I got a new haircut, rash

It was a coincidence I got this photo today

Yep. I went back to the doctor's office today. What was it this time? Well, yesterday morning I woke up to a peculiar rash on the inside elbow of my right arm. Kinda itchy. Then the right side of my back started itching. Then my whole torso under my arm, and after my stomach-well you get the picture. Some sort of major breakout going on here. Was it bed bugs? The new soap I bought? Allergic reaction to Indian food? Scabies (as Brandon suggested)? Cancer? Nope. It's (probably) caterpillars, suckers. No, not under my skin (which is what I first thought and nearly pissed my pants). The doctor said I came in contact somehow with caterpillar hair, which can cause a rash not much unlike poison ivy. I couldn't even imagine when I ever came across a caterpillar or its hair. But maybe it's a rare-not-so-rare phenomenon, like getting shitted on by a bird. Ha, it could be good luck. So I got this cream I have to apply twice a day and I should be good as new in 3-4 days. Toyo's dad said that my breakout can also be related to me experiencing stress in a different environment, confronting new challenges that I've never faced before. All this "I-need-more-work-to-get-more-money-to-move-out-oh-shit-how-do-I-rent-an-apartment-in Japan" stress isn't good for the body and I'm prone to get kicked in the balls more so being a rookie at it. I can't say that episodes like the one above don't affect my morale. It's always more shit that has to complicate things, ya know? Oh, everyday I think about coming back home. Then later in the day I know I want to stay. If I had a Suicideometer like AJ, it would be fluctuating more wildly than those zany gas prices! Zing!

Furthermore, this doctor's visit could not have come at a more inopportune time. My travel insurance provider is already "up in arms" about extending my coverage since I submitted a claim a couple of weeks prior. "Are you completely healthy?" they ask me, like I only buy insurance while I'm in foreign country for kicks and I enjoy paying $100 per doctor's visit.
