“Don’t move, Jedi. Take him away!” - Jango Fett, Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones
Just so we’re all on the same page. Here are the basic rules for sleeping anywhere in my general vicinity when I am experiencing a migraine.
- No snoring
- No rolling over in bed
- No moving around of any kind in bed
- No sniffing
- No sneezing
- No coughing - are you trying to kill me?
- No flipping the pillow over
- No flapping the sheets
- No open mouth breathing
- No cute little sounds on the exhale – pff, pff, pff
- No breathing
Your obliviousness to my pain-induced insomnia is ticking me off.
Oh dear.
((hugs))
I soooo understand.
I’d add ‘no smelling of soap, cologne, or food when you get in bed with me’
Hope you’re feeling better very soon.
I’m much, much better this morning. But last night I probably could have done terrible things to just about anyone. It was a real monster.
If you’re referring to who I think you are, then I can confirm that all of that must run in the family. Just add in restless leg syndrome, sleep yelling, grunting, allergy-induced snorting, sleep apnea, teeth grinding and the odd ‘noxious emmitance’ and now one snoring kitten and that’s what I ‘sleep’ with on a nightly basis…except the times that I fall asleep on the couch and slumber so deeply that I don’t stir until morning (even with the snoring kitten)! Hee hee!
Those are good rules fro any time, actually. And I’d add one: No kicking, please!
No, there’s no one in particular to whom I was referring. Mostly it’s just an admissin of how crabby and intolerant I get when I’m having a migraine attack. Every.little.thing makes me crazy then.
It is a wonder you didn’t kill me when we roomed together
I’m with ya, sister.
But I must say that since I started drinking coffee (or heavily caffienated tea) every am, I haven’t had a single migraine in … 2.5 years now! I will get the odd caffiene headache if I miss one, but I’m sure you’ll agree – I’ll take a headache over a migraine any day of the week.
Hope you’re feeling better!
