So, fun new experience today, I got stung by a scorpion. It had climbed on my purse and I didn't notice it until it struck my finger while I was fumbling around with one of the pockets.
I screamed a lot till the initial surge of pain subsided. I wasn't panicked, since I learned a lot about scorpion stings last year when H got three in one week. Past the initial pain, the numbness and pain wasn't too bad for the first hour or so, then it started creeping up my arm. Now, I'm numb from the fingertips to past the elbow. The worst should pass by tomorrow.
My biggest regret is it escaped, so I wasn't able to kill the bugger. I'm going to be a bit paranoid for a while.
