Let us flashback to this summer: remember me mentioning the hair loss? Turns out the two most adorable kittens in the world had given me ringworm. Yes, it sucks-but it goes away, so I wasn't stressing. I have gone to the dermatologist, and have a follow-up, so all should be good in a few short weeks (oh, and I'm on a medication for it as well).
Right after that diagnosis I had some "bumps" forming on my chest. Since the sunburn of 1995 I have never had that great of skin on my chest, so I thought nothing of it. Well, it wasn't going away. Then the rash formed...and was crawling up my neck. I had told Tianna about it, but no one else really. She saw it keep getting worse, and I didn't want to be the little boy that cried wolf, so I didn't really do anything about it. Last Wednesday Kathie noticed the rash and I realized that I really must do something. Turns out-I had a staph infection. I was put on antibiotics, had to stay away from all food preparation (darnit, right) on Thanksgiving, and now I'm doing much better. The hardest part was not being able to hug anyone in my family on Turkey Day!
Progressive has been a dream about my car. I got a 2007 Mazda CX-7 and am in love with. The check engine light came on, but there is a recall on something that has to get fixed. It doesn't affect the driveability at all, so all is good.
That is my update. A lot of random, crappy things happening, but really no complaints, because such is life.

I'm sure glad you are having good luck with the new car. It sounds like a beauty. Reading the rest made me very worried. Glad the rash and ring worm are treatable and hope you are super healthy again soon! I hope you have all your bad luck out of the way now for a very long time. Maybe you should buy some lottery tickets. Good luck has to be coming soon.
Well aren't you just the optimist with the "such is life" comment. Congrats on being an optimist. I'll hold up the pessimist side of the deal, as is my job, unofficially. :-)
I just want to point out that you are totally underplaying this "staph infection". While staph infections aren't fun and I'm not quite sure what a staph infection really is...if left untreated, you could have died. I am SO SO SO SO glad we went and got it checked out!!!! Its looks awesome now!!!!!
You are officially exempted from EVER being the 'girl who cried wolf.' Get that stuff checked out IMMEDIATELY! ARGH!
Glad to hear you like your new car. what is it's name?
Ande, just wanted to let you know that the list of wants I requested from my parents was quite simple this year, a ladder, and dress socks.
