It started pouring almost immediately and I was completely soaked by the time I got home with my shoes full of water. When I was cleaning up at home, I noticed a strange rash all over my chest. Not sure what caused it but my chest was still all red and puffy this morning, so I decided to drive today so I can go see the doctor.
