Yeah, and then I read Sacks's Migraine book (BLESS YOU SACKS) and discovered the little freaky paintings of migraine visual whatsits looked....almost exactly like the doodles I had been making since grade school. Heh.

I also wound up in an ER convinced my retina was detaching after about half an hour of little flashy glowing patches, like the after-image from a lightbulb flash. No! Just a migraine indicator. WTF.
