Migraines. Some painful, others the painless ones that play havoc with your vision, equilibrium, speech, and senses. I felt the CME when it hit this morning. Got a sudden ache around the eyes and heard a ringing at about 21 kHz. (I know that's normally out of human hearing range, but I think my freakish hearing is compensation for being well past legally blind before surgery.) I've spent the rest of the day trying to avoid light, and cringing when I couldn't even wearing the darkest shades I could find.

The pain and having to live in shadows so often right now is pushing my temper to a hair trigger, and I can't stand much of the incessant noise my kids make. (Most is high pitched, and it's like it just short circuits something.) I have to try very hard not to snap at them for just being squeely little girls because it flippin' hurts, and no matter how often I explain the difference between speaking normally and yelling, they seem to think making funny voices and yelling are the same thing.

I'm very much dreading the farmer's market tomorrow, but with it just being one day a week, skipping it makes a big difference.
