A fast little spider ran across my desk late yest afternoon at work. It skittered then when I tried to nail it with a rolled up stack of papers, it went up my blouse sleeve, I felt a quick bite and it fell out dead after I was shaking and doing the hula in my cubicle hitting myself with the paper. (Yes, this is my real life and its really how it happened.
Several hours later I am at the pizza joint for my stepdaughters's 29th St Paddy's day bd meal watching her boys don false beards and mustaches (they are 12 and 7) and feel immense swelling, pain on my right side.
I ended up in the 20 mile away ER for an efficient hour where they declared me spider bit and gave me horse pills to take for seven days and benadryl. Lots of instructions on side effects of spider bites. Today, it hurts like a mother.
Don't that Bite?
