See this?

It's the reason I am not going to work today.

Something bit me.

I don't know what or when. There is a lump on my eyebrow, so I am assuming that is where this THING bit me. I noticed the lump which hurt a bit on Monday night. It does not itch.

On Tuesday my eye was swelled a bit, but not enough to miss work or anything. I didn't think much more about it until I got up Wednesday morning and looked in the mirror.

Yikes!

Of course I did not go to work yesterday.

Today it's still swelled though not quite as much.

I wonder if that ugly toad put a curse on me. I had my eye right up to the window trying to get his picture. :)

8:00 a.m update:
It went down quite a lot since I got up at 5:00 a.m. so I decided to shower and go into work after all. I hate to miss work and burden my boss who has to pick up the slack when I am gone.

  9. Thanks everyone for your concern.
    It really doesn't hurt at all - just looks, how shall I say it....UG, UG, UGLY!

    I can hardly stand to open my blog and see it.

    I might have to delete the whole post to get rid of it. I can't believe that I would put something like that on here in the first place!

    Have I lost all my inhibitions?
