Thank you for sharing all of the information on Lepidoptera--the good, the bad and the ugly! I am so sorry you had a bad encounter and hope the steroids and Benydril bring fast-acting relief. Take good care of yourself- Joan

The reader might get a preview how this is going to go with you tongue-in-cheek line: " I order a... 'Bologna Sandwich' and I get a 'Bunch of Baloney!' I'm glad you put the violence warning because that is clearly a violent caterpiller. I was going to relocate a fairly good sizes long beetle. I foolishly picked it up I and gently placed it in my palm to let it comfortably ride to the outside in good health. That little SOB grabbed onto my flesh with needle point claws and BIT or STUNG me. It left a welt which lasted for days. I am sorry your was even worse. I hope writing about it helped in some way. You wrote your account in such a way that you draw the writer in to scramble and I did with my Dogpile search engine to see what your aforementioned moths look like. I guess if any laughter came from this it is clearly a "gallows laugh" Well written.

That is crazy. I'm not sure how to review this, but I need the member bucks and this is the highest paying so here goes.

Firstly the way you wrote it stuck me as almost a poem. The thoughts are scattered and although I get the gist of what is happening, I feel like if it were written as a story there would be a level of detail that is simply missing. As a poem it would need refinement as well but obviously it is written as a chapter in a book.

It was confusing to me, because these seem to be diary or journal (if that sounds less like a teenage girl thing) entries.

Still the way you write is entertaining to say the least. Some sort of an odd mix of poetry and short stories.

Good luck in your future endeavors and with any more insects you may encounter!

Hi Ricky. Are you really ill? Did you mean to misspell venomous? Not sure what vemenous means. In any case I hope you are OK. I will await further posts. Thank you for sharing

    It was a deadly and poisonous caterpillar.
    Light lime in color with spike type-hairs.
    The rash is slowly dissapating.
    They gave me a shot...
    OUCH!!
    And some liquid Bentdril
    Plus a prescription.
    The shot or prescription is a steroid.
    The Incredible Hulk?
    LOL!!!

That would be awful, especially after feeling so good about finishing your piece. I do hope you're alright. Incidents like this are why I'm so scared of bugs, especially the flying kind. It's well written, interesting but you might want to look at Vemonously. I'm sure spelling was the least of your concerns at the time.
