OH, ouch, yikes! My mom had shingles, a mild case, but still very painful, she said. I hope you heal quickly!

Well, up until last night, I was like oh, this is painful, but it isn't horrible, no.

Yeah. Last night was bad. Very bad. Felt like I had hot needles sticking out of my back. I was up most of the night.

I'm guessing it's a sign of healing because there isn't as much (warning: gross) "Padding" between the nerve endings and the outside.

After this, I can't take one. I'm already taking almost a week off work. Damnit.

Do you need anything? Can I help in any way?

Not just now. If I do, I'll let you know. I'm pretty much confined to my house. I may try to sneak out tomorrow to sit in the park with a book. It's a block away and it's large enough so I can find a secluded corner away from anyone. I think it's getting better, though. It's still really alien looking but the red between the..things is going away. Still, I have to wait until I'm healed so I'm not contagious.

I have to start packing up the studio. If I feel okay I may sneak out tonight to straighten it a bit and give a key to someone to show it to rent it out. It may way until tomorrow, though. I hope I'll be healed by Saturday.
