Emmie 0 #1 February 18, 2002 I just found out that my gear is finally all ready for me. Yep, its all in Florida, nice and new and pretty. The dealer even offered to drive it to Sebastian for me, so that I could jump it all this week. Wings even finished the container early because I kept calling and begging them to finish it in time for me to jump it. But instead of jumping in nice warm Florida I'm stuck in my room trying not to scratch the remnants of my body off. You only get chickenpox once in your lifetime, so of course I had to get it 2 days before a trip I've been planning for 4 months!Sorry to keep complaining, but I'm pretty bitter right now.

I had to go to the hospital to get an x-ray of my lungs to make sure it didn't spread. It was sad, noone wanted to come near me, and someone actually pointed a finger at me and made a face.
