lice, getcha lice

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2017.06.14

The school just sent a note telling us 24 children at the school have head lice. There was a lot of discussion in the email about treating the things. Why do I feel itchy?

Three reasons to be thankful:

  1. It's only lice.
  2. We don't *know* that our kids will have them.
  3. We've made it this far without an incident. Nine years and change is not bad, should our run end here.
