I am, what you could call, a very healthy eater. I’m not a vegetarian or anything, but I eat almost exclusively beneficial stuff. I love my fruits and veggies and whole grains. I take my vitamins. When it comes to foodstuffs, I really am a good little munchkin.

This morning, I made my coffee (okay, so there is that flagrant weakness). I drank my first cup while contemplating the notion of food. Then, while I was on cup two, I ate a massive rice krispie treat and two pieces of chocolate.

One of these things I can justify. You see, I woke up with a colossal headache that was absolutely rife with migraine potential. I have found, for me, that there are only two natural substances with the ability to stave off migraine. One is coffee. I know, I know, Little Miss Healthy proclaiming the powers of caffeine-laden, nutrition-light coffee again. That’s right I am. It does have antioxidants, so there. The other? Dark chocolate. Awesome huh? Not only does it taste great. It has migraine-fighting power.

As far as the rice krispie treat goes, my excuse is somewhat flimsier. My girlfriend was eating a rice krispie treat for breakfast. (She is not quite the healthy eater that I am. The other day she went to the store alone, and, after telling me that she purchased Butterfingers, Hot Tamales, AND chocolate covered almonds, actually disagreed with me when I said that she’d bought a lot of candy… and I think she was sort of half-serious). I was envious of her 7:30 in the a.m. dessert and decided that I too should consume a rice krispie treat and refer to it as ‘breakfast’.

To make a long story short (Too late!), I am now sitting here with a stomach that is unstable to say the least and it is all of my own making.

Though I can happily report that my head does feel better.
