hmm... so in the essence of gross personal info (okay it's not THAT gross- not like the tonsils!) I think I have a mild form of "Dyshidrotic Eczema"
http://eczema.dermis.net/content/e03typesof/e07dyshid/index_eng.html - read more
It manifests itself as small water-blisters on the hands and feet.. only mine doesn't seem as gross as the picture. they don't know what causes it and it's more or less harmless, just itches a bit and the blisters are sore to the touch. the odd thing- I've had one or 2 before and not really noticed them enough to bother to find out what they are- is that I have a lot of them right now.. 22 at last count- and more seem to pop up every day. it was kinda freaking me out cuz I have them on my fingers and my palms- which has never happened before, so I did some reasearch, and that's what I found.
I love the internet.
moving on.. the Grizzlies are famous!
http://echl.com/cgi-bin/mpublic.cgi?action=show_news&id=8172 <-- Coach, Grizzbee, and some fans were CBS's Early Morning show.. part of their travelling around the nation thing I guess.. cool.
and in other hockey news, Matt Craig signed with the Manitoba Moose. While he may have driven me crazy though the season with his freakish moodswings, Matt will remain my first Grizzly-crush and thus have a place in my heart. and he's a DAMN GOOD hockey player. ;)
Oh yes and today is Trevor's birthday. he should have been 26 today. :(
and because I feel like it, and I got sucked in and I want to fall straight asleep and not think tonight- a set of surveys I stole from
