Dealing with a Headache

~ Gottfried

When I get a headache, I take two aspirin and keep away from children just like the bottle says. My wife doesn’t think I’m doing it right. You should only become a philanthropist if you’re passionate about it. Otherwise it will become a headache. When the prosthetic legs I ordered are taking too long to deliver.

I like to think that headaches are just two memories fighting each other. The time I shat myself in nursery school because I took too long unbuckling my trousers vs the time I woke in the middle of the night and attempted to polish off 12 heads of banana. The shat myself memory is currently leading the head to head. Only way to win is to make an outright more terrifying memory.

If you are typing a status update that says you have a migraine, then you clearly don’t know what a migraine is. Fun fact, you can get headaches from your hair being up too much. Especially if it’s really tight. Let your hair down Cinderella, you might be surprised at the results. A headache is just a thought running through your brain wearing stilettos.

The joyful experience of an ice pick in the eyeball during a hellish hangover. Just without the fun of getting drunk. Some pain you can distance yourself from, but a headache sits right where you live. Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life.

Stop thinking. I thought so hard I got a headache. One of my favorite games to play; “Is my headache from dehydration, caffeine withdrawals, improper nutrition, a ponytail (I’m bald), stress, lack of proper sleep, not wearing my glasses, the dishes in the sink, that comeback I forgot to say during a heated argument or a brain tumor?”

My wife gives good headache. Headache so good I would love to remove my head. Your existence gives me a headache, go stand over there. Don’t worry about getting older, you still get to do stupid things, only slower. The only way to get through life is to laugh your way through it. You either have to laugh or cry. I prefer to laugh. Crying gives me a headache.

The sleep afterwards though >>>>>

  5. You are right about migraines – they require a silent dark room, not status updates. Fortunately, laughter is more common in my life than headaches. Thanks for adding more, laughter, that is. 😁

    And yes I’ll choose laughing over crying but sometimes the tears put me to sleep😅
