I can relate to that Pensive. Today for some reason, headaches are more distant. I predict you'll feel better soon.

Way too distracted and spaced out...not a good way to be a day before a giant calculus test.

I feel dry. Or, er... at least my eyes do. I should change my contacts for glasses soon. Dear dear, it's just about 11pm. Ahaha... I should start my nightly reading or else I'll be awake until 3am like last night/this morning.

I am tired, but I don't feel sleepy. This was the case last night too, and I was awake till 4 in the morning. And, today I have been out doing things the whole day. I need some 20 hrs sleep........

As it is now I'll just wind up with some more nasty scars on my face... no big deal... just a few more for my already large collection.

Doc tells me I can't work for a few days so expect to see me hanging out around here A LOT.

O.K. Here it is.

As many of you know I am a 3rd generation fisherman. I have seawater in my veins and have been on boats practically since birth. My MAJOR defect is that I am CONSTANTLY sea-sick! So sea-sick, so often that I have in essence based my entire identity on those contradictory elements ... I love the sea and was born to it; but it makes me ill. Mal De Mer (French for sea-sickness) Man is the name of one of my boats, my e-mail address, and my tagline here at Litnet, and my screen/user name at many other sites.

A while back I posted about having an accident... the major result of which was a not-so-minor concussion. When the doc cleared me to go back to work I did so with some trepidation.... the up-chucking associated with my violent sea-sickness often exacerbates headaches, and I still had a doozey of a headache from my accident. Much to my surprise..... no sea-sickness.... not even queasy.

I've been back at work for 5 or 6 days now and STILL no sign of my life-long malady. Never before have I gone a full week (on a boat) without puking my guts out several times.

Talked to the doctor about it.... he was surprised, but not stunned.... he said brain injuries can have all sorts of weird side-effects, some permanent some not. Let's all cross our collective fingers and hope that I'm PERMANENTLY DAIN-BRAMAGED enough that I no longer have to endure Mal de Mer.

Many know that I HATE my job.... but I find myself hating it less and less. I find that, without the threat of being violently ill all day every day, I'm actually looking forward to getting on my boat any charging out to sea. There is an emerging sense of adventure that, most likely, was always there; but overshadowed by the dread of not feeling well.

Somewhere on this site someone asked "If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be?"..... I've suddenly had my wish granted and I couldn't be happier!!

If I had known that a concussion could solve my problem; I would have been violently beating myself upside the head for years, or picking fights in barrooms, or taken up boxing, or become a human cannonball......

Wow, Biblio - that's both bizarre and fortuitous. My congratulations to you, sir!

I hope it is permanent for you Biblio. I love the sea myself, and I don't know what I would do if it made me ill to be out on it. As for myself, I am quite cranky today. I woke up to a horrible allergy attack so my eyes are all red and itchy and my one is already swollen and sore. Not my idea of fun, plus it sucks double bad since I already take two allergy medications routinely. I'm going to take some Benadryl (sp?) and hope it doesn't make me too drowsy.

Was feeling good sometime ago, after watching this very interesting talk show where little children were being questioned! Oh my God, it was soooo cute and amazing!

But now at the moment, I don't feel too good. Even if I try to think about my favourite things...

Physically ill. Mentally okay-ish. If it were not for these pains, I would have been feeling really good. :(

Annoyed, picked up the copy of Jeruasalem Delivered I ordered today at lunchtime. The edition I got doesnt have notes but thats Ok, however it has not been printed in verse format. The lines have been formatted together into prose, that is the last time I will be getting an edition of anything printed from The Echo Library.

I'm glad you told me, because I researched Mal De Mer Man on Google and got all sorts of strange responses that made no sense. ;)

Well for once a concussion does someone some good. I'm happy for you! I get sea-sick as well and NO WAY IN HADES could I be a career fisherman and put myself through that torture.

Best let God handle these things. He knows where to inflict the damage. (-: You might have ended up a drooling vegetable if you had tried it yourself.

Strangely awake, yet sleepy. My friend woke me up at 8 am, texting me from Camp.
