Ridiculous seasonal allergies
Whooping cough
Strep throat
Ear infection
Lyme Disease
Bed bugs
Spider bites
Allergic reaction to mouse poison
Heat exhaustion
Fly bites (resulting in huge swollen lumps)
Acid burns (from a leaking boat battery)
Bee stings
Poison ivy
Infected open sore on my finger
Chiggers
Cold
Flu
Bumps, bruises, scrapes, etc.
This is the list of gross and unfortunate ailments I've survived in 15 years of working at summer camp. I've never listed everything out before and I'm a little creeped out as I review. But disgusting list aside, at this point, I'm pretty much unfazed by whatever germy, unfortunate ailment arises.
And then I got diaper rash.
Since I don't actually wear a diaper, I'm not sure if what I have is technically diaper rash. Also, I'm 32, shower regularly and have no issues in terms of using the restroom. So maybe we shouldn't call it diaper rash. But something resembling diaper rash is happening on my bottom and tonight I baby powdered myself...
I think it's possible, of everything on the list, I've finally hit rock bottom with gross-ness. It might be time to hang up my fanny pack and go get a nice clean office job.
