Ocular Migraines

qosIt's 6:22am, and I am having an ocular migraine.
Usually I get one of these every six to nine months. There's none of the pain usually associated with the word 'migraine.' I get clear-bendy stuff in my field of vision. I can still see, but it's like there's light or thin water flowing through parts of what I see, or between myself and what I'm looking at.
Strong headache medicine and more water usually helps.
The thing is, I also got one of these on Friday afternoon.
Which means that a) I seriously need to hydrate more, and b) maybe it's job-related. Not physical work related, but emotional-spiritual. I don't usually diagnose physical ailments that way, but my resistance to and resentment of my job is on an build-up cycle again. (I won't even go into the dream I had last night.)
Must go take a shower now. And have a big glass of water. That should help. Hopefully this will clear before it's time to actually leave for work.
I have a place I can call to use for appointments for my practice.
I have a design for a one-page flier.
I need to go over it again and make sure I like it, make any minor tweaks it needs, and get it out into circulation by taking it to bookstores, the co-op, bulletin boards in spirituality centers, and emailing to friends for them to share.
Nothing is going to change in my life unless I make it happen.
Simple as that.
