A quick update on me

I thought I'd update real quick before vanishing again.

Tummy wise, I am fabulous, which is LOVELY. It's nice being stable, I must say.

Everything else body-wise though, is not so nice.

Once again, I had a horrible allergic reaction to my hair dye, on wednesday. My entire head is covered in scabs (ew), because I scratch at my scalp in my sleep!

And, my seasonal allergies are kicking in, but no anti-histamine will work! I tried for a week, but nothing stops my eyes from itching like mad!

To top it all off, Ottawa has been having this horrible, horrible, HORRIBLE heat wave, where we hit 30 degrees Celcius.

I am by no means a summer person. Anything over 30 degrees makes me faint. So of course, I'm covered in heat rash.

Oh boy girls, my entire body is itchy, and it ain't pretty!

I have some 1% horticortisone cream from my mom, but, as you can imagine, that stuff never completely stops the itching.

I know I never told ANY of you girls about this, but a few weeks back I went on a trip to Philly with our school band. My boyfriend at the time, Jeff, and I were doing great. But then, after the trip, he wanted to concentrate on school.

Dundundun, a break.

For the next two weeks, I can honestly say I was in the worst shape ever. All I did was eat, go to school, sit in class and stare at my teacher, and then go home. We never spoke, interacted, or anything of the sort. I was a mess.

Finally, just over a week ago, he called it quits. He "wasn't in the mood" for a relationship. Boys. Go figure.
So now I'm slowly getting better, and honestly, those two weeks probably made the breakup easier. I can be around him alright, but if I have to look at him at all, I look at his feet. His eyes kill me, just because they are completely and totally black. Gorgeous.

Anyways, yes, that's all I have to report for now, as I have to get ready for tomorrow. I'm helping out with the CHEO telethon, so Tina if you happen to be watching TV, oh, I don't know, all of saturday, you might see me!

I hope all my girls (and the odd guy) are doing great, emotionally, physically and spiritually!

Despite it all, Isabel, you seem to be in much better spirits. At least school will be out soon, eh? Hang in there till then, OK? Hugs, Alicia.

I'm sorry your body hates you at the moment. I have a nasty cold, so I'm in a bit of the same boat.

You were in Philly?!?! Where?

ISABEL! Hey!

I am in NYC and my poor cat is in my apartment during the heat wave. No wonder my friend that's looking after her wants to put my air conditionner on. I hate that hot and humid weather too. I sympathize.

About the allergies, have you tried Allegra? That's what my doc recommended and I find that it works well for me.

What hair dye do you use that gives you a horrible reaction? You obviously don't have any gray hair yet, so why not try a henna?

About the boy. Huh? I don't remember even hearing about him, missy!

About the telethon. Cool! I doubt I'll be able to catch it here. What day is it on again? I know it's an all day thing. Darn. I guess this means we'll just have to meet up. ha ha

FABULOUS about your tumm behaving. WOO HOO!!!!!

Big hugs to my fellow Ottawa chicky.
