Well, the other night we were walking home..(more like running cuz we were out late) and there was this wire hanging over the side walk. Well it was hanging right in front of my face, so without thinking I swiped at it to get it out of the way as we were running by...
Well... it was a live power line! The shock ran up my arm and I dropped to the ground... Somehow the pain or the shock stopped at my sleeve... When we got home my whole arm was killing me. My fingers were numb, it hurt to flex my wrist and my hand, but as I was running my hand up my arm I realized the pain stopped where the sleeve of my garment starts. Above that I felt no shock and had no pain!! So, I´m pretty sure my garments pretty much saved my life! (yes mom, my arm is ok now) So yeah... that was pretty cool but really crazy too!
Also the other day we were at this investigators house and two obispas flew in.. they´re like wasps but three times the size and brown. Also the sting is pretty much lethal. So my companion and I made clubs out of this cardboard the lady had in her house and started killing them!!! They are so big and thick that when you hit them out of the air you have to beat them down like five times to acutally kill them. If you don't completely smush them with your shoe they dont die!!! haha So, then we went out in her yard and there were like 5 nests. We decided we had to get rid of them for this lady cuz they are really dangerous. So I snuck up to the nest to try and get them all in one blow... and of course when I swung at the nest I only hit the corner of it which resulted in about 50 of them flying out very angrily! Basically what happened after that was a battle to the death between my companion and I and about 50 obispas!!! I killed 20 and my companion got like 16 and the rest either got away or flew in their other nest in the tree. Somehow neither of us got stung - it was pretty much awesome!!!
Also this dog that had rabies really bad started chasing me! I took off running (like an idiot) but luckily my companion stood him down with a rock and he backed off... haha (I'm still a greeny)
Also, I got a stomach infection!!! YAY!!!! haha I haven't held any food down for like three days!!! But somehow I still have energy so I'll be all right.
Other than that, life is good here. We have a baptism this Saturday, two on the twentieth, and one or two the 27th! So we're having some good success at least. Zone conference is Wednesday so that's pretty cool."
