I've got a thing called shingles, had them for coming on two weeks now, man shingles hurt and they're really starting to drive me mad. The rash--or whatever you want to call it--is all up the back of my thigh and is very tender, sensitive and frustrating. But tonight I had to go fishing, ten days or so is long enough, and I figured I could stand on a rock and cast and I caught me a twelve pound bass. That made me happy. My first eelskin plug keeper which made me even happier. Shingles is hard though, all about pain. Strange virus, never knew a thing about it until I got it. I'm on the backside now, should start feeling better. I hope.
