See the Bee?


Sunflower & Bumble Bee #2

We had a really nice ride Friday and Saturday both. Perfect weather. It was nice to feel the sun beating down on my shoulders, the wind nice and warm.

Saturday we rode out to a new ice house they've just built called Drifters. Any of you locals, it was a nice ride thru the Sam Houston National Forest into Richards, Tx. and thay had pretty good burgers. Nice folks own the place and have put together a great setup there. We will be going back there, I'm sure.

After we finished our burgers, we decided to cut back across the forest to another hangout closer to home. As we turned onto the long, narrow, two lane highway, you could smell the fresh cut grass and see the big blue mowers in action. We eased thru them and I was happily taking in the puffy partly cloudy sky, the summery cut grass smell, the heat of the asphalt rising to my face, the wind whistling in my ears and the aroma of MilkMan's old shovelhead blasting down the road in front of me.

All of these great sensory feelings were suddenly and rudely interrupted by a sharp, SHARP.....fucking PAINFUL searing burn on ...MY CROTCH. Right on my peachka. Now, I'm doing 60 and struggling to keep up with all the boys in our group that live to make fun of me for riding too slow, like a girl. And now...with a bee stuck to the most sensitive private part on me. AND IT HURT. Bad. I reached down while not losing control of my bike and pulled the winged beast off of me. Of course I'd slowed by now and MilkMan dropped back to see what was up. I yelled at him and he...burst out laughing.

WTF?

Do you think I'd be laughing if he had a big yellow bumble bee stuck to his tallywacker?

Ok...maybe I would. :)

I sucked it up like a buttercup, caught up and made it to our next destination, with only my pride a little wounded. And a slightly puffy peachka.

OMG, I would of been in real trouble because I'm allergic. I can just picture the emergency room staff as they have to cut my pants off to check out the sting site because the swelling would of made my torso and legs enormous.

Sweetie has caught a bee in his jacket before and of course we've all swallowed bugs but I must say that a full frontal attack like this is a first for me.

Seriously? This is why I only posed on bikes in a bikini- the whole traveling at the speed of bugs/could sting the kitty thing never appealed to me. Hope all is well and you didn't have a bad reaction! (other than hubby's, lol)

I remember driving—or trying to drive—my car with a bee flying about me. It was not fun.

MilkMaid said...

LOL Helen, can you imagine trying to strip down on the road side to stick your little bee sting pen THERE?

Brighton...seriously. Completely the truth. All is well, LOL!

SSN - bees...are not my friends. On solid earth I can do some damage getting away from them.

Ok, I have to admit, I laughed. I know, I'm mean but that's hella funny, Milky.

Hope the peachka is ok.

MilkMaid said...

LOL Sign....yeah, laugh. :p Pechka is good today. No more stinger.

angela marie said...

Ow.


Super Ow.

I will not laugh! Oh but I thought a puffy peachka was a good thing.

Anyway, I got stung under the arm while I was white water rafting before and I have a couple of other stories. I ask you who expects to get stung at a time like you or I did. What a big shock.

Glad all that was injured was the pride a little. I think you did great keeping up. I am not sure I am man enough should the reverse happen to keep on biking.

Im trying hard not to laugh. But regardless, that just sounds too painful

G-Man said...

Milkmaid, maybe you better let Dr. Galen examine that sting....Just to make sure!
Anyway, your word for your cooter sort of hit home for me...
For you to use that word, someone in your family must be either Serbian, or Macedonian, or Yugoslavian...
Am I right?

...Great riding story!!

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

I suppose it's too much to hope for video or even a pic? LOL!

Crabby said...

Yanno. It just occurred to me that if a man got stung by a bee in his netherland...and it swelled up....well....could be an awesome opportunity for some lucky gal.
Assuming he didn't scream too much while you were taking advantage of him.

MilkMaid said...

AngelaMarie, ow would have been a good word to sream at that moment.

LOL Barman...mebbe it is! ;)

It's ok MisstressM, you are in good laughing company lol

Dr G...I haven't played doctor in years. Ready?

Crabby..why'd I KNOW you'd ask for a picture. HA.....:/
