I didn't realize it had been so long since I was here. The finger was looking better, but now I'm starting to worry about it. There's a black streak along the edge of the skin at the base of the nail, and a dark blob (like a bruise) starting to grow under the center of the base of the nail. If it gets worse, I'll go see someone about it.
Why am I watching Dr. No again? Just because BBCA shows it doesn't mean I have to watch it.
What else was I going to say?
