oh so lovely

I have this grotesque sore on my left nostril. It's infected and red and swollen and oh boy, does it hurt. It's got a crusty, yellowish, boogery-looking scab all over it. Which is just so much ugly icing on the painful cake.

I went to the doctor today and got a prescription for some antibiotics and I hope to be feeling better soon. If not, I'm supposed to go back next week for a follow-up visit.

My Little Friend, with wrinkled nose and grossed-out look on his face, informed me tonight after looking at me (apparently for the first time in days) that, "Oh. You've got something, um, on your face".

Thanks, friend, for pointing it out.
