Title: I have to admit
Post by Carl_D on Aug 30^th, 2003, 12:23am

My bandmates have put up hell with me. I spent most of last weekend in pain, and missed some of the fun (skiing & surfing) due to a 'meegraine'. Don't really give a flying fuck what you call them, they suck too, but not as near bad as a CH. Trust me, going into a CH attack while having a migraine...you just have to experience the glory of it firsthand. Two radically different types of pain rallying for position.
My dickhead bass player gave me some shit about it tonight... I told him to shut up before he got the headstock of a 7 string right up his ass with no apologies. He recanted. It is amazing what people will do when faced with a vulnerable attack.
Grab the Imitrex (why in the FUCK won't it work for me?)
Anyway, I am babbling. We had a great, and I mean GREAT rehearsal tonight. This is the first time in many years that I have felt this good. MANY YEARS! I know some people on here can testify to when I had no life, as the beast had robbed me of it. Right now, I am winding into the pit, but ready to take on these m*th*rf**k*rs.

"You gotta knife, I gotta gun, c'mon boys we're gonna have some fun."

I can testify to when you had no life Carl..

Never believed it then, and I don't now.

Wish I could hear you play. LindaH

Wanna hear me play? Without my band? By myself? What I can do single - handjobby, I mean single handedly...
go to

mp3.com/former

wrote and played it by meeself. I am considered dangerous with sharp objects though.

Peace,
Carl D

P.S. - I still think I don't have a life. When I can go for another 2 weeks between attacks, THEN I will think I am starting to get a life. Until then, I am the freek who punches my head in protest when others just can't, and won't understand.

Sometimes Radical things demand Radical means!
Ya ever thought about some kind of radical lifestyle change?
Yea, i know....easier said than done!
Its like its a vicious cycle. No sleep brings on more CH's and CH's bring on no sleep! I believe you got to find you some kind of groove bro, one you can live with! Maybe ur head don't wanna fuggin sleep. Maybe you need to sleep during the day. I dont know what it is, but i think ya need a change!
Sittin here wishing for you a good year Carl, I hope it comes sooner than later!

PFDAN, Patrick

Two dudes, two phones and one ax...two hours of me barking out song titles and Carl ripping into everyone of the songs solos.

The man can play!!.......The stuff he played that he had written was just as good if not better than the stuff you hear on your radio (as long as its the stuff we are talking about ;D)

Hey Carl D -- I remember when you had NO life. Think that was when I had no life either. Remember we discussed it a lot. Maybe your meegrains are catching cause I've developed some arthritic migraines on top of the chs so I really can "Feel your pain! once again! It's the pits to get hit with one while in the midst of the other.

My biggest problem is that when one hits I have to wait and see which kind it is (oh did I mention I also have these post traumatic concussion ha's from a fall I took) before I know which meds to take. Take something different for each and the wrong med won't work on the right ha. When I get to abou a 6-8 I can usually figure out which one it is. Geezz! But what the heck - it's all in my head......

You take care and keep playing the good songs..

Hugs BD

[[{BIG HUGZ FOR BARBARA D]]]

I sometimes wondered if I was alone getting both clusters AND migraines. For me though, the migraines are very few and far between, wish I could say the same for the clusters. They remind me of a character on old classic Saturday Night Live...

THE THING THAT WOULD NOT LEAVE!

Peace and wishing you some pfd&n's,
Carl D
