Just got back from the emergency room with my girlfriend. She has a staph infection in her leg. Pretty sure she got bit by something (a general house spider at work, she thinks..) and she itched it, ended up very swollen and red. She went to the doctor on monday. got put on antibiotics. she went to work today and a nurse saw it and said she HAD to go back to the doctor. she went to doctor, who referred her to get it drained (since it is friday after 5, we ended up at the er.) they drained the gross swollen part and gave her a Rx for stronger antibiotics.
The guy in triage was from texas and said it looked like a brown recluse spider bite. we were like "a WHAT?" but it is not a brown recluse. we just looked it up and it is damn near impossible that there is a brown recluse in upsate NY. More likely just she was bit by a regular spider and it ended up infected. Still gross.
been pretty busy lately. things are going well. i am supposed to go to a training in the morning on LGBT issues and Christianity, but i'm not sure i will be going now that virginia is home for the weekend and unsure of how she will be tomorrow. I will probably go, though. i want to.
Not much else is going on in my life. i'm very out of shape and moving from "contemplation" into "planning and action" stage of exercise. i'd like to go to the JCC tomorrow and just re-activate my membership. i'll pay the full price and then just worry about scholarship later. i need to exercise. today i focused on drinking water.
nothing else to say. :) the end.
