Eeeeeekkkkkk!

Imagine sitting on the couch watching TV, then looking down at your stomach and seeing this -


What would you do? This happened to me last night and I was a little freaked out. Erik was sitting next to me and quickly picked up a magazine to remove the giant insect from my shirt. It was seriously one of the biggest insects I have seen inside a house!

This raises the question....where the heck did it come from? How did it journey all the way onto my stomach without me noticing? I was so grossed out that I ran up and took a shower to ensure the fact that there were no more giant bugs crawling on me. But first, I grabbed my camera and took a couple pictures to document the event. What can I say, I'm slightly obsessed.

*For the record, the enormous insect was about 1 1/2 inches long. It was on my stomach people! Not just wondering along the floor.

That freaks me out just hearing about it. That is one nasty looking thing too. I had a bug on my pillow case the other day and I was freaked that I had bugs all in my hair. I couldn't sleep for hours.

I can just picture you freaking out! Your scream was probably heard in the entire complex. It's great to have a picture to substantiate the truthfulness of the story. Looks like a cousin to the roaches some of us get in warmer climates.

so that is seriously gross and I would have nightmares about that stupid bug if it happened to me. Good thing it probablly is harmless but the fact that I live really close to you makes me worry that I might find one...yuck

So I know I already made a comment but I went to the park for ward play date and those ugly creatures were everywhere. Bree would not get off the slide because they were surrounding it. i told everyone what happened to you and they said that it is a June Bug and they are harmless but they were freaking me out. yuck again!!
