headbanging!

Yeah, yeah I know what you are thinking. That kinda music is not for you right? But don’t you worry. Neither is it for me. In fact this head banging is not anything related to music at all. It’s got a deeper and more painful meaning.
Painful? You bet it is. After all, this is the banging inside the head that I am talking about – the banging that only a bout of sinus can inflict on you. Exactly what I am suffering from – and exactly what ismaking my life so miserable at the moment.

As my head throbs painfully, eyes squint to stay open and breath rasps through blocked nose, a single question rears its head – why me? Why should I be the favourite quarry of this dread affliction. Agreed it can happen to anyone but I just don’t see it happening. It’s not fair – after all misery loves company.
And so when I drag myself home after a long chilly day at office and as I walk into my home and am greeted by a sneeze from my wife, my eyes light up with unholy glee. Aha! Here’s a fellow sufferer at last. With a sniff and a groan, we settle down to exchange our list of maladies. As mutual sympathy flows (albeit along with our noses) we finally reach a consensus – this sinus is more than just a pain in the head, rather it is a pain in the butt!
