LUDACHRISTMAS! : Got the Boil to prove it.

And in honor of my favorite show 30 Rock I've decided to call our office Xmas gathering the Ludachristmas Party as well.

It's just hours away, finally. Woot!

Well it won't be anything like the 30 Rock episode (The show is the most awesome awesome ever ever ever. I've stuck with it since the Pilot and never waivered since. Tina I was one of the "dozens" who watched the show when it started! Congratz on another Golden Globe nod!) I know, we're not going to be locked up inside a room with a priest to contemplate the true meaning of Chris--wait. We're going to have mass right?

***

My morning didn't start right though. I had a horrible time hailing cabs on P. Tuazon (the drivers ignored me/almost all of them were already occupied). So I ended up taking the jeep & arriving late yet again. I wanted to take a cab because of the big boil above my right eyebrow.

***
First I thought it was just a big pimple, but since yesterday it looked like I was about to grow a horn. I swear when I got out last night everybody stared at it and I hoped to avoid that this morning, but no. I've put "Katialis" oinment over the sore for a couple of nights now and the swelling has reduced.

I think this is my first boil ever. And almost everyone here at work has willingly shared their boil horror stories. Now, I've heard enough spiels to make me slice this f*ckin thing with a scalpel before the dreaded "eye" shows. I hope this heals before Christmas. I wouldn't want to nurse it the whole vacation.


And


this being my first boil. I couldn't help but to get a little OC-Hypochondriac about it. So I searched the net for remedies and stuff. Most of the sites say that you can treat it on your own.

But you have to see a doctor if:

1. It lasts more than two weeks
2. The pain is unbearable
3. Swelling does not subside
4. If you get a fever.

I panicked a bit last night cause I felt feverish. But I think I'm ok this morning maybe it was all in my mind.

So, I'm attending a party like this:

I couldn't borrow a digicam so I just shoved my face over the scanner.
Oh btw I bought my copy of Jessica Zafra's Twisted 8 last night. A good read so far.


Oh well.

Again Merry Ludachristmas!
