There is some advice you should always take. Apparently I'm bad at that.

If someone warns you of poison ivy, even if you have no reason to believe them and doubt their claims, you should still take appropriate precautions.

Probably a good idea. Hydrocortisone cream?

More than just that. Topical diphenhydramine combined with 100 mg of diphenhydramine orally. I'm hoping to nip it in the bud as best as I can.

Timing sucks. I'm picking up my lady from the airport on Saturday, which is likely right as it's going to start getting really itchy.

Such is life, however. One foot in front of the other.

Hm... Saturday... will she be in town long enough to hit Conclave? Cause, you know, that would be just the awesomest.

You were going to be really itchy when you picked her up even without poison ivy. (drumroll)

[thatguychuck]

Rimshot.

Nice. :)

[kevinnickerson]

Rimshot. Right. That's what I meant.

You're likely to have problems, however, when the oil hits the anus.

That sentence is useful in so many more situations than I'm comfortable pondering. :)

Eek. Here's hoping you're more or less over it when she arrives. ;)
