ouch. !$@$%! stupid sandals
On a beautiful Sunday afternoon I decided to return some videos by walking down to the shop rather than driving. Taking advantage of the nice weather I took a longer route home rather than coming driectly back. Partway home I felt a stone in my flip-flop and tried to dislodge it... A few steps later I felt the stone cutting into my foot like it was actually a piece of glass...
Stopping to remove it, I took off my flip-flop to find not a piece of glass but a yellowjacket. And it wasn't cutting into me, it was me being stung in the bottom of my foot :( If you've never been stung on the bottom of the foot - let me tell you it's quite annoying.
Fortunately I wasn't too far from home at this point so wasn't hobbling forever. Though it was the weekend of the houseboat tour so I did get more than a few weird looks as I hopped home.
