    Years back, I had too close an interaction with one. Was morning and I rolled out a bed, put on a shirt from a luggage bag and walked to the kitchen. I felt a needle into my stomach but my first thought was maybe a thread from my waist line. Felt another needle jam and looked down the neck hole of my shirt.

    That’s when I saw the ugly mf crawling up the shirt side of my inner shirt toward me. I yanked that T off so fast. It was able to scurry under the oven and I never saw it again. Had cramps the entire day and minor bruising shortly after but that was it.

      You didn’t go to hospital? How did you know you weren’t going to die?

      Sincerely, someone about 1000 miles from my closest Scorpion.

        I honestly didn’t know what was going to happen. I was house sitting my parents place and they don’t live close to a hospital. A quick Google search and I assumed I’d be okay. If it didn’t work out that way, well, I was ready for that too.
