Let me tell you, internet, these two days have just been all sorts of fun. And by "fun", I mean "can it be August, because I am so done with July."
Basically, I've been having some weird-ass bizarre pain - the right side of my abdomen, from ribs down to waist and navel curving around to spine, feels like I have a doozy of a sunburn. Incredibly sensitive to touch, with that same burning sting you get when you brush a hand over a nasty sunburn. Only I don't have a sunburn. Or any visible sign of irritation.
Well, yet, that is. Because I seem to have shingles.
(You see that? That is my mother, doing her "I told you to get that vaccine" dance.)
And to cap things off, I get a phone call from the daycare, right as I'm getting ready to leave for my doctor's appointment, asking me to pick up the Pie because she has a lovely red rash on her face and neck.
So, two doctor's appointments in three hours, $60 in office visit co-pays, and now I get to wait for the Pie's viral rash to diminish (not chickenpox, thank any god that might be listening) and my shingles rash to appear.
And despite the pediatrician saying Pie was cleared to go back to daycare, she seems to have passed it on to a classmate, and once again, my kid is Patient Zero for toddler pandemics.
On the good side,svalar_unnir is coming to hang out on Saturday. I've misseded you, Moon Unit!
