Icky

Feeling rather icky this weekend. Woke up yesterday with a fever blister on my lip, which has mutated into an entire colony of ickies on my face. This is, as usual, a direct result in my allergies and having to blow my nose so much. You would think I would be used to it by now. In fact, it wouldn't be half as bad if I had been able to find the medicine I take Saturday morning before heading off to work.. but with all the medicine boxes, there was no such bottle. I must call tomorrow and get a new prescription called in.
Saturday after work Matthew and I went shoes shopping to find him something decent for the trip to Florida. He, as a basic opponent of all "athletic" shoes, had a hard time finding anything. I had a hard time understanding just what he was looking for and "why" he thought boots were appropriate footwear for Florida, but alas, he is indignant.
I went to Avenue and bought the cutest shorts for the trip, which being "bermuda" shorts,fit me more like a normal capri should, so I was happy my short legs found something to wear!
We picked up sunscreen, top, and beach hat for me at Target, and I was pleased.
This morning I woke up with the icky-ness and was in indescribably annoyed-itching-can't-do-anything-about-it-but-whine pain. My face just hurt. We went to yet another shoe store for the magic pair, when Matthew finally decided on the ugliest Merrel boot/shoes we saw. Arguing for the side of comfort, I just can't understand why someone thinks hiking boots are OK, but I digress. Hopefully he will one day embrace the "white-soled-athletic-running-type-shoe" that the rest of us 99.999% wear.
On a crazy note, I finally got summoned for jury duty! I have wanted to do this my entire life and now I had the chance... all except for that one little thing.. I just moved out of Hamilton County! DAMN.
Oh well. We spent the afternoon up at Mom's and helped Dylan clean and set up the aquarium we have left to him. It is such a looooong drive up there now!! HAHA.
We really miss them though and it was good to get up there before our trip.
OK, off to sleep.
