Pounding and Throbbing

No - that is not a sexual statement. No sex to be had here until September. Oh dear god in heaven, save me...

Pounding and throbbing is what my head is doing right now. The pain. So much of the pain. I swear this rivals a Lupron Headache. I feel like I should puncture my skull with a large nail and maybe the pressure would subside. However I have this sneaking suspicion that it would only increase the pain.

I woke up this morning - well actually the dogs got me up at 3:00, 3:15, 3:30, 5:00, 6:00, and finally 7:00 to go outside, where they proceeded to dig and eat strange things in the back yard. Stupid dogs. They always do this to me when my husband is out of town...they would NEVER do this to him...he would kick their little doggie asses. Anyway, I woke up this morning (for the final time) at 7:00 and had this KILLER headache. I knew I needed to eat - but wanted no part of that. I choked down juice and wondered around for a while in a sleepy, headachey stupor, and finally took residence on the big leather chair where I have remained for HOURS. I did have to get up to pee the requisite 15 times as all pregnant women do - but other than that - here I sit.

I cannot figure out why my head is revolting. What did I do to you, head? Why are you so pissed off at me? I didn't make you wear a stupid hat yeasterday, I didn't do strange things to my hair, I didn't injure you - why are you being so mean to me? I will get even. I will wash you later AND put my hair up - and I might even stick a hat on you - so there!
