Okay, so yesterday I was stung for the first time... any good stories?

I had two wasps land in my hair. I felt something moving, so I poked it a few times... and got my first sting, right in the middle of my pointer finger. Then one of them stung my head, which hurt.

Any good stinging stories out there? Even lame ones, I don't care.

Update:

As a side note, I'm almost 26 now. That's a pretty long time of being careful. My friend hasn't been stung yet, and she's 29 1/2.

Update 2:

Thank you Happy for answering my question, I thought nobody would!

    My son is allergic to bumblebees (the big fat ones), when we found this out, we were in the middle of the country, well over 30 minutes away from any hospital. He went into shock and by the time we got him to the hospital he was legally dead. His face was the size of a pumpkin and he wound up in the PICU for 3 days, and in a regular room for another 2. Hes fine now, but we carry an epi-pen everywhere we go.
