I didn't have to ask, but I did. "What happened!?"
"God damnit! I just got stung about 5 times on the ear! Dirty bastard, that hurts!"
"I'm running over the hill to get some wasp spray so I can kill those bastards."
When he got home, he sprayed the nest and then started on the outside light fixtures. I saw some wasps still crawling inside one and asked him if he'd sprayed that one. He saw the wasp inside the fixture and said he didn't think there was a nest in it. He then proceeded to walk over and tap on the glass. What he didn't notice was that there were 4 wasps on the outside of the glass and one nailed him so fast it made my head spin.
And he did his wasp sting dance again with the filth pouring out of his mouth, and I tried sooooo hard not to laugh.

That is hilarious! Why is it that what is so obvious to we woman fold catch our men by surprise??
ReplyDeletePoor Ival.....that part is for him in case he reads your blog...
oops.....should say "women folk" why don't I check these things before I hit publish??
ReplyDeleteAnd you're trying to sell me this vermin-infested house?! Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteMr Vox is deathly scared of stinging insects. I find it wildly amusing.
Not vermin infested, just nasty, killer, flying insects! The dirty buggers weren't bad because of the cooler spring, but since it's been hot they've sprung up out of nowhere!
ReplyDeleteI had an ex-husband like Mr. Vox. Just about put us through the front window of Taco Time once when we had a bee in the car.
Yeah Vox, you should totally buy Jodi's house!!! It's a GREAT house, wonderful location (pools! playgrounds! lots of other kids her age! Safe neighborhoods!) and who wouldn't want to raise their child in Pleasantville??
ReplyDeleteAnd Jod, this is an awesome story! I can just see Elmer doing the dance! The wasps are especially bad at our house this year too; way more active than in past years. We sprayed those buggers yesterday.
That had to be funny!/sad. But oh boy it does hurt---a hurt like no other.
ReplyDeleteYour father got stung so many times once, that he then became highly allergic to them. scary.
