I'm having one of those weeks this week. Don't you hate it when you get a big ugly on your face. Mrs Sunbum got pink eye...I got this!
I'm waiting to hear back if it is viral or bacterial, but the bad news is that it's spreading down my chin and I have a big lump under my chin in my glands.
Don't you just wanna laugh sometimes, cuz the dangdest things happen to you? Arrgh!

That reminds me of something called (no sure of spelling at all) Infantiago???
If it is, it can be passed on very easy.
I wouldn't be kissing the hubby anywhere anytime soon
Let me know what it is, looks like a pain in the a**.
Oh NO! I was around my nieces on Sunday and I played with all of 'em. 8 mo's, 3 years and 18 mo's. Then this thing showed up on Monday! And it hurts like he!!.
Thanks much for the well wishes and the support, it's just what I needed today!

I would guess Impetigo myself. (Based on the picture) Here is a picture of Impetigo. The good news is if it is impetigo, it typically only lasts days to weeks!!!
Wow - I had no clue what impetigo was nor what it looked like but that pic emily posted looks like what you had.
Although, it seems every time I go on vacation I get bit by some strange something or other that does weird $hit to me - so that may be what happened to you as well.
Looks like impetigo....I had it when I was around 7.....spread like wildfire, but the meds worked even faster. You know how long it;s been since I was 7?!
Well - went to the doc today and he says I have a whole bunch of cold sores. So PF was right - I got them from being in the sun too much on vacation!!
I'm so glad that's all it is, but it is doing a little better today. Unfortunately the doc said that I am supposed to stay out of the sun for a MONTH!
How is that possible? I'm a boater for goodness sakes.
I think I'll be wearing a hat more this year so's I don't get this again.
Thanks for the well wishes, they must've worked because it has improved a ton today!
