My history professor for teaching a 2½ hour class with a migraine! Despite being somewhat loopy as a result of it (and possibly the painkillers she took for it), she still managed to teach quite competently, and only really struggled with remembering specific details about specific French and English dynasties, which she then remembered correctly anyway.
Kudos, and I'm really glad she didn't just cancel even though she probably had every right to because the 100 Years War is fun. Well... that and it's a 2½ hour class, which means a lot of material gets covered... and there's only one week after this of regular classes... and there's stuff with the paper that I was worrying about...
Poor woman. I feel quite bad for her, though. That couldn't have been comfortable.

Unfortunately, that means we sacrifice the War of the Roses. =(
Ah, well. It's better this way because there's no extra reading and it just makes life easier. And makes the subject more complete!

Haha. The scary thing is, I actually believe you. o.O ...and with good reason, but still!
Scary.

As someone who suffers from migraines, though, a lot of the time you feel you have to battle through them and that it will eventually get better. I once decided this was a great idea and blacked out. While driving to work. On my motorbike.
Good times.
