migraines.

The ipod jack to my car stereo is broken, so I've had to resort to listening with headphones while I drive. This is fine, except that lately anything with a heavier backbeat than Yanni induces a dull riot in my brain. As the area between my ears begins to pulsate, I find my jaw clenched as if tension there will somehow purge the thud approximately to its north. I think I can make a generalization here. Pain does this to us sometimes, causes us to walk around, eyes all squinty, brows furrowed, teeth grating together with ferocious looks on our faces. Not that it's not completely valid to look ferocious now and again, it probably is. Just the same, I'd rather not look like a serial killer every time I have a migraine. Plus the clenching gives me wrinkles, and no one wants those.
