DAMN POISON IVY. I woke up from the damn itchies. No matter how much I try to avoid it, I keep getting rashes from it. I've asked the landlord a dozen times to have his landscaper ( who comes a few times a month to mow the lawn and do other maintanance ) to take are of it. Thats the one thing I definately miss about Brooklyn - no poison ivy. Hell I didnt even know what it looked like before. Now this is my third major rash. The rx stuff barely works. I've poured calimine all over and bought a whole pharmacy worth of over the counter stuff and I'm going crazy. To add insult to injury I can feel it developing on one of my eyelids and have it even on the unmentionables.:eek: I dont even know when this latest one occured as I was away for the weekend and it definately didnt happen there. Sorry for the rant. I just needed to vent. I can thing of good purposes for most of God's creations. Poison ivy is not one of them.

Benedryl didnt really help with the itching but it helped me (over)sleep today. I finally caved in and took the prednsione ( I was given a low dose rx by the school clinic ) and it seems to have helped a lot but I still have to bear with it for a few days.

A coworker of my wife bragged to her how she used poison ivy to get back at her ( now ex) husband. She put on gloves and picked a bunch of the poison ivy and rubbed it all over his clothes, and then folded them nicely back into his drawer. He was miserable for days and never figured it out. Poor shmuck.
