I get it; I'm cursed. Why? Well, let me take you back 20 years, when I was a wee lass. In the warm summer months (in my tropical island), I would get pus-filled wounds. Yes, puss-filled wounds. Sounds gross, looks gross and it was a pain in the butt. As far as I can recall, I got that 2 summers in a row.
Then, I recall not being able to enjoy shrimp. No shrimp scampi for me, no shrimp fried rice, no fried shrimp, no boiled shrimp, no salt and pepper shrimp. And at a very young age, I actually liked the taste of shrimp, but I couldn't eat it due to allergies.
Fast forward a few years, now living in the desert. During the summer, I'd get itchy rashes on my legs and arms. Our doctor was unable to determine why I got these. They just seem to come when it's really warm (again) and dry.
Today, I'm suffering from sinusitis. I'm guessing it's not acute sinusitis as even when I'm not ill, I get some of the symptoms albeit not as “strong” but it lingers and you know any minute it can flare up. It seems to get worse as I get ill, or get a cold (obviously). The medicine(s) I'm taking (took) seem to just provide temporarily relief. I'm actually taking naps now. I haven't been able to take a nap during the day since kindergarten. I just can't sleep when there's light out, and now, to ease the pain of my sinus attacks, sleep is the only way to succumb to it. I hope all this resting actually works. I actually slept to “Soul Train” on the telly! LMAO. At least I can laugh about myself.
So there you have it, I am cursed. Oh, did I mention I get hives when I drink vodka? >.<
Cheers,
R.
