I got the pills.
And now, storytime!
Once upon a time (last week), I noticed a strange mark on my arm, but thought nothing of it until Wednesday, when it was so irritating and red and swollen that I had to get it checked by my doctor.
Apparently I was bitten by a strange insect (nobody knows) and had to treat it for possible staph infection and should drain the wound.
Last night, however, the wound was improving a lot, but there was a large gathering of pus in the hole. When I tried to remove it, I saw a rather large hole in my arm.
I was just in the hospital, and in less than an hour, I was out! The pus was actually granulation tissue (which forms in an open wound to stop infection) and to keep me from getting any more infected, I have to take 6 pills for staph every day. 
Happy birthday to me...
Luckily, I can't go to swim practice! Also, I got shoes with the members of KISS on them!

Re: I got the pills.
These kind of pills? 
Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say. I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.

What do pills have to do with pregnancy?
I thought you meant drugs, Joe.

Re: I got the pills.
One more reasons to hate spiders...
I hate it when people say "Spiders are smaller than you, so you shouldn't bee scared of them!" Oh, so you shouldn't be scared of a hand grenade hurtling towards you because it's smaller than you, or a deadly virus that kills all that is infected rather painfully, because it is smaller than you?! PFFT.
Anyways, that musta stunk. D:

Re: I got the pills.
I once had a wart on my pinkie toe that was, literally, the size of my pinkie toe, black, purple, rigid and painful.
I got it sliced.

Did it hurt when the puss was removed?
