...loosing it completely. That's right, BPOers, your dear friend Swissy may have officially come unglued. It all started yesterday. I went to work, very, very groggy. I figured that it might've been because of the Nytol I took the night before. Well, as the day wore on it became apparent that I was getting sick. I felt all hot, my throat hurt, and I was coughing up a storm. Plus, I had sent an email to a friend describing my feelings about a situation that I thought needed discussing. Well, the email hadn't been read, so that starting stressing me out. Mental note - just call the d*mn person. Anywho, I started feeling all itchy, but figured it was b/c I had worn a sweater to work. Decided to go to bed early, took some advil, vitamins and off to dreamland. At 4:30 a.m., I wake up to Ranger peeing in the bedroom. I had told hubby to make sure that he took Ranger out before going to bed just in case. That obviously didn't happen, so here I am wandering around in the dark, b/c of course hubby hasn't woken up, stepping in pee, trying to get Ranger down the hall and outside. Nothing like pee on the bottom of your white fleece pajama pants at 4:30 a.m. Anyway, I'm cleaning up the pee, and hubby comes out to tell me my method is far inferior to his pee clean up method, to which I just give the evil eye and bite my toungue. Lucky for all of us, he helps me clean up, or I may have been composing this thread from the local NC jail. We decided to leave Ranger outside, until he starts barking and waking up the neighborhood. I settle back into the covers...and MAN...am I itchy! Too tired to deal with it though, and decide it's best to wait until the morning. About an hour later, we hear a "BAAARRRROOOO!" Ranger has decided it is time to wake up the neighbors. Hubby goes and lets the beast back in the house and we all snuggle in for the rest of the morning. I'm working from home today, so I was all excited to sleep in. Hubby wakes me up before leaving for work, appearing to want to get...um....fr isky, to which I promptly give another evil eye. He brings me coffee instead. Smart man. I jump in the shower b/c MAN, I am sooo itchy! Figure I need to wash off whatever is making me itchy. Then, I look...and I'm COVERED in HIVES from my neck to my waist line. I've NEVER broken out in hives. I promptly freak out, yell for hubby, and Ranger comes bolting into the bathroom to see if I'm dead, almost knocking me flat on my tuckus. So, I head off to the drugstore to get some stuff for hives, looking like the splotch queen from h*ll. Then, I decided to get a McGriddle to make myself feel better. Things have been ultra slow at work, but of course I get like a bazillion people I.M.ing me when I'm sick, sleepy, stressed, and ITCHY! I've finally put out all the fires and now am resting peacefully with BPO, as is Ranger and Tigger the cat. I believe they know I'm at my wits end.
Anybody know how to stop this d*mn itching?!?! I took some Benedryl and rubbed some cream on too.
At least the heater is working now.... ahhh.....
