Don't come visit...

apt. 396.
Seriously, it's not a pretty sight over here. Let me tell you the story: So a few weeks ago, actually the Sunday after Lauren's wedding, I got this huge zit on my chin. It was big, red and it hurt. I said stuff to my roommates but they just said it was a zit and it's normal (I don't usually get big zits, just little ones here and there). SIDENOTE: sorry for all the details, i hope you don't mind. At least I'm not posting a picture! So by Wednesday I got so sick of this thing on my chin and tried to pop it...just got into a bigger mess so I just ignored it and it left for a few days. Yesterday I got a surprise. It came back X2. Bigger, redder, more sore and there were 2. Awesome. So after calling doctors all morning to get in today I finally got an appointment with my auntie Cal's doc. He was great. Walked in, told me it was staph and gave me a prescription. The good thing about this?? I finally got meds and proved my roommates wrong. woop! The bad thing? The fact that I can't touch my face at all. It's hard, especially when you can't do it. So I now get to walk around with a big red chain for the next 4 or 5 days. awesome. On top of that awesomeness is the fact that one of my roommates has the swine flu. She hasn't actuall gone to the doc yet, but she has been in bed since Sunday and has flu-like symptoms. So I diagnosed her with swine flu(I've done a lot of researching lately). My other roommate is also starting to feel sick. Let's hope I don't get it or maybe I want to get it sooner than later. I tried to get a flu vaccination today, but everyone I called didn't have it, surprise surprise. I also called my doc to see if I could get Tamiflu but he said no because there's such a shortage. Another awesome fact. So let's hope that this month full of sickness (I was sick the first week of Oct for 3 days) will be over soon. As much as I love you all....don't come visit, unless you want to get sick or your name is mom and you're coming to make me feel better in an instant.

  2. Apparently my name is Mom, too. I don't know if I could do it though!

  4. Hmm...my name is Mom, but as tempting as the situation sounds, I think I'll keep my distance!

    Hope you stayed well!
