the darn latch went on my old polo, so the fumes were coming in, and i had to drive all the way to perugia, then the next day to cortona, was keeping it together, then yesterday there was a jackhammer going all day at home, today was a long headache...

on the good side i located a worm farm an hour from here, and on saturday i'm going with a friend to pick up castings and some babies to start breeding the little darlins.

sourced a stables willing to give away mountains of horseshit and litter about ten miles away, and a friend with a big trailer to get it here.

and best of all sourced 5 different types of edible bamboo, and am planning to drive up to genoa to score some young plants.

woo hoo.

now if only this feeling someone's blowing up an airbag behind my right eye would go away...

Oooh, you have my sympathy there. I have, in my time, driven a car with a broken exhaust for a couple of hundred miles. It was like sticking your head in a combine harveter engine. Ugg, it took an hour long soak in a bath to get rid of that. I recommend similar. Lotsa hot water and perfume, candles, relax.

'cefalea', or 'cluster headache', because it is unbearable.  

Wikipedia has a lot on 'trigeminal nerve neuralgia', etc. although the docs only give pills, expensive nasal sprays and tell you that they will go away in 6 weeks to a few months.

hi metavision, thanks for your concern.

thank the spaghetti monster, no.

my mum had those, she'd crunch down a whole tube of veganin in a day, and still have to lay moaning in the dark for a couple of days, god forbid we might turn on the radio. shhhh!

my headache has finally passed on, 2 cephyls later...

anyone else here discovered cephyl? half homeopathic, half aspirin.

the only industrial medicine i ever have to take, and it's pretty rare at that.

it's that jackhammer wot done it, plus the fumes...

then i had to do some tractor work this am.

it's gone....but i still feel a bit fragile...tomorrow i'll be fine.

"blowing up an airbag behind my right eye"

I hate to say this, but if the feeling persists or recurs, I would suggest visiting a neurologist to guard against a cerebral aneurysm.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
