I d...I'd just had the same fearful experience. I do not have a phobia of bugs. I just do not like for them to be on me. For instance, the night I saw the movie Arachnophobia, the power went out in the house. On my way to the circuit breaker box, a web wiped across my face. I FLIPPED out, wiping my head as if one of the spiders from the movie was upon me. of course, I'd laughed about it a minute later. Meanwhile, for decades, I've had a fear that one of these mila/centi/thousand legged things will drop from the ceiling on to my face. I hear that their bites hurt, but am not certain. I kill maybe three per year, catching two of the three on the ceiling. Now, I'm a man with well more than ten inches of hair; so I wear a satin "scull cap" to bed, for more than keeping my hair and scalp healthy. It also prevents me from feeling something in my hair and going berserk. Tonight -while sitting next to my desk- something hit my forehead which was already covered by my "scully". I'd assumed it might be one of them so I just stomped my feet wildly. A few minutes later, it comes crawling up onto my desk. it was injured, but not as injured (obliterated) as it became a few seconds later. Luckily I keep a fly swatter two feet from where I was sitting. As I was only wearing a t-shirt, I could swear it was aiming to land on my ...well, I'll just say, my "gender identifier". I'm just paranoid, right?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07617306371039167663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2635724921592274492.post-34557293017286441582010-04-13T09:44:05.604-04:002010-04-13T09:44:05.604-04:00Brit...please tell me you are joking. how the hec...Brit...please tell me you are joking. how the heck did a girl have a cockroach and a silverfish in her ear?!? now I will have nightmares. poor thing! Did you have to help get it out? <br /><br />and fyi - i only whipped out the phone camera AFTER the thing was dead. The picture of the actual bug (not the ghost pics) was just an image that came up when I googled "thousand leggers" to show you what kind of bug it had been. lolErinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11950701925531465133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2635724921592274492.post-430822410230836432010-04-10T16:13:33.004-04:002010-04-10T16:13:33.004-04:00i laughed....A LOT reading this...it reminds me of...i laughed....A LOT reading this...it reminds me of our old apartment and the silverfish that invaded when we first moved in...then at work the other day a little kid came in that had BOTH a cockroach and a silverfish in her ear!!!!!<br /><br />oh, im also impressed that you had time to whip out your camera and take pictures of your victim before he met his fate!! haha.Britneynoreply@blogger.com
