.
Fought to keep it at bay.
But it persisted for most of the evening, getting worse and better and worse again. 

I pulled my knees up to my chest, shivering a little in the cool night breeze as the first of the fireworks exploded in the sky.
All around my couples snuggled closer together, pulling blankets around them and resting their heads on each others shoulders. 
It was cute. For them. 
Maybe one of these years I would have someone to cuddle with too.
Maybe.

Me: I should write this awesome scene once I get home.

*gets home*

Me: How about I do all these cleaning things instead!!

Brain: …… but.....writing?

Note to self.
Switch out to new contacts tomorrow.
As I'm wondering if the headaches behind the right eye are caused by the particular lens I'm wearing currently.
Like, why else would I have a headache appear only after I put in my contacts for the day?
It's suspicious.
And annoying to have to deal with a headache first thing.
Because if it's not the contacts....then I'm sleeping tense...or something.
