One day while shopping in Copacabana, I saw something dart out in my peripheral vision. The next thing I noticed there was something trapped between the arch of my foot and my sandal, about 5 to 6 inches long - antenna on one side of my foot and the anterior legs on the other. GROSS!!! I looked down and started madly kicking my foot. Eventually my sandal and the cockroach went flying but in the process, I had managed to gather a rather good sized crowd watching me hysterically trying to free my foot of the cockroach! (Embarrassing!). Once my sandal AND the cockroach were a half a block away, I calmly (and with as much dignity as possible) caught the closest taxi (with one shoe) and went home. I have never forgotten the feeling of that "shell" under my foot!!! I really hate those things! I have sooooo many other bug stories but think I will spare you.....
    KimAZ I would have had a heart attack,.....seriously......just the thought of that made me squirm. My dignity would have gone out of the window to !!! lol

So, to the sweet sweet music of Metallica, I started this frantic shake hoping to dislodge the critter while people looked on wondering if I had finally gone completely bonkers - and then when that didn't work and I could feel the thing crawling higher... well let's just say thank God for inventing the bra, without which that evening could have been really embarassing. For good measure I also proceeded to stomp thoroughly on my jumper as it whas laying on the floor.
    I think the spider escaped, though.
    Alekto, i looked at my hand when I was reading that !! Oh no I dont think I would have survived, I would have been screaming the place down, they would have carted me of to the funny farm !!! lol Dashed it got away !!! lol

    I can picture the party scene, Alekto! Love it. Hillarious!!! Once, I was riding in a car with the window half way down when "something" flew in and crawled down my blouse. I didn't give it a second thought before throwing off my blouse. Everyone around us at the stop light got quite a show as my striptease was accompanied by screaming and "the frantic shake". My husband didn't know what was going on but liked it! Men! Anyway, trapped under my bra we found ..... The dreaded housefly!

    yeah they look like giant mosquitoes - they don't go "beeeeeeeeeee" in the same way, so it feaks me out less than a mosquito, but still don't like them much.... I usually can muster enough control to not squash them right away and just open the window for them to get out (as in OMG GET OUT! GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT! oh well I'll have warned you... *splat*)

    I am terrified of grasshoppers. Something is wrong with them the way they jump into you instead away like normal pests. When I see one sitting in my path, I try to quietly sneak past but I am rarely successful. Eek - and when there is a cluster of them and they are jumping in all directions - EEK! Seriously, what is wrong with them??? Might have to Google that.
