Cheesecake and Consequences

Who would have known? I woke up this morning a big red blotchy, swollen mess. Really itchy and really gross. And why? I've narrowed it down to the cheescake I ate at Double T last night. I at maybe 1/4 of a piece, but it did have strawberries on it and I should know better. When I went downstairs my Mother gasped and said "YOUR FACE!!!" Needless to say, this is not the best thing to hear first thing in the morning. (Although it's not as bad as some of the things she's said to me when I first wake.) So off to the emercengy room I went. There, they put me in a gown and on an IV of benadryl, Steriods and something else. The needles wouldn't go in the first time and it "blew up" my vein. Has that ever happenned to anyone? It's painful. Anyway. I have once again missed school and work, which is not good. But my face has it's normal clear pinkish white hue, which is better than purple, black and blue. yeah, today has been fun.
