today=not such a good day. i was up most of the night. i was super hot, like mom kept touching me with a wet cloth hot. i was very unhappy. even the medicine mom gives me wasn't working. so this morning i was miserable and mom was miserable and then we made dad miserable. there was lots of cursing, more than a usual day.
i ate my breakfast with out any problems. mom got me dressed and out the door we went. she said we had a million stupid unfun things to get done. oh man, can't i just stay home? first stop was the medical walk in center since i don't have a doctor down here. we didn't have to wait long. hot babies with red dots tend to get seen right away. mom says she's pretty sure nothing serious is wrong with me, but you never know. so we got to talk to this guy nurse. mom took my clothes off and showed him my dots. he stuck a hot strip under my arm to see if i was done cooking yet. the strip said i was still hot but in no danger of burning. he said the dots were nothing serious and should clear up in a few days, probably some viral infection producing a rash. one unfun thing down.
went to the drugstore for a new hot detector and calpo medicine.
walked across town to the doctor mom used to see for rejoining paper work.
mom let me out and i walked around the new shopping center. i saw some older boy with his gram. she let him pee right in the street, i mean right there in front of everyone. we avoided the puddle when we walked by. england really is the third world.
ran around the cathedral for a bit. helped mom with the shopping. see lots of boring unfun things.
mom and i were both grouchy because we didn't sleep much so we pretty much spent the day bitching at each other. i reached the end of the road when i tried to tap dance in her dinner. she made another super good veggie lasgana and i kept trying to stomp on it. that's when she offered me flying lessons. lucky for me dad came home a little while later. mom locked me in the livingroom with him.

Tell you mom that it sounds like maybe you've got hand, foot and mouth (caused by the coxsackie virus). There's nothing really to do for it but rest, but you should be feeling better soon!

hi jen. yeah i checked out rashes on monday and that one popped up. nothing i found matched his. all he has is little pinpoint red dots-not raised at all and the ones on his feet faded after just a few hours. he was only really feaverish the one night and no other problems. eats fine and happy enough.
