Piranhas!

I was attached by Piranhas!! Ok, so it was probably just a crab trying to bite my foot off. FINE, it just pinched my toe (the ring toe), but it still hurt! And even more than it hurt, it scared me to death!!

Alright, now that I'm done with my drama (maybe...), we went to the beach this weekend for a MUCH needed break and some family time. We decided to go to Tyndell Air Force Base because they have a lot of good shells and sand bars. I decided to take a walk down the beach and saw several really great sand bars and thought "I'd bet there are some sand dollars out there, I think I'll go have a look." Well, I was at least a 1/2 mile away from Dustin and Mya, just minding my own business in about 8-10 inches of water when I was ruthlessly attacked!! Did I mention I was minding my own business? No respect I tell you. So, I jump and scream simultaneously and feel it by my foot again. At that point, I run out of the water and limp back to Dustin and Mya to tell them of my brush with death. Dustin was so sweet to reply "Do you want me to pee on it?" In his own defense, I said that to him earlier in the day when he got scraped on the sand while snorkeling...but I almost died.

Other than my little incident, we had a great time, and Mya loved it. I love the beach!

Yikes! Yep, there are things that live in the water, you know, and they're out to get you. Mwa-ha-ha!
