Get jook!
Hail up. A shortish post while I finish my breakfast…..ok, you want to know wah me a nyam? Two slices of multi grain bread with cheddar cheese, two slices of paw paw (papaya), an otaheite (nuh how how de ra$$ dat suppose to spell) and some ortanique juice. My vitamins will top it off, and after a visit to the boyz room (will spare you all the details of that), I should be good to go for work.
Now what is up with the title? Well, being a male you might be wondering yourslef….. After all, being the ones with the ’spare parts’, we dudes usually are the ones doing the jooking…nuh true? Well, guess what? Get your mind outta de gutter…a nuh dat me a talk bout! So, what den?
Let me share a short one with you. Monday night gone, I was on the patio. It was about 10PM, and I was in my ‘man o yard’ garb…(AKA boxers). There I was pretty relaxed with a rum and coconut water sipping, while doing some reading on the patio in a comfortable chair. All of a sudden, out of the blue, I felt as if a prickle had stuck me in my right leg……didn’t feel very hot, but it did get me distracted enough and had me looking at the chair to see what could have caused that. After about a minute, the feeling had more or less subsided and I found nutten, so I passed it off as ….well, nutten. Went back to reading and sipped some more of the goodly VX and coconut water. ‘Bout two minutes later I felt as if an injection needle had been jabbed into my foot again……. rassclaat!! I tell you, I cuss some heap o bad wud. Held on to my leg in distress and then saw the likkle shyte of an arthropod that was responsible for my pain! Of course, I must have killed the damn wasp about fifteen times! Turns out the wretched thing with wings and and a sting, was building a nest beneath the chair, and I suppose my leg was friggin up his plans. Anyhow, my leg got all whealed up, red, swollen and hot. I had to doctor it myself and is only since last night that things more or less returning to normal. I tell you, I have been stung by bees before, but I think this is my first close encounter with a wasp. All I can say is try stay far from dem. So, overall, I ended up being on the receiving end of a most unpleasant jook! Personally, I prefer to do it the male way, and continue to be the jooker rather than the jookee! And, my jooks don’t cause pain either….strictly pleasure!
Anyhow, in case you forgot, the weekend looms, its TGIF time. Enjoy it. And BTW, for the locals who may pass here…..what a rain sweet last night!
May 18th, 2007 at 9:58 am Rains were good fuh real but we could have done without the 1 hour lightning storm though. I’ve never had so much lightning around me for such an extended period, one after the other.
May 18th, 2007 at 12:58 pm aye, wasp ddoan sleep at night? lordee..what doctoring methods yuh used tuh heal de pain?
May 18th, 2007 at 11:06 pm Hehe. Ah bwoy. Hush. Glad the weekend is here, stressed out all week with reports and took some home for weekend work. Had to turn down my usual sailing invitation. But, I’ll be relieving some o’ dat stress in the pool tomorrow morning. I loooooove when it rains.
May 18th, 2007 at 11:25 pm Lawd man Doc, how yu close the comments dem so quick man. chuuups. Just saw the post ’bout the gunshots and wrote a lengthy enough comment, press ‘post’ only to see that you close off comments
May 19th, 2007 at 9:19 am Ahh bwoy, Gela, its like this. The damned spammers are on the Doc’s case, bwoy. If we leave the comments open too long, they just take his site over. If the Doc was still blogging seriously, I would move his blog over to Wordpress so that he could enjoy the protection of Askimet, but it does look like a lot of effort when you look at his blog and think that every post may well be his last. Anyway, Doc, I have been stung by a wasp once. I was about 9 years old at the time. I was playing in my backyard when a wasp came buzzing around. It came closer and closer, and being young and stupid, I started to fantasize about being able to commune with and control animals. I held out my hand and the was p landed on it. I looked on and was in awe at my talents. The wasp sat upon my hand for a couple of seconds, its wings moving slowly… As I watched, its abdomen began to move, bending down towards my hand. Suddenly: Nuff, nuff pain! the little bugger had stung me! Pure bawling after that! Trust me, that sure burst my bubble re the mind control thing!
May 19th, 2007 at 11:31 am Camp…I rubbed it with Dermovate (the most potent topical steroud) worldwide, eventually had to take some anti inflammatories for a few days as well as a two day course of antibiotics. Things have finally settled now. Aah Scratch…..so, I guess any plans to take ‘advantage’ of the rainy weather and do some ‘homework’ were spoiled by the youngster’s presence in the bed eeh? Hush… Gela, you can always drop the comment on this post if you wish. Feel free. The Bull is right, drastic measures needed to be taken as the site was being taken over by spammers like locusts to rahtid!
May 19th, 2007 at 5:45 pm So I should continue to scream & run in the other direction when I see a wasp?! I have never been stung, and the fact that you had to take antibiotics, steroids, & antiinflamatories…and the thought of sitting in the emergency room waiting for a dr. to prescribe something for my pain…I’ll keep running. Thanks for the info.
May 20th, 2007 at 9:35 am Move it MB, yu know seh Doc not leaving the blogdom at all, him just talking, him love us too much
May 20th, 2007 at 6:45 pm Yeah I know what those buggers string feels like! I was once ganged by a few of them who certainly made well with my arm several times.
May 21st, 2007 at 12:08 am frankly wasps and bees are ENEMIES!!! They get me bad!!!
May 21st, 2007 at 12:10 am BTW - Doc, what email should I use for you - No… am not seeking online medical diagnosis - just a query as to your knowledge of a product and if i should RUN to the DR!!!
