Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Oh geez, what a difficult time of year :( So sorry for accidentally stirring things up and making it even worse. If my hobby of choice weren't decorating eggs I wouldn't even know when Easter is aside from the facebook shenanigans (HankyPysanky has to keep track of such things to track timeliness of spring orders.) I wish you as much steeply discounted candy as you might wish to enjoy. Speaking of which, I should perhaps hit up the local Target for discounted display options.

eta: And your post really wasn't mean-spirited at all. Back when I was firmly religious I still joked about zombie jesus and the delicious treats he brought. Cuz the usual rule of thumb on those risen from the dead is that they only want to kill you and bring you misery, so Jesus was super awesome for bringing treats instead.

Bonny, that sounds like a wonderful time. I'm so glad you went.

ND, I'm sorry today is a difficult day for you.

We're home a day early from Mom's because we accidentally didn't bring enough medication with us. Also, I still can't drive my car. I'm exhausted, but on the plus side I can finally watch Friday's Hannibal.

Tea:

Somewhat squicky medical question. I have a puss filled welt on my thigh where I had a band-aid today. I'm pretty sure it is an allergic reaction to the band-aid, which I didn't realize had latex. My question is, how do I treat the welt?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Benadryl ointment? If it gets really red or feels hot, then see a doctor.

It's only a little red and not hot at all. I don't have any benadryl ointment in the house. Is it okay for tonight to just take oral benadryl and leave it uncoveredd?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Antihistamines, yes. I'd also really gently wash it and put an soothing, uncomplicated lotion or vaseline on it. If it needs topical antihistamines tomorrow, it'll let you know.

I welt more from band-aids than wounds usually. Latex, adhesive. Something is always willing to mess with my skin.

Sorry for the day, Drew. Those are hard.

Compassionately intolerant

sj, if the object doesn't feel inflamed, then you probably can just watch it. I'd suggest outlining the area with a marker so that, in the morning, you can see if it has grown at all.

Thanks for the good wishes, all. I had a blast at the con, which I have to say, came as a bit of a surprise. I might just do it again!

Does Aveeno lotion qualify?

What do people without Buffistas do?

I would think so.

Panic and consult Dr Google.

Don't panic.

And wear less fewer tiaras.

Poor bastards.
