Migraine = in pain :(

Sonya here. Remember me?

It's been a while since I posted last. I've basically been a house pest...er, guest...to Josh since my lease ended August 21st and nothing interesting has been happening. I guess that's not entirely accurate as I had the most random potpourri of a few days this past weekend. In the span of Friday night to early Monday morning, I read leisurely, shopped at an antique market, helped pull off a surprise party, smoked from a hookah, and played a few hands of blackjack at Greektown Casino with my parents. Weird. Without getting down to the nitty-gritty details, I enjoyed the Farmer's Market on Saturday and attended my sister's *surprise* Bon Voyage party for John (and kind of herself) at the Heidelberg (great local German bar/restaurant). John's leaving this weekend for 10 months in China and Tanya leaves September 17th. *sniff. It was a blast and I've never seen my dad so much in his element as when I went down to the basement of said German bar known as the "Rathskellar" and saw him punishing the dart board while drinking a whiskey and rocking out to The Diamond's Sweet Caroline blasting from the jukebox. Sweet, indeed. Brunch and gambling with my parents to end the weekend right - you know, your typical Sunday routine.

I came home early from work today with a severe migraine. I've never, ever in my life left work early for something health-related. I felt bad because I'll be gone this coming Friday, too (NY!), but I certainly wasn't in any condition to do, well, anything. Nausea, dizziness, the works. I'm glad I came home. Even though my headache is still teasing me a lot tonight, I hope it's gone by tomorrow morning...I'll need all the strength I can get for the move into my new apartment. That's right - tomorrow's the big day and I'm just praying that it doesn't even sprinkle so that Operation Move Queen-Size Mattress goes smoothly. Here's hoping.

I guess that's about it for now. Maybe once my computer, digicam, and internet are all up and running I'll post some new apartment pics. Also, keep those eyes peeled for Labor Day pics from NYC after next Tuesday featuring Shadi, Carrie, and myself.

Have a nice night.
