My co-workers are calculating minimum safe distance.
They should play it safe and send you home to enjoy a 3-day weekend!
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Mostly lurking...
Add 'roid rage to that, and I am 10 pounds of crazy in a 5 pound bag.
I can *so* relate. And recently. My last steroid-induced crazies were added to already-stressed crazies and almost landed me inside the hospital. It's so not fun, and I'm sorry you're getting to experience it too. I never wish steroids on anyone.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Is derby big there?
I don't know about "big", but there's a local league. Aims was talking about trying to join at one point.

Steroids are evil.
Except when they're the closest thing medicine has to a miracle.

I hope it's a great day of many great days to come at your new job, Aimee.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
It's so not fun, and I'm sorry you're getting to experience it too.
It's just bizarre, because, like I said, I've taken this exact dose pak before, and never had this reaction.
I just looked in the mirror, and my face is WAY more flushed than it was when I left the house. It feels like a sunburn. (And I haven't been in the sun recently. Plus my makeup has a 15 SPF.) Grr.

Right? It's just SO WEIRD that a drug that's supposed to STOP inflammation is making me all inflame-y.
My drug of choice: irony.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Plus my makeup has a 15 SPF
I had a facial recently and mentioned this same thing. The enethitician (or however you spell it) just laughed at me and asked if I reapplied it every hour.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Steroids are a special kind of evil - sure, they might save your life, but you'll be all kinds of miserable about it.

Because books.
Yay, Aims's new job! Good luck today!
Big boos for Teppy's allergic reaction and Suzi's stress, though.
::gropes Suzi idly for good measure::
Sox, I wish I knew of a mystery blog like that! I would love to find one.

Goodness, it's not like I (a) sweat it off, or (2) work in sunlight (or near a window, for that matter).

Now tagless for your comfort.
They should play it safe and send you home to enjoy a 3-day weekend!
Four day weekend this weekend. Memorial Day is Monday.
