The pressure in my head was building, causing spots in my vision.
The location was odd, above my ears on both sides.
I could feel my heartbeat pulsing through the pain.
What should I do?
Take Motrin?
Lie down?
Call Hubby?
Call an ambulance?
10 minutes went by and I thought, I’ve had coffee. It’s not caffeine withdrawal.
Menstrual? No,the headaches are NOT usually like this.
I get migraines, but this one feels different.
Worse. If possible.
20 minutes in and I can’t take it.
I get up and go into the bathroom. Afraid to walk, afraid to fall, afraid to vomit.
Then one look in the mirror says it all.

Wearing K’s headband from a game of dress up.
The band was so tight it numbed either side of my head where it met my scalp with such tight force.
The damn thing nearly sent me to ER, and boy would they have LAUGHED.
Reason #458 on why I’ll never be royalty.

That’s hilarious. How sad am I that the little clicky heels never fit my feet?
I love headbands but even the adult ones give me headaches now and then!
Can you imagine the blackouts you would have if you had actual jewels? those suckers gotta be heavy!
It’s still worth trying, right?

HAHAHAHAHAAA.
Yet another thing I don’t have to worry about with boys. But if I ever forget I’m wearing a fireman hat, I AM going to call 911, because those damn things are pretty hard to ignore.

OMG!!! That is definitely not where I thought this was going, but man did I laugh. Good thing you went to the bathroom first. :-)

Hilarious.
And totally brilliant!
Glad it wasn’t anything serious!
I can’t imagine if I tried to wear a dress up headband, I can’t wear adult sized ones without headaches. And yes welcome to the world of aiming low, glad to have you here!
Holy crap, that’s hilarious…
Bonus points to you, though, for putting it on in the first place!!
LOL. The only thing worse than that is tight sunglasses! Glad you’re okay
haha like forgetting glasses on top of your head except…not.

That’s awesome. I can’t stand headbands for that very reason although you.. rocked that like nobody’s business!!!
Ahhh.. the weight of the crown. I’m glad you’re ok and it wasn’t an aneurysm or something. :)
Aw, but you look so cute!
Headbands are torture, though, thank goodness my girl won’t let me near hers LOL!
HAHAHAHA … I would have loved to see the faces of the ER workers … HAHAHAHA … that is priceless. I can’t wear hats or headbands without getting an instant headache. At least it was quick and easy to get relief from your pain.
haha. that’s awesome!
Ha! Headbands give me horrible headaches.
