Blister blogging reprise
ARGH!!
Yesterday, the raw skin where my old blisters use to be was feeling very sore, and at the end of the day, I found out why…I’ve got new blisters. Like the phoenix rising out of the ashes of its dead parent, these new blisters formed from the new skin that had grown beneath their predecessors.
The good news is that this morning, they seemed to have drained. However, the healing process will probably be set back a couple of weeks anyway because now another layer of new skin needs to grow under the new blisters. It’s pretty frustrating and discouraging…I was looking forward to being able to go running, swimming, etc.
UPDATE: They’re filling up again. Crap!

Not that we didn’t all love to see the blisters the first time I think we’ll be ok without seeing these new ones
So, Dave, how are your blisters today?
You are way too pasty white, man. You need to get more sun so you aren’t blistering all the time. Personally, even though I have had many, many bad sunburns, such a thing has never happened to me. I find it odd that this would happen to you since we share much of the same DNA and have similar coloring.
Oh, yes, and I take comfort in the fact that this whole time that these blisters have been killing you and looking gross in general, they remind you of a glorious weekend with me, me, me
Yes, they are a souvenir of your love.
