Thorns In The Flesh

I will not be an the blogger meet up today.

This is why.

How bad is the pain? Well, now is as good a time to describe it as any. It hurts so bad my toenails ache and my lips sting. So, basically, I hurt everywhere. I was kind of afraid this would happen. And sad and disappointed because this is how it goes, increasingly. Whenever there is a place a badly want to be, this is how it ends up.

And I feel hypochondriacal, even though I know I'm not.

And I double-dog promise (is that such a thing?) that I'm not only NOT avoiding everyone but want very badly to be there. Especially since my eyebrows haven't grown out yet.
