BZZZ...

As I already wrote about, last Sunday I got stung by a bee for the first time in my life. 2 days ago the foot started inching like crazy. I almost went insane. It was really bad again today. But it has now progressed from just being itchy to the foot swelling up so much I can't bend my toes, redness, and a strange yellow stain within the red, that looks like a river of venom, except that it is huge and no bee stinger could possibly have that much venom in it.

I bought some anti itch spray, and that helped, but the tingling is annoying and so is the pressure from the swelling. I will ice it and see if that helps.

In better news, today at work I was awarded the Air Force Meritorious Achievement Medal, First Oak Leaf Cluster for doing a very good job getting prepared for an inspection. A nice surprise.

Also at work today was an airshow. It was not at our base, but at the base next to us. We are not able to see it. However, the show was a bit delayed due to a heavy marine layer in the morning, so the AF Thunderbirds went later than planned, and by the time they started, we had been released for the day. A few of us made our way onto the roof of our building, where we had the best seats of anyone! The only word to describe it is cool. I suppose also awesome. Many times the planes flew right over us, seemingly low enough to touch as they roared by in preparation for their next maneuver. Wow.

My family had attended the air show so afterward we all met for dinner at my local favorite pizza spot. I just wish I had been able to attend the air show with them.

I hope my foot does not swell up so much it bursts. That would be pretty gross.
