allergic to crabs

I ate a 3 lbs dungeness crab (much like the one above, but less...saucie) the other day for dinner and I woke up the next morning at 6 AM with constricted airways and hives all over my body. I seriously was wheezing for a good hour trying to breathe. I still itch...That crab was good though. Hopefully I don't die when I eat my next crab, although the Surgeon General would say "STOP, No more crabs for you young man!"

But without crabs, life is just not worth living I tell ya...I mean look at that thing, how can something so ugly taste so good and be so deadly at the same time???? It's an amazing animal...it must be eaten...by me!

I think I'll drink some benadryl before bed next time I eat a crab.

FACT OF THE DAY: did you know that benadryl has antidepressant properties and it led to the discovery of that phenomenal pill of placidity...prozac.

2ND FACT OF THE DAY: did you know that you could have an allergic reaction to benadryl causing hives? Well you could, so if you're taking it to get rid of hives only to find more hives, well don't be surprised
