We do not have headaches...

We have pains, and they happen to be in our head. Might have been our leg or our heart. And then everybody would have been soooo compassionate. But headaches, they're the wimpiest thing people can have, right?

I have decided never again to say I have a headache (except to friends and understanding people) but refer to what ails me like I often do anyway: I have a neurological condition. i may add: and O, those pains in my eye... See what happens if you do not use the H-word.
