this is the first time i have ever had 'swimmer's ear'-- and its been over 25 years since i've had any ear infections-- (the last one was an internal ear infection, very painful, (extremely painful--i was 8 months pregnant, and my doctor gave me antibotics, but suggested no pain relivers.. he didn't like tylenol of pregnant women, and asprin (or asprin based) pain relivers were out of the question because of how the supress blot clotting..) so i just suffered for a few days with nothing but a heating pad.

i'll get some ear plugs before my next class, or a swim cap that covers my ears.


my other obsession
