Continued healing to amyth.

I have every wed in December off in order to use up vacation, so lazy morning here.

So, I have a rash that is suspiciously shingles like (I have an appt later today). My DH doesn't remember ever having chicken pox, and there is no one to ask if he did or not.

Has he had the chicken pox vaccine??

a mess, of course. Last night's suspicious person was, apparently, a member of the faculty.

Suspicious person? Like, is this "damn they are racially profiling" or a "damn the faculty has gone off the rails"? Shelter in place seems out of proportion in the first instance but suspicious person would seem to be an understatement in the second??

I really hope it's not shingles, Sparky.

Oh, no, Sparky.

Do you have to have had chickenpox to get shingles, am I remembering that right? I hope you don't have shingles either way, I understand it's pretty miserable.

Glad to see your pixels, amyth!

Yipes and extra yipes, Sparky!! That's not a good situation.

I've always thought Vermont was the Tea Party's worst nightmare--a bunch of well armed lefties.

I am a fan of this idea, I just wished I liked firearms more.

I had shingles and got diagnosed right away and they gave me Valtrex and it worked like a charm. Go team effective drugs with no side effects (for me)! I had a coworker with a too young to be vaccinated baby at the time but we figured our contact was limited enough that we didn't worry much.
