Texas wildlife

Yesterday I went to dinner at my mom's cousin who was in Texas at the same time I was there. We were reminiscing about all the good stuff, but we also started talking about some of the not so good. She was telling me about checking beds for Scorpions before going to bed, so I shared my best wildlife story.

Anyway it was a beautiful day, and I was going to sit down on the grass, and as soon as I sat down I felt this horrible pain. It was the most pain I've felt in my life (and I've had a C-Section, which is pretty much the same as being in a knife fight you loose). I jumped up and tried to figure out what had happened. Virginia, my neighbour came running with an aloe vera plant that I rubbed on, but to no avail. It was a burning pain that was moving up my leg, and it moved all the way to my stomach and I got some really bad cramps. At that point I figured that I might want to see a doctor about the pain. I was sitting in this clinic, waiting for the judgement. I thought he was going to tell me that I've been bitten by a black widow or a brown recluse, but no, I've been stung by a caterpillar...
