lymed!

i got lymed. bad. but it's pretty well on it's way now (knock on - yeah, this is oak. nice oak desk we scavenged from some old lady). anyway, man! who knew! i pride myself on being a bit of a hypochondriac, but for some reason this one got by me. and it was a biggie! i started to drag after memorial day, pete was finishing spring semester, my head got heavy, i got some weird chills/fever thing, i tylenoled up, doulaed for my sister mid-june, woke up one morning and felt like i'd been hit in the back of the neck with a louisville slugger - but i thought it was from sittin' up at the hospital. when the rashes came i should have known better. oh yeah, and the night sweats. i actually put a pile of tshirts next to my bed so i could wipe down and put something fresh on at 1am. hello what? and i was sleeping in my car at lunch! good lord woman! can someone take a lesson in self awareness please? jesus christ. when i finally went in after father's day and then googled lyme - well let's just say it wasn't my proudest moment. i felt like such an idiot! a camping novice? tim got it 4 years ago at the same campground and he's like, "what?! do i have to pass out pamphlets?" i guess you do, timmer. i guess you do. maybe next year kruses sticker will be of a giant TICK. sheesh.

but june wasn't all bad. i mean macy lynn did come to be at 4:28 am on june 12, 2010. our newest and cutest family member. can't wait to see her again! no, it didn't make me want one. she is great but i have my hands full with a pete.
