Yah know... just a few weeks ago I got a bite of some kind. On my back, or really on my side about even with where my elbow hangs. It was just a big red bump, maybe 3/4inch in diameter. No circles or anything.

I figured it was a spider... and it has since all but disappeared. But it was too big to be a mosquito or anything else I've seen.

I don't know, it could have been a skeeter bite. I've had some that left quarter sized welts on me. They weren't raised very high, but they were HUGH!

OK, I googled it, they used an EMD F series locomotive in Silver Streak, built in 1952, belonging to CP.

I guess it could be a brown recluse...or just about any spider bite...'cept a black widow...they are supposedly very painful and you'd know it if it bit ya. I honestly just thought it was an infected mosquito bite at first.

Thing is, Brown Recluse spiders like to hang out in dark undisturbed places, and Matthew doesn't! So I don't really think that's what it is.

Already, last night at around ten pm, the redness didn't look so inflamed. (Steve and I went in and checked it.) That zythromax is amazing.
