I caught a pregnant cockroach. It's now in a small Ball jar, so that I can view it regularly. The egg sack eventually finished popping out of the roach and now the roach is still holding it in its butt to keep it moist because that's what they do. It has also pooped on it because I keep it in this tiny jar.
I vaguely remember reading that they hold onto the sack for awhile, probably longer than the 10 days before they die from lack of water, so I'll probably give it some water because I want to see something interestinger happen.
I went in on Monday to a dermatologist who is functioning as an allergist, basically, for day 1 of patch test appointments. Today was day 2. Tomorrow is day 3. So far we know that I'm allergic to nickel which I knew already. Apparently maybe a couple blue dyes, which... well, I wear a lot of blue. Anyway, I'll go in tomorrow and see what else they say. Monday and Tuesday and today before I went in I couldn't really bend over because the patches were all over my back and taped on quite thoroughly. This was very annoying and I found myself very very hungry. Because I get hungry when I am less than absolutely happy.
Now I'm just grumpy as hell. And very very hungry.
This is a pretty memorable summer. But I am feeling very unwilling to write about it. I guess I don't really like talking about real things.
We're going to go running tomorrow morning. Hm.
