You're invited...

...to a PITY PARTY!

I am not doing well people. I have to have a patch test for allergies tomorrow and in preparation I can't take any of my medication for 3 days. It was supposed to be 5, but because 3 days is unbearable and I'm on such a low dose, they said I could do 3. I am barely surviving. Here's a cute little collage to let you know what my skin looks like...
Beautiful, right? Sorry to gross you out, but how am I going to get pity if I don't show the pics? Besides, I also hope that if someone is doing voodoo on me, they'll see this and have mercy on me.

So, besides taking oatmeal baths & using lotion with menthol, I'm also taking more cold showers than a teenage boy to try and keep these babies in check. Stress makes them worse, so I'm trying to be all zen and chill, and I'm pretty much avoiding the internet, because it gets me all riled up these days. My test is tomorrow, and then I can have the sweet peace that my drugs bring me, and I'll get back to blogging. Until then, it's just me and Zelda, chillin' at home.

Yeah, this game is awesome! :)

    Oh Heather! My heart just goes out to you. I'm still in AZ but when I get back can I bring you anything? Anything at all!

    How unfun! Let's pity party together, okay? I'm sick, otherwise we could actually pity party together; pity partying in neighboring cities will have to do for now.

    I'm trying to think of something positive to say, but I think I'll join your pity party instead and just say THAT SUCKS!!!! I'm thankful you have medicine. What will the patch test do?

    That makes me itch just looking at it. You poor thing!

    My Heather!! I'm so sorry. I usually don't say this because I feel like it takes away from the person actually feeling the pain, but . . .I feel your pain!! You know I do. Call me any time if you need to get your mind off it. I don't even care if you're in your oatmeal bath. You might as well pour some milk and brown sugar in there and make the most of it. Yum!

    So, I visited Husband and Wife last night, and it was delightful. Everything I imagined a sex store would be.

  17. MelancholySmile October 16, 2008 at 2:52 PM

    Ouch. That game sure looks cool, though. I haven't played Zelda since the good ol' days of Super Nintendo. :)

    Wow! Thanks for all the sympathy! I really do appreciate it!

    Julie, the Internet stresses me out these days because of Prop 8. It's polarized our state, with the NO peeps villain-izing us YES peeps...good times.

    ahhh. I feel the same about every election that's going on. The mudslinging makes me want to kill all candidates.
