Yesterday I had one of my life’s most horrible headaches. It was so bad that I couldn’t sleep even though I was very tired. After several hours of torture I went to the kitchen to find something cold in the freezer. I ended up with a pack of frozen bacon which I loosely wrapped in a dish towel and brought back to the bed. It actually helped lying there with a cold pack of bacon on my forehead and eventually I fell asleep.

This morning I woke up well rested and feeling good. In my arms I found the defrosted pack of bacon. I can’t even begin to describe the weird mix of feelings that stirred up.
