Well DUH it's his fault--hes in the medical industry, right?? So he shouldve known, or pulled some strings! Cmon, P-C, don't you know anyone important? Jeeeeez.
Still no email from girl. Which is better, I suppose, than the feeling-inevitable-in-my-brain "oh. Sorry. Busy" response.
amyth, I am both sad for your old iPod and joyous for the new one. Will you go 3gs or 4g? And go capstone students!!! Rawk!!
P-C, much ~ma to your mom. That's just awful.
Why yes, I am awake at 3:41 am. Not sure what to do about that.
Um, smonster, honey? Why are you awake? This is Not Good.
I don't know. I went to sleep around 9 and then popped awake at 3:30. I'm very itchy from poison ivy, fire ant bites, and a healing burn, so I took one benadryl, but it doesn't seem to be helping with itching or making me sleepy. Maybe I'll go take some ibuprofen or something.
Sounds like a plan. Might be too much itchy for just one Benedryl too. I hope you get some more sleep soon.
Also, wow. Poison ivy, ant bites and you got burned? Don't make me break out the bubble wrap.
Girl, I am such a mess right now. You should see the bruises on my legs. If only Carharrt made bubble wrap.
The skin around the ant bites on my wrist (did I mention many of those concrete cylinders had ants on them? We were taking out a retaining wall) is red, hot and swollen. Did I mention I'm allergic? I'm afraid to take two benedryl b/c that tends to knock me out for hours.
Yikes!
Some baking soda on the bites? Or ice wrapped in a towel? Or calamine? Itchy is bad.
I left the calamine at work. Could try ice or baking soda. This site is just infested with fire ants, worst I've seen in NC outside the coastal area. Nasty little fuckers.
Ouch, smonster - that all sounds nasty. Ice is probably worth a try. There's a cream you can get for itching that numbs the area slightly - I have completely forgotten what it's called, but it worked when I was in Ireland one summer and got eaten whole by mozzies. Hope you feel better!
Much no-more-surgery-needed~ma for your mom, P-C.
When I got hella poison ivy this summer I used my mouth ulcer gel - anbesol - to soothe the worst of it when I just couldn't handle it anymore. It's 20% lidocaine.
