Excedrin to the Rescue??

Today was an unsual day for me. I woke up with a headache that had carried over from the night before and stayed in my apartment trying to rest and meditate until about 2pm. Then I started to panic. I knew that I couldn't teach my 6pm class with my head throbbing like that, and I hadn't cancelled because I thought it would go away by then.

So I go down to Erewhon, get some carrot soup, and stop by 7-11 (of all places) to get some Excedrin --- drastic situations call for drastic measures... and besides, I had tried the herbal "holistic" headache medicine all that morning. I knew from my past experience that Excedrin would knock it right out.

When I got back home, I popped two pills and immediately felt like something messy was about to happen. I walked into my bathroom openned my toilet in anticipation.... and then I threw up for the first time since I can remember. That was bizarre. I didn't think I had food poisoning or anything like that. But the strangest part was, after I vomitted, I felt much much better. My headache started to go away and I felt healed.

I took 2 more Excedrin just to be on the safe side, and got ready to go and teach my class. As I type this, I'm feeling close to 95% well. The class was great. And hopefully I won't have to go through this again anytime soon. I'm thinking it was stress-related. I'm in the process of purchasing some property and I've been working out the numbers in my head a little too much.

Anyway, it's good to be back in shape.
