Pitiful Pityriasis

So, I know this will not come as a shock to anyone- but I am sick again. This time it isn't some sort of throat infection, which I guess means I'm moving up in the world! No, this time it is a lovely skin thing (I hate the word rash, so I'll be a little vague and mysterious) called pityriasis rosea. Or as my mom likes to call it- "pitiful" and "rosy" because I have little rose-colored spots all over me like chicken pox. It lasts for 6-10 weeks, if not more. Hmmmm...maybe I'll look cute as a dalmation... who knows?
