Headache blog.

Late in my college days, I met the girlfriend of a friend of a friend, who suffered from migraines. "It's like this," she said. "Take your upper lip between your thumb and forefinger, and grip hard. Then pull it all the way around the top of your head."

I've never had a headache that bad, thank God, but the occasional ones I get are bad enough. Like today. It's my head's way of telling me to get more sleep and stop working so much. Sage advice, hard to take as a member of the middle class.
