Yes.... those good drugs....
Ha ha, okay, so my title is a little carried away, but, for those of you that have ever had poison ivy really bad, you may know what I mean. Anyway, on with the lame story. Well, last Tuesday night, I helped my dad clean out a little bit of a fence row. Lo and behold there was poison ivy in it. Duh! Anywho, the next morning I was covered. What made it worse was that fact that I had to work this week. (Still do sine it is this week still) So, in the morning I talked to my mom about getting a shot but she said that since you have to go to the emergency room to get it(Otherwise they will give you some pills instead) it would cost about 250 dollars. So, needless to say, I didn't go. Well, I asked around at work and found out that my boss, well, one of my bosses, had a great pediatrician. I got in contact with them and they said that a walk in was going to be 25 dollars, but since I was a friend of Becky (my boss) that I would get a discount on the shot and could get it for 8 bucks. Well, if I could have leaped for joy, I would have. (But poison ivy has a very druggy feeling when you are covered with it. [and I know that was horible grammar]) And so, I went and got the shot. It has been two days since then and the poison ivy is almost gone. It seems like a miracle. Anywho, that has been my only good experience with drugs. And although I will stay as far away from drugs, or medicine, I will gladly take them when it comes to the itchy rash.

Glad you're getting better. Poison Ivy sounds like a pain.

Yes, very painful. But it is usually more itchy pain.

Um, well, I have probably said enough things backwards in my life to be called dislexic. But then again, I don't know.
