Maybe you'll be lucky and soon that big welt will dissapear and you will develop awesome super powers. Super spider powers. Like the ability to live under the sink, or the ability to make attics look spooky and haunted with your webs.

I'm rooting for you on this. Get back to me. I want to know if my completely nonmaterial support is working.

(No, in all seriousness, I hope you're feeling better soon buddy - Hopefully it wasn't a recluse and just some much less venomous thing you happen to have a bad reaction to. Good luck in surgery and with getting rest. I know those shifting hospital beds do nothing to make life restful. =/ *ALL THE MANLY HUG*)
