Puffy Al

A very happy half birthday to me! Well, it started out very happtacular indeed! It was a very nice day at work, and my co-workers and I hung out afterwards drinking Coronas and hanging out. Eventually we stumbled over to the local Queen Anne taco shop and had a delish bite of lunch, then parted ways and I walked back home. Egads then things changed! When I got home I began wheezing and I noticd that my face felt a little weird. Numb to be sure, but even more numb than 3 beers warrented. When I looked in the mirror I saw the right side of my face was all swollen and beginning to break out in hives! Yikes! Well I dunno what set it off but yer friend Al was havin a serious allergic reaction to something. Luckily after a few minutes I could breathe alright again, but my face stayed puffy and numb. It's finally almost all gone now. I couldn't believe how du I felt when I finally called my mom to tell her about it and she asked if I had taken any Benedryl. Oh yeah. That would have been a good move. So then I took some and my face is a whole lot less puffy and numb, but now my head is all fuzzy! Plus I've gotten a sum total of nothin done today as far as trip stuff goes, and will most likely fall asleep in a benedryl coma before anything does get done.

Ah but it really was a great morning.

Eekgad! You didn't get stung by a bee on the back of the neck or anything, did you? Hope the swelling has gone down and your pretty face is back to being pretty.
