poison ivy!

[onthemend]

So I thought it was a ton of mysterious bug bites. I have been having nightmares that it's bedbugs and sleeping with bug spray on. I just figured out that I, in fact, have poison ivy. I have never had poison ivy before, so I didn't recognize it. It's realyl unfortunate that this apparently takes so long to heal. I went through my whole life

The answer is to make a paste of baking soda and water. Wash the area with hot water and then slather the paste on. It will dry it out quicker than anything, and after the stinging stops, halt the itchiness as well.

At least you don't have to dream about what awful critter might be feasting on you all night long anymore.

Wait wait! It was just poison ivy? It didn't look like it. Where do you think you got it from?
