Ew!

This morning I spent half an hour extracting something from my elbow. I noticed the lump a few days ago, right on the outside of the joint, and this morning it was a bit scabby and infected. THERE WAS SOMETHING INSIDE.
It was too icky to identify what it was (but it wasn’t wriggling, so it wasn’t a parasite). Either a bit of suture was left in there when they stitched me back together after I failed to nail the landing of the ninja flip on Shackleton (and it worked its way down to the point of the elbow), or at some point recently the alien abductions have started again and that was an implant that my over-hyped immune system quite rightly rejected.
Relax. I’m from Zeta Reticuli.
