radlilimIt has been a long day.
(We might get TMI here, you've been warned.)
On Monday I had a sore on my nose where my glasses rest. This happens, so I ignore it. Yesterday my face gets kind of sore and my teeth become really sensitive. The sore on my nose starts to discarge a bit of fluid. After talking with Paul we decide I should have it looked at. So I plan to call the doctor today. This morning I wake up with the entire left side of my face swollen. I look like I've had a stroke. My eye is kind of swollen shut as well as my lip, making it look droopy. I decide to call in to work, saying I'll be late. I head off to urgent care. It doesn't open until 9. What part of "urgent" means "opens at 9am"? So I go into work for an hour, since I'm up and about anyway and then go back to the clinic. Turn out I have shingles. So I'm semi contagious, so I can't go into work the rest of the week. But with one coworker working off site at a conference, I can't in good conscious leave all of my work and the one who is gone to the one guy left. No one is the cruel. Plus I don't have any sick time yet. So I worked remotely, dialing in via VPN and talking to people on my cell phone. It was slow, but I got things done. And I'll do that tomorrow. I should be fine by Monday. However, this dose mean that I can't go to Milwaukee with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
exarian for the beer fest on Saturday. Which blows.
On good news, our NOH8 photos have been posted! So I have a new default icon. I decided to retire the cabana boy I've had since I joined LJ.
Here is my NOH8 pic.
Here is one of Paul and I.
And here is me this morning, swollen and sad looking.
