Just to get technical, just because shingles herpes isn't "that" kind of herpes doesn't mean that Wolf doesn't have "that" kind of herpes. I don't know where her lips have been and who she's been kissin' on.:p

Holy crap, I just read the info on the link from LabRat's post and I think I had shingles!! I thought it was poison ivy at first, but reading about it, I think it was shingles! I have been stressed. Luckily it was only a small patch on my hand.

I know the little patch drove me nuts, I can't imagine having it any worse. Speedy recovery to you, wolf.

Now THAT"S humor.

Wolf - wanna swap cravings? I can so easily stay off peanuts & chocolate for you, if you can stay off cheese & beer for me.

Sorry to hear bout your eye btw. Despite being hyper sensitive about mine I've never had a proper eye infection and even having my eyes lasered sent me into freak-mode.

Good luck.

PS - post RFN. We need a different version of NSFW

Great.

You just picked my other two favorite food groups.

Won't be able to trade out on that one ...

Damnit

Garlic? Chillies? Bread?
Meh, what am I thinking, you're a woman of taste (am excluding the Hello Kitty thing here of course

)

Gentian Violet? Oh god I used to freebase the stuff when I was a kid. I always had these fucking horrible chancre sores inside my mouth where the gums met the cheek. Awful.

Griff · 11-03-2006, 06:40 PM

We always used Blu-Kote brand gentian violet for the critters. Are you saying you put that stuff in your mouth?

theirontower · 11-03-2006, 07:39 PM

I had a friend get shingles after stupidly messing around with Xtasy, the drug.

Come to find out, that since Shingles lives in your spinal column, and drugs like Xtasy and acid have a huge impact and effect on your nervous system/spinal column, they can release things stored there. A bunch of ppl I know who have done Acid or X (never tried either myself) all complain about a stiff neck/back, back pain and tension, which from what another friend told me is the body reacting to the strichnine used to cut the drug (gee, and why is that I never played with hard drugs?

).

He took too much, and it was released from his spine into this body. It spread over his head entirely, they had to cover his eyes with shot glasses. Eventually it went away, but he was out of commision for quite some time.

Sucks Wolf, hope you get better quickly, not fair to have to deal with somthing like that without a good reason or an obvious fuckup.

Made an hour long (one way), rush hour traffic drive to the doctor's office to get a note saying I can go back to work tomorrow.

xoxoxoBruce · 11-07-2006, 07:59 PM

Now that's a dedicated employee.

Couldn't they have faxed it to your boss? Or did they want to see you first?

wolf · 11-07-2006, 10:39 PM

Lately, time out of the house is always good time, even if rush hour traffic is involved.

I suppose I could have had it faxed, but it's actually better that I went in person. I called ahead to make sure that the note would be prepared, gave them several hours to work diligently on it, arrived at the office to have the Officer Manager look at me and say, "Note? What kind of note?"

"A note to clear me to return to work. My name is 'wolf,' spelled double-ewe oh ell eff."

"Oh. We couldn't find your chart. You had shingles? Are they all dry and crusted? Can you wait about 20 minutes until the doctor is done with a patient to have them looked at?"

Less than five minutes of searching in the place where my chart should have been prompted another office worker to say, "hey, there's some more charts over here ..." My chart was in the mystery pile. Should have been refiled a week ago, but at least they found it.

After displaying my scabs to the Office Manager, she wrote a note on a teensy little form (smaller than one of those "while you were out" pads) and faked the doctor's signature on it.

I hope the boss buys it. I'm running short on reasons not to kill my mother.

There is a little thing called "justifiable homicide."

Just sayin'.
