I just can't catch a break.

First off, Loki either has a cold or allergies because he has been sneezing all week and it is driving me nuts. Other than the sneezing, he seems perfectly fine, so I'm not really worried yet, but if this keeps up it will probably mean a truly traumatic vet visit (for the cat and for Captain and I).

Second, yesterday was another doctor's visit, and what should have been a thirty minute visit tops turned into over two hours. Also, it involved me pointing out that I was pretty sure I'd managed to get another infection and the doctor being all "how do you know" and then I actually pointed to the infection and then the doctor was all "yep, you're right" because I'm not a flaming idiot.

And that led to discovering that what started out as a minor skin infection turned into an abscess and then into yet another case of cellulitus in under five days so I'm back on antibiotics AND I got to have the area drained which meant a shot to numb it and all sorts of things I didn't even look at once. It also means I got Percocet (boo) and Captain gets to change my bandages and stuff the wound with gauze a few times a day, which pretty much makes me hyperventilate and threaten to pass out.

So... yay for all of that.

AND I have to go back to the doctor today to check on the infection and I'm pretty sure someone is going to get thrown up on before the day is through.
