You know how it all goes down. The pain that makes your eyes feel like they're getting wrenched out and squeezed at the same time. Actually, most of you probably don't. The sad fact is that most people don't know exactly what happens during a migraine. Well my friends, I'm here to tell you exactly how a migraine goes down. There are a couple of different kinds of migraines actually: some people actually get them upwards of 15-20 times a month! That thought of that much pain makes me want to vomit incessantly. Most migraines start out with these weird little visual accouterments, if you will. They're kind of like little kaleidoscopic elements that randomly appear in your visual field. They start out small and gradually widen out to take up your whole visual field. Then the horrible pain sets in. It'll last for a few hours; slowly draining the life out of you. Then it'll slowly grant you a reprieve and you can remember where your will to live went. Not a fun process, but I can say, once you've been through a migraine, what else could possibly trigger such happiness once it's done?
So surgery tomorrow, huh? That's a bit on the intimidating side. You guys all need to get on board with my physical and email addresses here in Baltimore. The physical address goes as such:
David Sommer
Best Western, Rm. 717
5925 O'Donnell St.
Baltimore, MD 21224
My email address is onceagainandagain@gmail.com. Hey! No funny stuff either. Ok well maybe just a little bit. Funny stuff makes me laugh, and laughter's good, right?
Today I went to grab my car from Philly. I was only there for a brief time, but I got to see a whole bunch of my old (old? I thought they were new?!?) friends. It just so happens that I really like all those guys; maybe even more than I realized before. I’m kind of pissed off at my self, though, because I forgot to bring my camera. There were plenty of fantastic opportunities for tantalizing pictures that I missed. Unfortunately, it’s just not something that one thinks of doing when one visits home. I never really thought, “Hey, on this trip home, I should bring my camera to take lots of pictures of all that stuff that I used to take for granted.” It’s not really the kind of thing that I’d ever really consider while pondering a day-trip to Philly.
Like I said, though, it was a good trip to Philly.
My family and I didn't do too terribly much, but we did venture over to the Whole Foods (which I had honestly only been to like twice but will now probably be frequenting on a much higher scale than before due to my aforementioned raw diet.) The prepared foods there are pretty seriously awesome, it's actually probably the best Whole Foods that I've been to so far (that's not really saying much either. I'm pretty sure it's probably the fourth Whole Foods I've been to. Maybe not even the fourth: one was a Harry's.) But we hung with Dan my roomie and Kennedy a good friend of mine. It was really a good time.
This is my word-based image for the blog. I decided that it would be a good idea to sweep out underneath my tires. Yeah, there were tacks. I'm really glad I did that. My car might be stuck on I-95 getting run over by Mack trucks and pissed-off Philadelphians.
Finally, last but not least. Saturday night was the big Mardi Gras party here at the ol' Best Western. All of the 270 women that were here over the weekend had a big Mardi Gras party. So I leave you with a woman that had a minnie me replete with matching teeth. Ha! 'Nough said.
