March 11, 2000 :: 2:30 p.m.

Had one in the afternoon -- tried a Maxalt this time (about 2:30 p.m.)

He started feeling it while we were helping Ginger install more RAM into her iMac, but didn't have anything with him. It had already gotten revved up by the time we got home, so he tried a Maxalt to see if it would work any differently. He then slept for about 2 hours and woke up feeling like he was tripping on drugs, and just generally totally abnormal. Those effects lasted all afternoon and evening.

We went to Deep Ellum to see a local band at Club Clearview and he started feeling it again by the time it was over, about 1:30 a.m. So he popped another Maxalt that he brought with him and that seemed to keep it down quite a bit. We c ame home and he was able to go to sleep.

He really really did not like the side effects of Maxalt, so he is not going to take any more of those.
