I completely forgot

to check in to the forum yesterday. But hey, I also forgot to go to the Cardiologist for an Echo Cardiogram.
Nothing wrong though, I have a great memory, it is just extremely short.

My commute from Vegas to Phoenix was uneventful. Only saw a few law enforcement officials near Wickenburg. I don't miss the photo enforcement vans that used to be along the route.

I wish everyone on the forum a great week. Drive safely.

stung in my right foot last night by a Bark Scorpion

I was stung in my right foot last night by a Bark Scorpion around midnight. I managed to catch up to it and kill it after it stung me. It still hurts like hell and I got very little sleep. Kind of felt like a red hot 16d nail or glass being stuck into my foot when it stung me. My foot is numb up to my ankle but still hurts like hell, kind of like pins and needles and burning sensation all over my foot. 28 years down here and the first time anything nailed me. According to the experts the pain will last up to 2 days.

Link to what others wrote about what getting stung by a Bark Scorpion is like and I totally agree with them:

You & I are pretty close here in Pasco, Charlie. Did you get some of the close lightning strikes like we did. shock Some of them were a little too close for comfort to suit me.

Some of the wind gusts were pretty strong, too. From what I heard, today's rain is supposed to be further east. We need the rain for sure... but I can do without the lightning.

Watching the local news tonight and they reported a woman standing next to her car in the driveway during that storm yesterday was struck. I don't remember exactly where this happened (city) but her husband found her on the ground in the fetal position. Not sure of her current condition.
