three things make a post

mmegaera1) I love my local farmers' market with a passion. Spent all of about twelve bucks there yesterday and came home with baby potatoes, hugely ripe beefsteak tomatoes, bell pepper, and zucchinis, juicy nectarines, my first Bartlett pears of the season, and an enormous incredibly fragrant (and delicious -- I had some for breakfast this morning) cantaloupe. Granted, not huge amounts of anything (except the cantaloupe [g]), but still. As a single person, I don't want huge amounts of anything. And there is nothing better than fruit and veggies that are actually allowed to stay on the plant until ripe, dammit.
2) Migraines are weird. Sometimes triggers cause them, sometimes they show up on their own recognizance, as one did on my way home from lunch with a friend on Friday (it's probably just as well as the post-prandial used book store jaunt didn't happen -- I was not happy by the time I got home). And doctoring them into submission sometimes has weird side effects. This time I felt like I was looking out from the back of my brain through my eyes, sort of like a telescope. But it's better than the little jerk with the jackhammer, oh, yes. And the last of it seems to be fading away this morning. Hallelujah.
Oh, and before anyone asks, this one was mild, so it just got the ibuprofen and lots of caffeine treatment. Prescription migraine meds and I have a relationship that's shaky at best, so unless I'm in the fetal position in a dark room, which rarely happens, I tend to avoid them.
3) Yes, it's only the pre-season, and therefore nothing counts, but the Seahawks creamed Denver last night, 40-10, even with Peyton Manning playing the entire first half. The yardage stats look like Denver ought to have won, but they kept getting all the way to the end of the field, where the Seahawks would cause them to lose the ball one way or another. The 'Hawks ran one fumble (and one kickoff return) over 100 yards all the way back for a touchdown. They're 2-0 in the pre-season so far. Go, 'Hawks!
