My real name is Hwa Shi-Hsia (I hate writing it the Westernized way with surname last because it destroys the rotational symmetry of my initials.) My family is of southern Chinese genetic stock, Malaysian nationality, and speaks English, which tends to confuse people from around here. I finished public school in Malaysia and came to the USA for college and graduate studies.
Ah shit. I think I have fleas.
Or at least, my cat has fleas and they're taking advantage.
Something's attacking me. The funny thing is that I groom her regularly and haven't seen anything.
More tomorrow...or the day after...or whenever I get this figured out =P

No fleas here... but when I had a black labrador and cats, I was certainly familiar with heartworm, fleas, and ticks.
Currently I get to worry about dermal melanocytosis and dermatitis, but that's what topical corticosteroids are for, right? One spot I didn't blog about has already cleared up. The other, a much larger lesion that has spread over my shin, will probably take 3-6 weeks to clear.
Growing older is a bitch, Ms. HSH. Take care of yourself, and be careful what you wish for. What you sew today, you'll reap in another decade... and it won't be what you expected, I can promise you and your readers that.
Ken, you're such a hypochondriac =)
