I woke up yesterday morning started getting dressed for work, and looked in the mirror. I screamed. Little red dots completely covering my face. My first thought was chicken pox, but I think the dots are too small for that. And plus, they don’t itch. They’re just there. The damn things even cover my eyelids. So after calling my mom to cry to, I called my doctor. Booked solid. I called in sick to work, which I hate doing, based on the fact that if it was at all contagious, I shouldn’t be working with food. my mom told me to go to a pharmacist, because apparently they now a lot about different sicknesses. So I went to Brooks, the guy looked at me like I was crazy. “You know,I’m not a doctor.” So I bought some kind of creme for it, and left. My mom wanted me to try CVS too, but I was all set with that. When my mom came home, she seemed to think it was an allergic reaction to something. It’s gotten better today. I leave for Florida tomorrow. If I can’t go, I’m going to be sooo pissed. Especially since my ticket’s non-refundable, as stated by Priceline. On a happier note, I called out sick today too, so at least I can finish packing.
