Most days, around 4pm, I take a walk around my neighborhood. We live in a nice walking neighborhood and so I put on my iPod headphones and listen to whatever mopey indie rock is striking my fancy these days and take a lap. My usual route takes 35 minutes and gets my heartrate up just enough so that I don't feel like I'm going to pass out.
Yesterday was the first day that it was uncomfortably hot for me to take my walk. It was in the high eighties. I had enough water and was wearing the correct clothing. I soldiered through anyway, which was a bad idea. I didn't have sunglasses and by the time I got home I had charred my corneas. I was seeing spots, and I was really hot and couldn't cool down. I had two glasses of water, one with Emergen-C in it, and still felt like total shit on toast.
An hour later, I left for Geegster rehearsal. I was fine up until about an hour in rehearsal, when I got this really awful headache. It felt like screwdrivers jammed into my temples. I offered to direct the run-through since my energy was being spent on trying to not go home. Eventually, I felt like such crap that I got up and left rehearsal 45 minutes early, missing out on seeing the new GGG photos! POOP!
I came home, took off my clothes, and got in bed. I woke up a bit before Bob got home and ate some spaghetti, and then went back to bed.
Today, I am mostly okay.
WTF headache? I hope I'm not turning into a migraine person. That would suck. Headaches are weird and pointless.
