AAAAHHHH!!!!

The most horrible bug I have ever seen in my entire LIFE (and I would include the icky New Zealand bug that looked like a giant flying cockroach and landed on my face once) is in my room at this very moment. At least, I am not sure...it ran out of my sight, under my curtains. I am hoping it left somehow, but it may not have. It is so horrible, I don't even know what it is. It has a flexible body like a centipede, but it isn't thick like one. It is about as long as my pinky, and has something like a gazillion legs to the tenth power. And it is very, very fast.

*shudder*

Why do bugs like me so, when all I do is hate them??

(I just went to see if the bug was gone. I moved the curtains, and no bug, but a SPIDER ran out! Ugh!!!! I think I need to sleep somewhere else tonight.)

Wow.

Sounds like it's time to bomb the place gracky.

Bug bomb that is ... don't really blow it up. That would be fruitless.

wow, i don't even know what a weta is and i'm creeped out.

I think that the unidentified bugs are the worst. Because you sort of want to find out what it is, but on the other hand, sometimes it's just better now to know. But man grace, you got the double whammy: unidentified and hiding. I have on occasion slept in my living room when i know there is a bug taking residence somewhere in my room. It's creepy to know that they are there, wandering around, possibly walking across your face, when you are sleeping! Or at least, that's my fear...

What you need is a good pair of combat boots and some Windex. You will be surprised how satisfying the cruch of the exoskeleton is. Unless, of course, you have carpet, in which case Windex won't really help.
