Anyone remember me talking about coming out of my clothes the other day due to wasps stinging me?
Well, we just took the puppy for a walk and crossed a field to pet a horse, when I got a strange, creepy crawley feeling in my jeans.

Told hubby, I'm fixing to come out of my jeans. He said I couldn't because we were too close to the county road and the neighbor's house and they might see me. I said, well you best stand in front of me then, cuz I AM coming out of these jeans.
Dang grasshopper!

You might as well just wear a roomy sundress, at least then you can dig around in it without getting naked....though I'm starting to believe this is a 'thing' with you.

I'm telling ya! It's my animal magnetism...or is that insect magnetism?

And you know grasshoppers kinda pinch/prick/scratch as they crawl on you, so the whole time I'm thinking BE CALM! BE CALM! Snakes don't pinch! Do they????

I've not had a grasshopper in my pants' leg, they just usually fly into my forehead and then take off

My old roomate was stung once by a wasp in a *very* personal place. She was in the shower, leaning over to shave her leg, when the previously unnoticed wasp was angered by the water. It stung her...well...in the buttcrack.
Let me tell you, you haven't been baffled til you've been peacefully watching TV and a naked, foam-covered pal comes screaming out of the bathroom.
Wasps suck.

Deb, I'm really not trying to be funny. It's just not safe to be me around here lately.

I had read your post about the wasps, and asked myself if I would be able to do that. My neighbors are close, and I pretty much figured I wouldn't. Then yesterday, I was cleaning out the laying box that hasn't been used for anything other than a chicken litter box and a wasp fell into the bucket I was scraping the stuff into. I looked and didn't see a nest, so I figured it was nestled in the straw and kept on scraping with the hoe. Two seconds later, several large red wasps fell from a nest hidden it a top corner and came after me, They stuck all over the back of my shirt, and I was smaking, and running, and screaming, and trying to shake my shirt to get them off. My mom was mowing just a few feet away and rushed over to help. I managed to escape with only one minor sting on my shoulder, but if there had been more I would have ended up ripping that shirt off, neigbors or not.

So I guess the lesson is, if an insect is on you, your instinct is to get rid of whatever you are wearing that it can stick too.
