Despite being inside the last few weeks with the workshop and moving and prelim exam stuff, I have managed to get a poison ivy-like rash all over my shins. I am guessing I got it walking to school wearing capris along the bike path. I have looked for the offending plants but to no avail. Now my shins look like the leprous dad in Braveheart. I took benedryl to help with the itch and ended up taking a three hour nap yesterday afternoon and sleeping for 12 hours. How the Hi-diddly-hell did I get this? It would be sufferable if I had some cool story to go along with it like wrestling a bear in a poison ivy patch than sitting in my office typing and noticing I had itchy legs and wondering how I managed to come in contact with a toxic plant. Oh well. Hope y'all are doing better than me.
