Jun. 3rd, 2008 05:26 pmRecount a remarkable incident involving insects.
When we first moved to Texas, we lived in a little efficiency apartment close to the Air Force Base. I remember one night, Mom, my brother, and I were watching TV.
The apartment was little. I mean, little. I was stretched out on the floor watching TV, because there wasn't enough room for a couch in the room.
I remember what we were watching Walker, Texas Ranger, and I distinctly recall every movement and noise made after I found the bug.
It started with a tickle. On my leg. I scratched lightly, distracted by the show.
Chuck Norris was racing around Dallas in his big black truck, chasing bad guys.
Then I felt another tickle.
Chuck was redecorating a bar using bad guys as demolition equipment.
The tickle was getting annoying. So I looked down at my leg. Imagine my surprise when I came face to face with this....
( Cut for bug pic....come on cowards, I had it ON me.... )
