Art Colony: By Zeus! My Migraine!

I woke up this morning with the worst migraine I have ever yet had. Well, I kinda had it last night--it was a dull throbbing in my left eye, that developed into a rollicking crescendo of pain that controlled my whole head. I couldn't even see out of my left eye in the morning, or stand upright, and I felt like I was going to throw up because my head was splintering. I managed to get dressed while getting up for the obscenely early 8:30 AM final exam in my advertising & the internet class--I had stayed up until 1:30 helping Biff make a hardcover book--and there were times when I take a break from the mammoth task of putting on socks and just sit on the floor with my head hurting so much. I took some advil, we went to Anodyne and got 2 Honeybees (our favorite drink there--2 potent shots of espresso, honey, some flavoring of some kind, and steamed milk) and some cheap leftover-from-yesterday cookies for breakfast, and then Biff and I waited for the bus together as the pain gradually subsided and drew away from my head. I cried because I felt really bad for just having a migraine: when you have one, it's like everything gets turned upside-down and I end up acting really strange. I figured out how I got it--I read my whole "Public Relations on the Net" book twice yesterday, as well as the "Just a Click Away: Advertising and the Internet" book and all of my notes, over and over, to study.
Anyways, I feel great now. I got an AB on my Pantene project! Thanks Rich!! and I think I did really well on the exam. I'm going to indulge in a little bit of "fun time" before finishing up my Phil 104 paper on Kant vs. Mill (the fistfight between deontology and consequentialism, woo woo) and starting to study for the two major, scary exams tomorrow. Which are for "Research for Public Relations and Advertising" (*very scary) and Philosophy 104 (which the professor basically said no one would get an A on, no matter what).
High-five!
Lately, Biff and I have been quoting "Back From Hell" a lot. Especially the part where Larry DuBois, as Jack, talks about "smokin' a doob with Burt Reynolds." Hi-larious. Robin always has the best taste in movies.
