Insured again
If I were to be in a horrible, disfiguring car accident tomorrow, I would actually be able to afford medical care. Good thing too since I'm not the best of drivers. That's right ladies and gentlemen. . . after months of nonstop migraines and the agony of searching for the perfect health insurance, I am now insured. Woo-hoo! It's only costing me $124 a month, but whatever. I just have to make an appointment with a doctor and then I'll FINALLY be able to get my migraine medication.
Speaking of migraines, Kim was telling me about how she had migraines all last weekend. Ordinarily, I would be sympathetic. However, I have a feeling that she has a hard time distinguishing between a really bad headache and a migraine. That kind of offends me. Then she was talking about how annoying her migraines have been lately. Is she kidding me? I mean, seriously. I've been getting them for 23 years. I also have been getting them nonstop for the last six months due to the lack of health insurance coverage. Am I complaining? Uh, not really. (This post doesn't count.) I've never really been one to complain about the fact that I get migraines anyway. It is what it is. There's not a whole lot I can do about it, except shut up and take my pills. Now, thanks to the wonderful people of Aetna, I will be able to do that. Life is good. For now, anyway. Ask me again tomorrow.

Congratulations! I am not 100% sure of what a migraine is, but I am 100% sure I probably haven't had them.
Now my husband will call a really bad headache that takes over a side of ones head a migraine, but I think it is more of an ongoing thing.
23 years! How old where you when they started? one? three?
I'm glad you're back on insurance. Should make our skydiving trip in the summer cheaper. ;)
Luke,
Yay! If I break my neck, I'm covered. But if I do break my neck and I'm paralyzed forever, you are totally taking care of me. That's payback for you coming up with such a crazy idea. :)
Lynda,
If you had ever had a migraine, you would definately know about it. I was actually 3 when they started. I'll be 26 this year, so that will be 23 years. Craziness. Of course they didn't actually know I had migraines until I was about 17. I was tested for everything under the sun. Brain tumors, epilepsy, etc. Fun, fun, fun.
