after many days of screaming, crying and whining, she finally caught on that i feel like i’ve been on the swing too long and that weird stuff comes out my mouth.

so she and dad took me to ED on monday night at 2 – they had a cool little house and people with their eyes closed (which i had to pry open for them) and some things called ‘pamphlets’ that were fun to throw around – it was so much fun that the doctor told me when i smiled at her that i was ok and if i was still sick that i could go to ANOTHER doctor in a few days!

well that was enough for me to make sure the rest of the night that i got to go to this other doctor place and play in the morning. so i screamed, rolled around and threw things, spit medicine and everything.

mom locked her keys in the car, so dad had to come all the way back from town in a car with lights on the roof while mom carried me and my big bag of stuff down to the doctor. he gave me a wooden stick and said “these are the days that make you wonder what the hell you were thinking having a kid.” mom said “yeah, chris said ‘i can’t do this again – no more kids!'” he said i’ve got chicken pogs. mom said the other doctor was dumb.

so i’ve been contagious for 4 days and will be for another week. that means i get to stay home with mom!!!! i love daycare, but jesse poos his pants and harmony screams a lot, so it will be nice to stay home and pull the cat’s tail and watch the doodlebops instead. i’ve already told mom that i can’t leave her lap by screaming when she goes to the bathroom.

oh yeah, and if you guys who i played with last week haven’t had chicken pogs, you might want to keep a look out cause it has a long incubation period. have a look on google for signs and symptoms. it makes you feel real bad! but if you want them, i’ve got some to share and i’ll lick you!
