Headache

I spent a good deal of yesterday afternoon/evening with a headache.  I’d hoped that going to bed would take care of it, as it usually does.  However, no such luck.  Woke up with a headache that I didn’t really shake until about an hour ago.  As the day progressed, my sinuses really started to bother me, until I hit the end of the day and wasn’t much more than a zombie.  So when I left work, I made a point of going to Walgreens and picking up some pseudophedrine.  Mostly, I stay away from taking something for my sinuses unless it’s bad.  I took a dose of that and a couple tylenol when I got home and my headache is mostly gone.  I’m feeling tired however like I’m getting sick.   I’ve been sneezing too, so I do suspect I’m getting a cold.  We’ll see though.  It’s not the end of the world – surgery is still two weeks away but it would definitely suck to get a cold now. 

Fall has arrived.  We were in the 70’s yesterday, but today we didn’t see 60 and it was very windy, while drizzling.  Tomorrow we’ll be a touch cooler, while the winds won’t be so bad and it won’t be raining.  We’ve likely seen our last 70 degree day til next spring.  Another 4 weeks and nighttime flurries aren’t out of the question.  As much as I love fall, fall has one serious flaw around here – winter follows close on its heels. 

There’s really not much else going on right now.  Work’s in a kind of holding pattern right now.  From what I understand, when the mass transition happens, we’ll have little warning that it’s happening.  But I’ve decided to ride the wave, wherever that takes me.  I’ll certainly continue to apply for positions within the company as they come along, but in our current economy, I’m not willing to leave the company.
