Looks like I'm going to have to change my bio

Because Cheese and I have temporarily(?) fallen out.

I mean...Cheese!  It's literally a staple food as far as I am concerned.  I meant to have a baked potato with some double Gloucester in it the other night, and instead I got chatting online, involved in Google Maps and squeeing that I could see tharain's boat, and he could see my house.  So I forgot to cook anything. As the microwave is dead, doing a potato would have taken an age, so instead I just scoffed the cheese (at 10pm) and went to bed.

Big Mistake. Huge. It's probably a sign that I'm getting older that my constitution can't cope with things any more.  I woke up at 3am with a headache like someone was sticking a needle through my eye, and my joints were agony, my knees (even though I'd been lying down) felt like they were both dislocated and I had a temperature which didn't break till about 2pm. Nice.  I can only ASSUME this was a food induced migraine, but whatever it was it pole-axed me all day, I went back to bed after feeding the cats at 8am and slept for 8 hours.

Blerugh. Not nice.  All gone today though so business as usual!  But, I shall miss my cheese, Gromit!!!

I've had an awful lot of migraines but never one with a temp. Perhaps it was just viral, and cheese is still your friend. Red wine is what will do it to me, without even a preamble, just ten minutes later, voila, instant agony. No fever, no joints though... I don't drink at all anymore, but I still remember the aftermath of red wine.

It's awful though, the thought of testing that theory out and going through a night like that again.

I feel so very very much better today (almost bouncy) - better than I've felt for weeks, I wonder if it was a mixture of migraine and the tail end of the viral infection I thought I was over from a fortnight ago...

So glad, bouncy is good!
