so it wasn't allergies

today was my visit #2 to the doctors office for this "allergic" rash i am currently wearing. come to find out it's some sort of virus, meaning it's not contagious and there is really nothing i can do to rid myself of it. so good/bad news cause it is really annoying. so i ask "how can i contract something like this" and the response is "who knows, it could have come from anywhere, at the grocery store...anywhere" first that makes me paranoid because i didn't know about this virus entering my body, how many other things are just coming and going with out me noticing because me, myself, personality, who i am and what i do are just one aspect of this complex body. it's two separate worlds coming together in one physical form. the inner workings of the body are like backstage at a show, no one see the work and effort going on, and if things didn't happen backstage nothing would be happening at the show. this is a terrible metaphor that i would think of, but so many things happen to me in one day that not only keep me alive but allow me to function as who i am. i am always talking about how i think it's amazing how we are all technically the same, humans, mammals all that stuff, but no one is exactly the same, no one, it's not possible. there is no way one person likes and dislikes, has the same tendencies, looks, moves, evaluates situations like me. why don't i like bananas, i don't know, i just don't. so many varieties to the same thing. it's just a great thing. this rambling has really gone nowhere, too many things entering my brain at once, it could have traveled so many paths, like the systematic workings of the body, or germs, or other medical things i know nothing about, but it did spark a great sculpture idea involving the things i prefer and not...should be a fun time.
