migraine nocturnal this is the perfect excuse for missing class. it's not the kind of illness that lasts more than one day, or sometimes not more than a few hours. how would the professor know you're lying when you say you get them all the time? it's just bad enough to have to stay home, especially when you get the nausea-inducing kind. *wink, wink* yet not bad enough to bother with a doctor's appointment. I love migraines. I wonder what it's like to really have one? 011030 ... w o w noc, i get them. trust me, you don't want to know what they're like. they're debilitating. 011031 ... nocturnal but only temporarily. hence, they are the perfect skipping excuse. all hail migraines! but not actually getting them, just their existence in general. p.s. I actually learned how to say it in Spanish for this very purpose since my prof doesn't speak english. "tuve una migrana y no pude venir a clase." works like a charm. 011031 ... w o w noc, yes. i find you very funny. 011031 ... nocturnal thank you much. 011031 ... w o w you're welcome much. : ) 011031 ... w o w nocturnal is cool. 011208 ... nocturnal I aim to please. 011209 ... w o w always? 011209 ... guitar_freak I had my first migraine. good lord. I will never think a plain old headache is pain ever ever again. 040422 ... deer when thinking, not even about you but about anyone, makes me want to throw up. 060324 what's it to you? who go blather from
