I was mistaken...

turns out it wasn't brain cancer after all...imagine that......just the beginnings of a cold. I've been a germophobe for the past month avoiding contact with my entire family as they have 1 by 1 gone through a nasty head/chest cold. My hands are raw and chapped from washing them countless times a day. I've been very conscious about keeping my hands away from my mouth...I'm a compulsive cuticle bitter....no kisses....hugs only....and still......the germs won. Get out the finger violins...I'm officially miserable....and currently wallowing in self pity...very unbecoming I know...but there you have it...I'm a wallower.
