"And I Know You're Afraid..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

Ehe.

Recall, mes amis, the 'dislocated arm'? Yes, well, about that. In my hypochondria, so I called it, but in actuality, this wretched pain...

...is due to the fact that I have a three-centimetre abscess under my arm where my lymph node is, and it's draining thick yellow pus. :D Because you really wanted to know that.

Luckily, of course, Mum is a WOCN, so I am now enduring epsom salts and other appropriate treatments, and a doctor's appointment pending.

I am such an idiot. *dies* I've had a soreness there for three months but never really noticed it until just now when it got so much worse.

In other news, I go back to work to-morrow. *wibbles* I hope everybody's all right!

SOUJIN!

Demmit, my favorite people need to stop getting RAGING INFECTIONS.

*clings*

*clingsback* Is not so awful. Shall not kill me. Shall just be disgusting and uncomfortable for a while.

OH MY GOD!

Does it hurt terribly?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I can't lift my arm without a good deal of pain, and it's rather sore even when I'm not moving, but I think it's more exasperating than anything else. I dislike epsom salts at the best of times, and draining sores are always suitably revolting. :D Thank you for your concern. *pouncehugs, but carefully*

Puss? How . . . nice. You poor dear *strokes hair*

[sansenmage.livejournal.com]

Abscesses are the worst pest ever.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

It's fairly disgusting. *cheerful, but clings* I always get the most random things. Sometimes I'm not really surprised I'm a hypochondriac.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Worse than yeast infections?

SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMMMMM

[little-lady-d.livejournal.com]

pus is so not fun. *snugs*

[fish-bananas.livejournal.com]

Oh my GOD, Soujin. X_________X
I hope you're alright. *sends a fruit basket*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Oh, I know. Revolting. :D

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

It so is not. *clings with one arm*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I know. I'm utterly mad. I don't know how I do it. Vitamin B poisoning was assuredly more fun. Also, less painful.

Aww, thank you. Virgin fruit?

[erinpuff]

Eeeewwwww!!! *does the ick dance* I hope you heal quickly!

As soon as my life settles down a bit I am sending you stuff!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I knowwww! It's so disgusting! Thank you! *clings*

*loveson* You're too nice to me, you know. :D

[little-lady-d.livejournal.com]

*sniffles and snuggles and tucks you in under a big warm quilt and makes you a bowl of soup -- which may have nothing to do with abscesses, but how are you going to say no to a big warm quilt and soup?*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

*absolutely never would, absolutely never. adores frantically*

[little-lady-d.livejournal.com]

*adores back even more frantically, and tells you a bedtime story*

[fish-bananas.livejournal.com]

Best wishes, Missy. ;__; Fruity virgins.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

*curls up quite close and listens with awed, loving, slightly fever-glazed eyes*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Thank youuuu. mmmmmmm

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

I THOUGHT YOU SAID THERE WAS NO FEVER!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I WAS JUST PLAYING FOR SYMPATHY. I SWEAR. THERE'S NO FEVER!

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

...

Well. Good.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Sowwy. *hides*

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

No! Don't be sorry. *follows* I'm glad there's no fever.

[little-lady-d.livejournal.com]

*loves you with a love that is more than love* *and the story goes: "once upon a time there was a princess named hamlette, who was the glass of fashion and the mold of form, and whose knight in shining armor was not so much a knight as a modestly-dressed and soft-spoken scholar ..."* XD XD

[little-lady-d.livejournal.com]

*tells you the bedtime story, too XP*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

*adores you just too much to make good proper words for it*

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

...

I die, Horatio, Kylee! Tell me more.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Okay. *clings*

[little-lady-d.livejournal.com]

*"like all kingdoms worth talking about, hamlette's was under a curse -- perhaps the curse was made by her evil stepfather, or perhaps the princess was merely paranoid. but under this curse, when the wind blew north northwest, hamlette could not tell a hawk from a handsaw ... she also heard things from dead people. which isn't exactly normal, but this is a fairy tale, remember."*

*-- actually, has no idea what she's talking about, just know she wants it to end with the brave sir horatio saving the day with good old-fashioned diplomacy and princess hamlette sekritly being prince hamlet and everyone gets tea --*

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

*listens, attentive, eyes wide and hands clasped in her lap*

*likes this story quite a bit, and totally wants the princess to be a prince-- and she's cursed, after all, so we all know how curses are lifted, oh Sir Horatio (kisses, that's is, not tea)-- and wants to hear more right now*
