Yellow Jackets (Paper Wasps)

Yesterday afternoon, I was standing in my kitchen, minding my own business when as paper wasp (yellow jacket) decided to fly in the window and onto my foot!

I froze.

It climbed up my foot and past my ankle then began it's way up my leg! Crap! What do I do? In order to remove it from my body I have to move. 

What do I kill it with? 

Of course I'm going to kill it, I don't want to piss it off and risk being stung!

Too late, it stung me! Twice! 
(Thankfully I'm not allergic, at least I haven't been in the past, and so far, so good.)
I blurred the edges to spare you my hairy legs.

I grabbed a fly swatter. 
(Thankfully I had one conveniently close!)

I think I beat myself as much as I did that wasp, but it's dead. 

I think. 

No. It is.

See.
R.I.P. Yellow jacket.
