Being itchy covered in red spots is not enhanced by stubble leg.

That is all.

 

freaking measles

 

So I have been —

Researching measles. For, um, no apparent reason.

[Other than my whole body now is covered with so many red dots they have merged and blended into what is looking like a lifesize sunburn that does not respect tan lines. Jeez.]

And looking at measle photos and also at times of incubation and charts and graphs and also apparently there has been a recent measles outbreak in San Diego —

I met someone for coffee exactly about the time I should have contracted measles if this is in fact [damnation] freaking measles and he happened to be visiting San Diego at the time and also has three children the usual culprits and carriers of measles.

Someone is in so much trouble.

hives and pizza

 

The last time —

I had hives it was stress induced. It was also minimal. I got three bumps on my face, which kind of panicked me until I figured out what they were. And they went down pretty fast. One night’s sleep, hives gone.

This time, um, it appears to be an allergic reaction to something and they are all over my legs and forearms. And not pretty. And itch like hell. I keep looking at my legs thinking, Wow, so this is what it is like to be a reptile. I hope those lizards do not itch like this. It would suck to be them.

I am running low on cokes too. I am going to have to leave the house. I am imagining myself swaddled like a mummy stumbling into 7-11 for my cokes.

This is not good.

But to cheer myself up I got a pizza. Pizza is fattening as hell and I have been off all things fattening as hell for a while now except for that one ice cream rampage. But you know, when you are housebound with hives, the least you can do for yourself is have a nice man deliver comfort food and pizza is that.

*it is not really the pizza that is fattening it is the cheesecake that comes with the pizza

*okay, this is not hives and it is spreading um, just out of curiosity, what do measles look like?

*also it itches like crazy help!

the flip flop wars

 

Jeez.

I am turning into my grandmother or something. People I know have just worn flip flops to two so not flip flop occasions and now I am handing out little pearls of wisdom like, If footwear is appropriate for a thirteen year old girl to wear by the pool it is not appropriate for an adult woman to wear to the office or on a date.

I am so scandalized.

Also I so am turning into my grandmother.

*for the aussies in the crowd flip flops are what you call thongs but we have a whole other meaning for “thongs” in the stripes so do not yell that too loud at an airport

when feet betray

 

I always thought —

My mother was somewhat odd because we would walk into a shoe store and she would try on shoes two sizes too small. This happened every time we walked into a shoe store. She would ask for shoes two sizes too small. Then she would ask for the next size up. Still too small. Then she would ask for the next size up again. And then the shoes would fit.

 

---

My mother told stories about my grandmother’s feet growing. My mother had different theories for why. One was when my grandmother moved to California she went barefoot a lot and that made her feet grow. Another was when my grandmother was pregnant the babies made her feet grow. Both kind of suspect theories to me and my grandmother never spoke about such things so I figured my mother just liked those stories because she liked saying my grandmother had big feet.

 

---

One day a friend told me her feet grew and now half her shoes did not fit. This was a much more credible source than a family member.

 

---

I used to have pretty small feet as feet go. Guys in a kitchen I worked in made jokes about the day I would tip over on my Cinderella feet. But I guess adult feet do grow. Mine just did that. It is not all bad. I tend to get shoes big so most of my shoes still fit. But my favorite favorite black patent leather pumps that always fit perfectly do not fit now. They are too small.

Patent leather does not stretch.

sociopath

 

Your result for —

The personality defect test :

 

SOCIOPATH

You are 57% Rational, 43% Extroverted, 71% Brutal, and 86% Arrogant.

You are the Sociopath! As a result of your cold, calculating rationality, your introversion [and ability to keep quiet], your brutality, and your arrogance, you would make a very cunning serial killer.

You are confident and capable of social interaction, but you prefer the silence of dead bodies to the loud, twittering nitwits you normally encounter in your daily life.

You care very little for the feelings of others, possibly because you are not a very emotional person. You are also very calculating and intelligent, making you a perfect criminal mastermind.

[Natch, they do not call me the blonde assassin for nothing, doy dumb quiz.]

Also, you are a very arrogant person, [oops], tending to see yourself as better than others, providing you with a strong ability to perceive others as weak little animals, so tiny and small. You take great pleasure in the misery of others, and there is nothing sweeter to you than the sweet glory of using someone else’s shattered failure to project yourself to success. Except sugar. That just may be sweeter.

In short, your personality defect is the fact that you could easily be a sociopath, because you are calculating, unemotional, brutal, and arrogant. Please don’t kill me for writing mean things about you! I have a 101 mile-long knife! Don’t make me use it!

To put it less negatively:

1. You are more RATIONAL than intuitive.

2. You are more INTROVERTED than extroverted.

3. You are more BRUTAL than gentle.

4. You are more ARROGANT than humble.

[in other words i am zorro]
