I'm extremely sensitive to headaches. They're really the only kind of pain that bothers me. I hate them.
And I get them all the time.
My doctor says I'm a "headache person".
I hate winter...
I can empathize with that. :( I'm the same way...chronic headaches, and especially in winter as you said. Mostly I coast through days on pain killers, but overall I've just built up a tolerance to it. -_-

You all too? I'm having a nasty headache at the moment. Head hurts, cold despite being under two blankets, and I'm tired. All in all, I feel awful.

That, and my internet is painfully slow, and didn't work at all yesterday. So I'm just kind of in a 'Blargh' mood.

Mostly I coast through days on pain killers . . . .
Blurgh, what really stinks for me is that Advil, my go-to pain killer, doesn't seem to do anything anymore.
I get by by... grumbling, keeping my eyes closed a lot, rubbing my temples hard enough that the pain of that overpowers the pain of the headache, and drawing.

By the way, my newest pet peeve... I think I've already posted this one, but I'll repeat it...
Deviantart, but more specifically, my internet. It won't let me download. I really really want to download this drawing so I can show Azu, and my internet won't let me.
*Tears something apart*

I'll jump in with the headache-people. Not having one right now, but most of the time, yes.

You know, that's interesting. I've had a headache for the past ... lessee ... six days now? No, it went away on Thursday. So two headaches. Anyway, more than normal, or longer-lasting than normal, depending on how you look at it. I never drew a seasonal connection. Maybe I should look into that.

She's in Finland, so yes. Snow. Finland is essentially the same as Sweden when it comes to weather. But it's really getting pretty cold. Had to put on a jacket for the first time since coming to Stockholm today. Cold hasn't bothered me until now, really. But it's chilly alright.

I still can't fathom that there are countries that don't have snow.

my god, what would you guys do here in Canada!

we've had snow for weeks now, and the winter coats have been out for a while too.

I had to turn on the heating in the house in October.

And it won't get any better until late April.

FYI, the majority of people around here have been wearing jackets for weeks too. I just don't find the cold that bothering.

I'm curious: what do you call "jackets"?

or this:

We've been wearing the former for the past month.
We've been wearing the latter since September.

In this case, the top one. My jeans jacket does fine too though. Just a wee bit too thin... :P

Yeah, if you jean jacket does fine, then it's clearly not as cold out your way as it is here.

I also hate the cold, but I am just really, really intolerant to it. I do not like cold. Whatsoever. I like to argue I'm cold blooded, jokingly. It has to be extremely hot for me to take off my jacket. Most of the day, I'm in my huge, brown winter coat. Actually is pretty awesome when I want to avoid people.

It doesn't snow much where I live, east coast, except for last year's Snowpacalypse. So yeah. Cold annoys me. I hate waking up at five in the morning because I kicked off all my blankets and it's forty degrees in our room.

Cold is okay for me. I don't like being just a little cold, though... if I'm going to be cold, I might as well be really cold. Besides, that way I can burry myself under eight layers of blankets and a heating pad.

Recently, though, my throat has been the bane of my existence.

Drama and Deaths...

I seriously can't win this month.....I really cant.....

1. Family drama where a certain aunt wont keep her nose out of my dad's business and keeps trying to make my mom choose between her or my other aunt.

2. Best friend drama. I work my butt off to plan for her wedding for next year.....we even bought out dresses(actually I practically bought both of them)...suddenly she tells me the wedding is off and she and her fiance are moving to Kentucky. *headdesk*

3. The death of a childhood friend, Chrissy. She died of a brain tumor. I attended her funeral literally a week before thanksgiving.

4. I've been really sick with a bad cold since Thanksgiving......barely sleep.

5. I just found out a co-worker of mine is dead due to a car wreck. (Article)
