Those of us with regular migraines are experienced with the "no external stimulation" rule. Checking a phone or hearing someone open the door to check on you just brings a fresh wave of pain. Unfortunately the pain even in quiet times is usually too distracting to get any good thinking done. Sleeping too much makes the headache worse, and anything you eat is unlikely to stay down. The boredom of a migraine day is unlike anything else I've experienced.
