Coffee Colored



Day 5 of treatment, and the wild itching and burning
is gone. The doctor warned me I would have a discolored
arm for a while, so I am resigned to it.

Strange thing: I was walking back from Walmart's one afternoon
this week - on the bicycle path - and spotted the very same variety
of bug on my pant leg. I was wearing white jeans, and it unmistakable.
I had a moment of panic and shook it off, but I am also curious about
the bug.

Sometimes it is just the individual who is particularly sensitive to a
substance, but still...

It has a café-au-lait colored oval back, with darker spots. The size
of a smallish ladybug.
