Argh. So much for that.

I was all ready to REALLY get stuck into my NaNoWriMo project today and make a serious dent in the wordcount... but of course, instead, I had to go get a migraine. It came on right as I was saying goodbye to Jei before she left for school, and it kept me in bed pretty much ALL day. Since I'd already slept a lot, it took me a long while to get to sleep, and I ended up 'watching' the visual aura pretty much the whole way through. It started out as a teeny tiny dot... than gradually grew into a bigger horseshoe shape... until finally, it turned into tunnel-vision around the border of my vision... and then disappeared. I guess the whole process took maybe 45 minutes? An hour? But the headache lasted (in its severity) about 5 hours. Still aches now, but I can live with it :P

I think it HAS to be tied in with dehydration. Whenever I go a day without drinking water (or hardly drinking anything), that always seems to be when I get a migraine. Worse if I've eaten a lot of salty foods too. I'm 99% sure that's my trigger now. So I've just gotta make sure I drink plenty of water from now on, and perhaps I'll stop having them so often ^^;;

Also, NaNoWriMo reminds me of Yanomamo ^^; (It's a musical about the rainforest).
