Stages of Poison Ivy

Stages of poison ivy:

1. Gardening - fun!

2. What's this on my arm, looks like a bug bite or possibly a bit of poison ivy. Either way, no big deal.

3. Hmm, that seems to be definitely a bit of poison ivy because it has spread, that's unfortunate.

4. Good god why is this still spreading?! Seems like it should have chilled out by now, maybe if I pour rubbing alcohol and hydrogen peroxide on it that could stop the madness.

5. I seem to have angered it, there is no stopping it, the poison ivy rash needs to be left alone to destroy my skin, I have no defense.

6. Day 38 of my pain, Something brushed against my skin today and I had to scream to the heavens "please deliver relief!!!" 

Months and months later: gardening - Fun!
