poison ivy!

i seem to have contracted poison ivy. the rash runs up the underside of my right arm, and then again in the same place on my side where the arm meets it. it itches like crazy. i thought at first that it was an angry spider that had gone on a biting rampage up my arm in the middle of the night, but the blisters don’t really look like bites.

luckily, i seem to have a pretty mild case.

i guess i brushed up against a plant at some point. where? no idea. i walk from home to the bus stop each morning now (and the reverse in the evening) so maybe there is a plant overhanging the sidewalk somewhere along the way.

okay, i have to go scratch now.
