magazine coverage

look - it's me! (scanned from a magazine). i got to play in a photo shoot for one of our publications at work (a perk of working in publishing)- it is a meeting planner "helper" which is appropriate for me as my last job was as a meeting planner. i have tried to block out that whole period of my professional life! i loved the work, but MAN do you guys remember how miserable i was!!?! thank god that is over. i still feel happy about my decision to leave there. ANYWAY, the article was about different generations and how they view conferences/meetings (i was portraying the gen y-ers... which we are pretty much on the cusp of gen x - gen y BUT i look like i am twelve years old so it all worked out ... the gen y'ers like to bring their lap tops, i pods, pdas, and cellulars to their meetings so they can multi-task!). So there you have it! FUN PHOTOS from me.

let's see. today is my dear friend kristy's bday. Special wishes for a great day to her.

Jennifer and Jeff visited Little Rock this weekend on a whim which made for a fabulous weekend... i love unexpected lovely surprises such as that one. we made a roast and watched movies. i liked it.

My company christmas party was on Friday. It was as lame as i expected it to be, but we still had a good time.

i have a migrane today. at least i think it is a migrane. it's pretty much THE worst head ache i have ever had... there is lots of pain. i don't do medicine, so it's been a quiet day with the lights off. suggestions that don't require pill popping? ANYONE?? it hurts behind my eyes real bad.

That picture of you with Graham and Johnny is making me laugh! HK is right about lights off, cold compress, but I do this in a hot bath. Surely your haedache is gone by now.

Oh dear-God, I get horrible migraines and the best thing I can say to do is remove yourself from light and noise. I have not found much medicine that really even makes a dent in the pain, so your non-pill popping self is not missing anything. hope it feels better.

oh ya, love the pic. you look like one of my students jamming to music while the boss is talking.

I second the cold compresses. Apparently they distract some of your pain sensing nerves by giving them a different signal to deal with = coldness. Hope you feel better soon!

Andrew gets migraines. He never wanted to take medicine..EVER. So, once he had one and since I knew he would say no to me I had my step-mom give him some Excedrine Migraine and he took it. Since then he swears by the stuff. That's the only pill he'll take!!! Do it! I believe in you!!

I had prescription medication growing up for migraines cause I got them quite a bit....but knock on wood, I can't remember the last one I had now. I would always throw up when I had them. Just an FYI...if you want to avoid pills, go to sleep!
