It's Time To Play...

...your favorite game and mine! Name that Disease!!!

The disease that I have so lovingly nicknamed 'Stress Pox' actually has a real name.

If you guessed I have the measles you are the big winner. That's right, I have the measles. Apparently it's going around here in Switzerland and my case is super crazy. You're supposed to have fever, mouth sores, red eyes, and diarrhea before the rash begins - I had none of those. It's supposed to be crazy contagious, Kyle doesn't have it (we're thanking his trip to India vaccinations for that!).

I know what you're thinking, I'm thinking the same thing! "I'm a freaking AMERICAN, American's don't get crazy third world diseases like measles! What the heck did I get an MMR shot for!?!?! I'm sure it hurt like hell, shouldn't it have done something!?!?!"

And it's crazy painful too. The bumps have started filling with puss so you push on them (say, push on them because you want to wear pants) they hurt like nothing else. And don't forget the one's that aren't full of puss are now super dry and are like razor blades poking me all over my body.

My new game is ridding myself of the puss and razor blades.

So, I'll just have to continue to wear my swimsuit cover-up and I 'll have to have my old hairbrush with me at all times for itching.
