So I wake up on Saturday at about 9am with a really intense stomach pain, like a stomach cramp but worse. Have you ever seen the movie Alien? You know when the alien tears its way out of the man's stomach? That's the most accurate description to what I was feeling... Not only that but I had a wicked migraine going down...I get migraines every so often and actually have some perscription pills that I take for them...so anyway my head feels like someone with a jackhammer has gotten inside my head, or like I went to a Britney Spears concert...I seriously felt like cracking my head open on my dresser to relieve the pressure [Wall Bash]

. But any way I took some of my pills and went to lay down with a cool washcloth over my burning head, the next few hours are a psychadelic daze of pain, sleep, dillusions and me getting up to go and vomit. Meanwhile my mom is also fairly sick upstairs with my step-dad taking care of her. The next thing I know I'm waking up and its 6pm and my body feels like its run a 15k marathon, so I shuffle myself to the kitchen to choke down some water. Feeling better today but jeez...couldn't this have happened on a weekday? It screwed up my whole weekend.

Not really sure of the relevance of this or why Im posting but enjoy...and stay healthy.

Dude, I feel for you. I had a John Hurt moment earlier this month.
