I slept really poorly last night. Itching woke me up something fierce. And all day my legs have been a ball of itchy fire. I was able to get an appointment with a dermatologist today. I was so scared. When I was waiting for her to come in, I started crying because I was so nervous. She was really nice. Treating my legs with the eczema stuff isn't going to work because that isn't what the problem there is. She prescribed me 2 anti-biotics (one oral, one gel/cream). Right now it's terrible. It seems like everything itches. I want to scream or cry or just not have any physical feeling. I think I'm going to ditch the gym tonight because it will likely aggravate the problem (as it did on Saturday). I feel like a damn medicine cabinet.
In better news, yesterday was the AIDS Marathon Reunion Party. None of my group members were there, which I found disappointing. I decided to sign up again while I was there. The registration fee was $50 instead of $75 since I'm an alum, and this year I'll only have to raise $1,000 instead of $1,400. I might propose a plan for all my crafty friends to make things to auction on eBay. Also, I gave
bottlrokkt a sketch of a design I hoped he'd make awesome and I think I'll do buttons of them, maybe Gocco if it's feasible, or sell stuff off café press. Since I signed up last night, I was entered in a raffle and walked away with a $25 gift certificate to Fleet Feet. Score-o-rama.
Aleda bit me last weekend. Really hard. I've had constant bandaid and Neosporin action going on, so it doesn't look that bad anymore. It looked way worse than it was. I'm just still bitter about it. On the other hand, Mr. Peterson was quite aggressive last week and stood up to Aleda in ways she hadn't before.
Been talking to Scott lots. I'm real happy with us right now.
4 days til Ani.
5 days til my birthday.
I'm taking a vacation day on my birthday. I'm toying with the idea of accompanying Scott to the Naperville Audi dealer, but I might just end up sitting there all day bored as fuck. I'm not sure what I'll do if I don't work. I'm planning a little birthday dinner Monday night with my sponsor and a few other program friends I like a whole lot. Don't ask me why, but I'm super excited to turn 25!
