big spider


I found this huge spider on my front door step today.

One of my patients today self enucleated one of his eyes 3 years ago. (dug his own eye out) The socket looked good. He was non-verbal so the exam was a little interesting. His good eye was very near sighted so he could only see a couple of inches in front of his face. We hooked him up with some glasses, which he has never had so his life should be much better. He will be able to see the tv at least.

Local B'ham news updates:

B'ham murder rate hit 50 today.

Birmingham is one of the fastest shrinking cities in the country, surrounding cities growing very fast.

It was a scortching 100 degrees today.

Brittney finally moved her bag.... three feet into the laundry room. It is a start.

Looks like a Grandaddy Longlegs (which, contrary to what boys tell each other at summer camps everywhere, are not the most poisonous spiders in the world).
