Allergy Attack

When I woke up this morning, my face was pretty itchy and it got to the point where I hat to get up and go look in the mirror to see what was up.

This is what I saw.

The entire left side of my face was engulfed in hives.  What's worse is that I had a gig at my old job today, that I had to cancel because who wants a contagious-looking waiter serving them food?

I'm not sure what the cause of the hives are, as the only allergy I'm known to have are to cats (I know /sadface).
There are more blotches on my right arm, but the rest of my body is clean.  I've been taking a bunch of Benadryl tablets and pills, and even rubbing the creme over my face.  The itching is gone most of the time, but it sucks when it starts up again.

Anyways, I hope this crap clears up by Monday so I can go job hunting.
