Mind numbing

It's difficult to be introspective, or witty, or sometimes even just normal when life is one long rotation of anti-itch cream, cold compresses and Benadryl.

My arm is much better. My eyelids not so much. It is possible to scratch in your sleep and not really wake up until the damage is done.

That being said, it is also possible to shop with no itching at all for over an hour.

If this is all in my mind I'd really like to figure it out.
