Thoughts for the day:

[kiya]

Poetry is hard. And the OL refuge/backup is down, depriving me of people to whinge at about this.

Newsgroup dynamics are fascinating things. I was finally driven to mention exactly what I think of R.L. on rasfc, and the current state of ap is ... fascinating, between the melodramatic drama queen and Orlando rampant on field gules.

I shouldn't have to say things like "Don't break my traps" and "Don't pull the mob you're offtanking into my dead zone" and think things like "Why are you offtanking that way the hell away from the main tank, rendering my ability to hit more than one target completely useless" to a level 70. Really. I shouldn't.

My left knee has a welt on it about the size of the mouth of a coffee mug, for unknown reason (presumably something bit me sometime today). I have applied antibiotic ointment, which appears to have made it itch slightly less, though it's still gigantic and red.

I'm out of cats to vacuum. Back to "Poetry is hard."

ETA: The other thing that I wanted to mention is that I seem to have a back-process of my brain pondering what Hamlet would be like if he had a mantic disposition.

Hamlet is one of the favored rant topics for my eldest son. He thinks Hamlet was a whiny little puke---too much bitching and moaning instead of taking action, according to his young intemperate self. Of course, it does beg the question, was Hamlet "that way" because he actually hoped to get revenge and survive? Surely, he would have had to be far worse than merely manic to begin a process that would intentionally leave the whole cast as corpses?

Watch that bite or whatever, that sounds nasty. Does it hurt?

It itched horribly, in that 'Argh, my knee itches, *scratch scratch*' sort of way. It was swollen, hot to the touch, red, all that good stuff.

I slathered the entire region with antibiotic ointment once I became consciously aware of its presence and it appears to have calmed down overnight. So that's something.

I'm glad its a bit better, but do promise me you will watch it closely. I have seen so many small things like that get scary infections!
