OT -- Boils

by Marvin The Paranoid Android <marvinparanoidandroid@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 5, 2008 at 11:21 AM

Feck -- I used to get boils when I was a kid (8 - 10) almost every
summer.  Each one had to be lanced (cut) and drained (of pus).

About a week ago I noticed a couple of red sore 'pimples' on my upper
right thigh.  I thought it was maybe some weird side-effect from the
full-body rash (the rash cleared up within a week BTW).  Then as they
grew I remained in denial that they were boils ... hell it's been 35
years, why now?

Anyhow, this morning I got up and trudged off to the emerg.  No one
there.  Fifteen minutes later, I had some local freezing applied (that
****ing hurt -- I didn't cuss when the ****ing needle went in but I
really really really wanted to), the good doctor lanced it, said it
wasn't as bad as he thought and the opening wouldn't need to be packed
with gauze, got a 'script for antibiotics and Tylenol 3's.  I was in
and out in under an hour.  I like our small town hospital.

Taking Advil for now since I still need to function.  The pain's eased
off.  Think I'll go for a nap.

On another note, we had company for dinner yesterday.  It was sunny
and warm.  ****k ribs slow cooked for 6 hours then tossed on the BBQ
along with some chicken, whipped potatoes, steamed baby carrots,
brocolli and green beans with fresh made garlic and herb bread.  It
was good.  We got an email this morning from our guest thanking us
again.  It was a fun day.

That's it.

Cheers & Hugs,
Marvin
