"Pour me something tall and strong. Make it a hurricane before I go insane." ~Jimmy Buffet
I had to call in yesterday. It was horrible. I woke up to use the bathroom and found a bottle of lice shampoo sitting on the sink. I have absolutely 0 tolerance for lice. Fuck. That. Mom and I spent the entire day doing laundry and spraying down all the bedding. We took shifts on and off because that sort of work is exhausting. I took Michael & Naomi to the store and Mom had me buy some pizza and told me it would be alright if I bought some more shampoo. I took a shower and had Naomi check my head. She said she saw a few things that looked like eggs, but also could have been dandruff.
I told Nathan and he was pretty pissed. I hope this isn't a dealbreaker between him and I. I hope he'll still want to come over again. This makes me really angry. I should have known Ela had lice. She shaved her kids' heads without explanation. She told me one of the kids at daycare had lice and she had an empty bottle of teatree shampoo in the shower. And the bottle I found wasn't the first bottle she had in there. I'm honestly surprised I didn't have any bugs. Between Mom and I, we did 14 loads of laundry over the course of 12 hours. I had to shave Luke. He had so many fleas that when I gave him a bath, they were still jumping all over him.
This morning, I woke up with a very sore throat and my sinuses were clogged. I checked my tonsils and they are really shitty looking.
