Not Flu Shot, Spider Bite

On Friday, November 4, in Provo, Utah, I was attacked by a spider. It bit the inside of my left wrist. Since then I have developed a rash the goes about 50% around the wrist. Progress of the rash seems to have stopped. I have been applying "Tea Tree Therapy" Tea Tree Oil, and it seems to have some effect. I have also applied, from time to time, Hannaford brand Hydrocortisone Cream 1%. I will provide updates as warranted. During my junior year of high school the linebackers would have film sessions in the morning. Coach Bartelmay would bring donuts and milk. One of the players had long, bushy hair. One morning Coach Bartelmay asked him whether he had spiders in his hair. Wow.
