Jessica,
are you fucking kidding?
Is there reason to believe it might be german measles (as in, has the physician seen them recently)? It seems like a remote possibility. and fucking scary...
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

Because books.
What's scary is that Aeryn is only a year old (plus some). So if this had been last year ...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Posting from the BSFS(Baltimore Science Fiction Society) clubhouse, where we are waiting for the Balticon meeting to start.(Gary runs the music track for Balticon) Why am I here? We had a workshop/seminar in Baltimore for a good part of the day, and it was easier to kill some time in Baltimore, than to drive back to Rockville to drop me off, and then back to Baltimore.

Park Slope is a notorious antivax hub, so an outbreak would not be out of the question. We've had mumps and measles outbreaks in the last 5 years, this would just complete the hat trick. And, like I said, the rash is apparently "textbook." So it's not a sure thing, but possible enough to be worth testing for.
Obviously I'm hoping for "weird random drug reaction."
And I hope E?
He's probably the most vaccinated of any of us, since he grew up in various countries all over South Asia. So he got all the regular US childhood stuff plus all the international travel shots. Typhoid, etc.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I got a crazy-ass rash from penicillin that looked basically like google is telling me rubella looks like, so.

How miserable, Jessica. At least it's called three-day measles for a reason.

Ugh, stupid cold. I can't stop sneezing and blowing my nose. I had to hose myself down with Purell three times while I was at Target.
Now I'm trying to decide what to make for dinner.

It was driving me crazy that the bizarre wife in the Shamrock Shake commercial looked so familiar, and I just realized who she is -- the blonde from Center Stage (which just started on Logo). Also, baby!Zoe Saldana is adorable in this.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's nothing like moving your laundry from the washer to the dryer in front of your apartment manager to make you realise just how many of your panties are pink and frilly. And the answer is: I never want to look at him again.
