Oh, I should say that's not what I'm alarmed about. I've had chicken pox before.. the real deal, not the useless shot that they're telling everyone to get boosters for. My problem is getting shingles, the adult form of chicken pox that is usually designated for people at least 2.5 times my age. I got it a few years ago, and my doctor suggested it may be either a lowered immune system (which I find shocking considering how many sick people I came across while I was working as a dental assistant), or that my body is just somehow susceptible. My mom has had it a couple of times before, too... I'm writing it off as genetics.

At any rate, I don't want any pocked children near me so that I can become some sort of herpetic rash of a girl. I don't have insurance this time, and can't really afford to deal with this sort of thing right now.
