a little Wednesday morning humor UPDATED WITH A PIC

So, if you are a visual person and you can picture this going on, you will laugh your *** off! Here it goes...

I am deathly afraid of spiders. It doesn't matter where they are, if I see one, I FREEZE. Well, last year, in our apartment, we found a strange looking bug. The front of it looked like a spider and the back looked like a cricket. The first time we saw this bug, it was crawling on the rug and I was grossed out, so FH grabbed a tissue and went to go kill it... WELL, it started JUMPING all over the room (like a cricket) and we both freaked out. I told our landlord, she called the exterminator and we haven't seen one since, well, until this morning and here is where the hysteria began...

I was sitting on the floor in front of my mirror doing my make-up. Fh had just left and I was going to leave in about 10 minutes. As I am sitting there, out of the corner of my eye, I see this big nasty bug crawling towards me. I freaked out, jumped up and froze. I stood there, in my little boy short underwear and tank top thinking, 'oh sh!t, what the hell am I going to do. I figured that I had to kill it (there was no way i was going to work with that thing in my apartment all day) so I look in my closet for something to step on it with... nothing but flip flops, and that sucker was too big for a flip flop. I then saw my uggs... I put them on (yes, at this point i have on underwear, uggs and a tank top) and i walk behind the bug (so he can't see me) and i lift up my leg to step on it, and it starts hopping all over the place. Now, I am screaming at the top of my lungs. Finally, the bug stops hopping and i throw a towel over it -- yes, I am talking about a bath towel -- and i can see it hopping under the towel. I jump on top of the towel like mad and hope to God that I killed that little sucker. I was too scared to look, so the towel is still on the bedroom floor.

I called FH to tell him because I was so proud of myself and he was proud too. he asked me what garbage i threw the dead bug in and I told him, 'what are you, nuts?!?!?! It's still on the floor under the towel, you have to pick it up when you get home.' He just sighed and laughed.

I found this quite amusing, hopefully it will give you a little a.m. chuckle, too
