Well, that was kind of freaky

At about 9.30 this morning, I developed a blind-spot and I mean that literally. For about 10 minutes, I simply couldn't see what was in the bottom right quarter of my field of vision. It was only when I also started to see flashing lights that I started to think maybe it wasn't eye-related but brain related. When I told a colleague, her immediate reaction was "you're getting a migraine. go home."

Judging by the pain in my head, she was right, although I'm getting off lightly, and it's bearable for the moment. And no, I don't intend to look at the screen for much longer. Even I'm not that daft. Well. Not quite. Probably.

So now I have a whole new exciting field to research - I like to know what's happening to me, especially when it involves brain cells, and if I'm going to get migraines, even mild ones, I want to be ready for it. Research skillz - I has them.

Assuming things done get worse, there will be fic later (thrilling, I know, but try to contain your excitement ;)) and some proof-reading of the [livejournal.com profile] tardis_bigbang website. We go live tomorrow and still so much to do!

How's everyone doing? Do drop in to say hi. I'll be here all day, in between headaches...

*nodnodnod* I was looking at a piece of paper and literally couldn't see what was written in the bottom right-hand corner. It just...wasn't there. Seriously freeky.

Hee, Oscar was fluffy, but not *that* fluffy. And well done for resisting the eye-patch. Much appreciated :)

I'd prefer a plain background, I think, more like the one for Chia. Moons aren't really J's thing ;)

Woot!

ETA: I've only just seen your ETA! I'm happy to trust you on colour, since I have no instinct for it. Plain and simple would suit us better, but apart from that, I trust you!
