I was walking up the stairs and WHAMMO! a felt this awful stinging sensation that didn't go away and saw about three bees flying around. I WAS leaving them alone. I didn't WANT to get stung. In fact, I didn't even see the buggers until it was too late! The poor bee that stung me is probably DEAD now because it thought I was threatening it. Little ol' me! Hrmph. ANYWAY....it hurt really bad. Luckily Ticia had a first aid kit in her car that had some stuff for bee stings. It helped.

I also have a boo-boo story to tell.

Today, I was reading a copy of Scientific American in the park, when I saw a very cute little bunny rabbit. At the time, a rabbit seemed more interesing that particle physics, so I went out to investigate.

The rabbit was quite tame, actually. I tried to pick it up, but it ran away, so me and my dad chased it around the parking lot.

However...

A somewhat undesirable man decided to let his large rottwieler out of his car at the very moment I was chasing the rabbit. Senseing fresh meat, the dog ran after the poor rabbit, probably giving it an anyerism in the process.

Being the courageous guy that I am, I threw myself in front of the beast. This didn't work very well, because the thing ran right *through* me. It didn't run under my legs, or beside me. It hip-checked me and sent me head over heels without losing stride.

Now I have a sprained wrist. And my mouse-hand, too!

But the pain isn't too bad. I did have some motrin, asprin, and Miller Light to help. :-Þ
