I'm really pretty good with bugs, but I would have FREAKED OUT had I picked that up and realized it was real. I get shivers just thinking about it.<BR/><BR/>dammit, I'm totally unsettled and I have to go to bed... I bet I'm going to have nightmares now.LLhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04431706155081017734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-51178827296963779132008-04-09T19:12:00.000-07:002008-04-09T19:12:00.000-07:00Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh. I have to go shower now. I could only look for a second as my feet reflexively left the ground for the rung of the chair. I want to go back but I'm scared.

Ye gods, I did think you must be a bit of a sissy until I followed the link. I wonder if there are more out there?<BR/><BR/>Sorry...Homestead Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05609656644515059452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-13297442367951492352008-04-09T13:24:00.000-07:002008-04-09T13:24:00.000-07:00Oh.Mah.Gah. What if you had picked it up and it was still ALIVE??????? It's stories like this that make me feel *somewhat* better about living in the frozen north.

When the animal is irritated, a poison is supposedly produced near the base of each leg and dropped into the wounds causing inflammation and irritation."<BR/><BR/>SCARY!Kylahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03311014761113076785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-41989934925667631732008-04-09T11:04:00.000-07:002008-04-09T11:04:00.000-07:00OMG!! That description is terrifying. I don't do bugs either but I think anyone would be afraid of that. Do you have an exterminator on speed dial now?Alison Cherryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00774052502452329437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-40550332959065294202008-04-09T09:41:00.000-07:002008-04-09T09:41:00.000-07:00DUDE! We had one of those on our LIVING ROOM WALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<BR/><BR/>We both just stared at it for what felt like hours, then we tried to smash it with our Swiffer, but it jogged away into our bathroom, and we have not used that bathroom in months.<BR/><BR/>Kidding, but we are still seriously skeeved out.Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07270389106604867450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-35885038947970511632008-04-09T08:35:00.000-07:002008-04-09T08:35:00.000-07:00FU-REAKY!!!!! OMG. I would have died. I freaked out over the 2 spiders I killed in my bathroom while my husband has been out of town. BTW, I am calling the Pest Control company to come out to do our quarterly pest control NOW because I don't do spiders no matter how small they are.Someone Being Mehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08984828094257765105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-73605715472417296832008-04-09T08:06:00.000-07:002008-04-09T08:06:00.000-07:00That would definitely make me scream too, and I am not generally squeamish around bugs.<BR/><BR/>As a total aside... we had to do a bug collection over the summer when I was in middle school. We all had pretty much the same stuff except the one girl who had spent the summer in Japan. Those were some of the biggest and scariest bugs I have ever seen. And perhaps the reason I have never visited that particular country.My Buddy Mimihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15810663983572345550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-60336624216904420092008-04-09T07:24:00.000-07:002008-04-09T07:24:00.000-07:00ewww!

If I recall correctly, Ryan is pretty good at flinging things over the fence with a shovel. I seem to remember an incident in the backyard of the Alamo involving Rossby and something that belonged to Patty.Shannonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07638142897290829654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-54703843995684325852008-04-09T05:30:00.000-07:002008-04-09T05:30:00.000-07:00Well, peeing isn't what I just did in my pants.Lizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08172318473717634353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581292130034617098.post-17848437205765247872008-04-08T21:30:00.000-07:002008-04-08T21:30:00.000-07:00I had something in mind...maybe red with yellow polka dots...you know, like what you'd see on A Bug's Life or something.
