[QUOTE="3Roosters, post: 48698, member: 1351"] Last week we decided to eat supper out on the back deck since it was nice out..and it is how we roll when it is nice out. We had seen a few pesky yellow jackets bothering us during suppers a few evenings before..nothing to worry about..nothing a simple flyswatter couldn't handle if they got too close to the table. Last week on the one occasion..things changed. I left my glass of white wine, Reisling to be exact, on the picnic table and headed in the house to assist the better half bringing the remaining dishes outside. We sat down to eat, like any other normal supper. I proceeded to take a drink...dang..I should have taken a sip...of my glass of Reisling. I should have looked INTO the wine glass. As I was about to swallow this fine wine, the back of my throat felt something more than wine..something more solid and with more body than Reisling. Life flashed before me in that instant when I realized I may be swallowing the before mentioned pesky yellow jacket. I instituted my quick reflex gagging technique to hack that thing up. Shortly thereafter, I had this stinging sensation in the back of my throat. The dirty bugger must of stung me while I was hacking him out. My better half asked if I was allergic to them..to which I replied..I hope not...she gave me some Benadryl and I swallowed ice water the rest of the evening, hoping to heck that I don't have to go to ER with a swollen throat. The rest of the evening my throat felt like one of the worst sore throats I had ever had..ranked up there anyway. End of Story. [/QUOTE]
