The Chess Player, Silent Film, State of the Union

Migraines are much better and more under control, although I can say with certainty that they still certainly occur and daily at that.

I have spoken to so many people through my work (as a pharmacy technician) that I feel really blessed for that job and completely at ease discussing my symptoms and other people's.

There are so many regimens for the treatment of this chronic condition that discussing it with others really allows me to feel good about the future. I hope at least some of that has worn off on others as well. A girl brought in a card for a very bargain acupuncture and that was really sweet of her.

I've been watching so many movies. Currently watching a 1927 silent epic, The Chess Player. Criterion (through eclipse) released a couple of his films (Wooden Crosses and Les Miserables) so it is good to have a basic introduction to his work before I work my way through that sometime in the future.
