Driving with a buzz
Is there anything more alarming while driving a car to find a bee or other stinging insect confined to your small space? If you're lucky enough to be at a stoplight or residential neighborhood, you can pull over and wait until the hornet flies away, but what if you're in the center lane of a major street going 50 or so? Instinctually you want to flinch away, to get up and run, but (hopefully) you're buckled in and you start paying more attention to the bee than the road...well, I survived such an encounter without being stung...what does it say about me that this is the most exciting event of my Labor Day weekend?
Speaking of which, summer is over. This will undoubtely go down as the most eventful summer of my entire life. Adios summer of 2005, glad to see you go.

I have had that happen on more than one occasion-bees, hornets, ants, and a few times, a spider. It's not so much the stinging with some of those creatures, it's the thought of them crawling up into my pant legs. A girl I knew once cut across three lanes of traffic at 70mph because one of those "stick bugs" was crawling around in her car.
