It’s no secret that I don’t like am petrified of arthropods. I mean, I only make reference to my severe dislike of all things from the phylum Arthropoda, here, here and here.
So, I had just finished my glorious monthly nightly shower, and took a fresh towel off the top of the shelf in the bathroom. I started drying myself off and in slow motion noticed something drop from the towel, and IT started crawling! My mouth open, silently screaming, I run butt naked up the stairs to my husband who is by now intrigued as to the free show he is getting. And all I can say is “KILL IT!” *insert husband eye-roll here* He goes down the stairs and kills what he tells me is a beetle. You know, one of those crunches-when-your-husband-kills-it-for-you beetles!
Ok, you can start screaming now.

My kids would probably react by making a Bug Transporter and carrying it outside, and then wave goodbye to it.
Enjoy,

EWWW! I hate bugs more than anything. I just had one run across the living room floor last night. It was one of those water bugs - we’ve had a lot of rain. My hubs wasn’t home and I just kept thinking it was going to sneak up on me.
