Headaches and Hot Pc's - oh my!
So I had to log into my email to confirm the last minute details with my friend at AK who's so wonderfully providing us the tickets for WDW tomorrow. Good thing I did, we need to meet her a little earlier then planned, though that's fine! Just more time to spend at the park. :)

Woke up this morning with this awful headache. And I still don't know exactly what caused it. My head's been pulsing and throbbing, and it feels like a vice is crushing it. It's not a migraine though because I'm not having the light sensitivity problems nor the pain in my eyes the way I do when I have those. This is wholly different (though just about as painful). My Love suggested it might be a sinus headache but it's weird because I don't have pain in my cheeks (which is where I just read you often do) and I don't think I've ever had a sinus headache before. I checked all the counts and they're not high and my nose isn't especially bothering me either (though my right ear's been driving me bonkers with being all clogged up now that I think about it so the two are probably connected). I took some benedryl though since I couldn't move without the pulsing getting worse and almost knocking me off my feet, and it did seem to help a little. (Though of course, it made me sleepy and I took a nap thereafter.) Who knows though. Just oddness. No matter what though, my ass is going to be at Disney World tomorrow and that's that.

We're still no closer to an explanation of this pc weirdness. I should mention that my Love is in IT and manages 500 computers for his company for a living. (He even has two guys in his department under him.) So we're not new to pc repair. *chuckles* It's just that it acts like something's been changed, though nothing has. And my pc worked here for over two years without a hiccup. Then all of a sudden, we burn through two processors and the problem seems to be coming back to threaten the third. It's so damned odd.

The Happiest Place On Earth...oh, I can't wait. It's so silly. We were last there in June before our passes ran out. It's not like it's been years or anything. Just that I love the place so much and it's such a great escape for me, I've really missed it. It'll be so good to get away and have a fun time. Of course the weather looks like shit, but it's July in Florida, so what do I expect?

Actual predicted high: 92F with a feels-like of 102F and 40% chance of afternoon thunderstorms. Joy of joys. *sighs* It's days like this I think old Uncle Walt didn't think his Florida Project plan all the way through. Though we were watching the "EPCOT" film on the Disney Treasures: Tomorrowland dvd and his plans for EPCOT (the city, not the theme park) including doming off and climate controlling the central hub of the city. Clearly he realized at least to some degree the brutality of central Florida heat and clearly my dreams of having a domed off MK aren't that far from the mark! By the way, the dvd is really cool and has all kinds of things - such as the EPCOT film which was made a scant two months before Walt's death and was never before released in it's entirity to the public - that are very facinating to watch. I definately recommend it to anyone with an interest in space, the 50's views of tomorrow (which many were quite surprisingly accurate), or Walt in general. Very interesting stuff.

Alright, well, I think I've both babbled and used the pc just about enough. Time to close. Take care all.
