It’s always such a special feeling to be roused from your slumbers by the gentle pitty-pat of bugfeet on your face.

Bugs don't bother me that much. The mouse that ran across my forehead in my old apartment... yeah, that kind of had me awake and swearing vociferously for a while...

Eek - your new house is haunted! After you find some way to drive off the little beasts, maybe you can use your post for the first line of a drabble.

When I first moved to Texas, I was driven out of my first apartment by a dive-bombing giant flying roach. After emptying a whole can of Raid into the place, I spent what seems in memory most of the night standing the parking lot waiting for it to be safe to enter. I was young and foolish then and trust you to think of something less dramatic.

I haven't seen but a few of the little visitors, not two of which have matched so far, and they ain't cocker-roaches, or I'd be a lot more vociferous. And the bug spray would probably kill me, whereas the bugs is just a nuisance. A squishy nuisance to be sure, but livable.

Eeeeek!The last time a spider ran over my neck in the middle of the night, I lost a year of my life.

A fly flap? (She wonders if that's what she'd call a flyswatter. It's very descriptive if it is.)

I have, alas, graduated from fright to, "oh, &^%$# not again!"

Yes, but what a lovely way to come up with a "hobbity" term to sneak into a story. A flap on a stick to chase flies with!

I'll admit to a certain fascination with what happens when words are translated literally piece for piece instead of for the whole meaning. I was told once that the Icelandic word for "lawn mower" means "thing you push to make it cut the grass shorter"... I don't know how true that is, but it's a great story!

If I'd ever tried that on my cat he'd have shredded me.

On the other hand, when I had a cat, nothing lived long enough to challenge his place of honor on top my sleeping form anyway.

My cat got a moth for me last night. *pets * brave hunter* But generally he's pretty live and let live, about bugs anyway.

icky! I was awoken to the dog slobber on my face from a constantly licking dog. And yesterday by a spider, so wonderfully taking a chunk out of my foot.

Heheheheheheh.

Actually I like dogs too. But they are not bright bunnies, no matter how many tricks they know. I've never met one yet who learned a thing by eating a bee. Heck, the dog I had when I was a kid never learned better than not to try to eat soap bubbles, and he used to get the funniest expression when he tasted the soap!

I think dogs are smart, and can learn.
That depends on what breed it is actually.
But I think that she has also learned, despite the fact that they sting her, that they taste like honey!
Hi...I...lowered my cholesterol. *hint honeynutcheerios commercial*
