Wish I knew some quick fix for a headache, and something that would make you feel better. Sometimes I wake up with a splitting headache because of the position of my head or neck as I sleep. I usually avoid pain pills, but sometimes when the pain is too much to deal with, i will take one. I take an aspirin every day for stroke prevention, and I normally take that in the morning, so I start with that. If after an hour, my head is still aching, then I might take a pain pill.
Today a cold front came through, and it has been raining and chilly. All of the work I have is outdoors work, so if it rains, that means I lose the day of work. So today I just rested to give my injured leg a chance to heal, and I watched the newest Star Trek movie. Tonight I will listen to my high school's football game on the radio. My old high school is in the second week of playoffs, and so far this year they are undefeated. I am hoping they can win State this year. I played on an American football team that won back to back State Championships, and during my junior year, the school was given the name "Home of Champions" by the Oklahoma state legislature because we won State in all 5 major sports that year. (Football, basketball, track, tennis, and baseball) We are the only school in the history of Oklahoma to ever do that. My best friend moved to Texas at the same time I did, and he and I played side-by-side on the football team. We have been known to make the 8 hour drive back to Lawton to watch a high school football game, and to give moral support to the boys who represent our school as athletes. He wanted to go for tonight's game, but I couldn't make it. Now I am glad of that because there is a mixture of sleet and rain tonight, and it would have been miserable sitting in that wet cold for 3 to 4 hours to see a game.
