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!

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.

So much is happening at the moment and most of it is awesome, but I don't have the time to sit down and type and elaborate. So I want a plug in for my brain directly to b.org, please.
In the meantime, my ~ma to those of you who need it and their families.

I'm sorry smonster. I hope you got some sleep between your last post and now.
I'm also sorry about your phone, amyth. I'm quite happy with my 3G. If you'd like to make a pilgrimage to the Store of Apple this weekend, just let me know. I'll be happy to drive. (I'll be dropping my sister off at the airport around 3ish, Saturday, but I should be free after that.)
