resist the itch...

and use the purest aloe gel you can find.

I've got aloe (gel with other stuff) with me here... and it only helps a little...

You know... I could have lived without the graphic description there.

I guess it's my way to share the pain? I don't know....

it's driving me mad....

long bath with some sort of Oatmeal product, exfoliate in the tub, then moisturize the hell out of yourself.

I'll have to do that on Sunday if I survive that long... that's the next time I'll have access to a bath tub (unless it's right before I go to sleep tonight...)

buy some Aveeno oatmeal body wash and use it in the shower.

doesn't help as much as a long oatmeal bath soak, but it's better than nothing.
