knowing that it’s a pre-migraine doesn’t make me feel at all better. just the sound of paper rustling and keyboards being tapped around me make me wince and want to curl up under my desk and cry. the light hurts, the noises hurt. my jaw is clenched so that i won’t throw up and every time i close my eyes i list to the left. i want to go home and crawl under my blanket with a cold cloth over my eyes and three extra-strength tylenol in my stomach and go to sleep. sleep will make me feel better. dark and cool and quiet will make me feel better. not flourescent lights and annoying people in business attire. fucking people making noises. i can’t go home, need the money. have to pay for the channels i don’t watch, you know. i’ll suffer. the advil are dissolving as we speak. i may even be able to eat sometime this afternoon. oh god, maybe not. just thinking about it hurts. i wish i had walls. i wish i had a door. if i could shut them all out it would be okay. maybe.

You don’t get paid for sick time? That sucks.
Oddly, I feel like getting a piece of ass today. *ahem*
it’s complicated, but if you go home sick after three hours you don’t get paid for the rest of the day.
